Hex Impact Socket 1/2" 24mm, NEO tools 12-224

NEO tools hex impact socket with a 1/2" drive and 24 mm opening is made for use with impact wrenches and heavy-duty hand tools. The six-point design engages hex fasteners and bolts securely to transmit high torque while reducing rounding of corners. Constructed from alloy steel with a heat-treated finish, the socket is intended for repeated industrial and automotive use where durability and reliable connection matter.

Advantages

The 6-point profile provides firm contact with hex heads to minimize slipping and stripping under high torque. A 1/2" drive size ensures compatibility with common impact wrenches and breaker bars used in workshops and service garages. Heat-treated alloy steel construction improves resistance to wear and impact loads, while precision-machined internal surfaces preserve fit and tear resistance over time.

Suitable for

• Automotive repair and maintenance — removing and tightening bolt heads on engines, suspension and chassis components
• Industrial maintenance — service tasks on machinery and equipment requiring high torque
• Construction and assembly — fastening hex bolts and heavy fasteners in structural work
• Home workshops — heavy-duty DIY tasks that need an impact-rated socket

Key specifications

• Drive size: 1/2" compatible with standard impact wrenches and breaker bars
• Socket opening: 24 mm for 6-point hex fasteners
• Contact profile: 6-point design for secure engagement with hex heads
• Material: heat-treated alloy steel for increased strength and impact resistance
• Finish: corrosion-resistant treatment suitable for workshop environments

How to use

Select the 24 mm hex impact socket and attach it securely to a 1/2" drive impact wrench or ratchet. Place the socket squarely over the hex fastener, ensuring full engagement of the 6-point profile. When using an impact wrench, apply controlled bursts of power and avoid constant maximum torque to reduce stress on fasteners. For tightening, follow the specified torque settings for the fastener or component and use a calibrated torque tool if exact values are required.

Usage recommendations

Inspect the socket for cracks, deformation, or excessive wear before each use. Use only with impact-rated tools and avoid using the socket on rounded or damaged fasteners. Store in a dry place and clean after use to maintain the finish and prevent corrosion.
