Hex Impact Socket 1/2" 24mm Long – NEO Tools 12-324

Long 24 mm hex impact socket with a 1/2" drive from NEO Tools, model 12-324, designed for use with impact wrenches and pneumatic or electric tools. The extended length and hex profile facilitate engagement with nuts and bolts positioned in recessed or hard-to-reach locations, making the socket suitable for automotive, industrial and general maintenance work. The socket is engineered to withstand the high torque and percussive forces produced by impact tools while maintaining a secure fit on fasteners.

Advantages

The 24 mm hex profile offers precise contact with fastener flats to reduce rounding and slipping. The long design increases reach to access recessed bolts without removing surrounding components. Built for impact applications, the socket is made from durable impact-rated steel and heat-treated to resist deformation under repeated high-torque use. A 1/2" drive interface ensures compatibility with a wide range of impact wrenches and adapters commonly used in workshops.

Suitable for

• Automotive repair and tire service where recessed wheel nuts or suspension fasteners are present
• Industrial maintenance on machinery with deep-seated bolts
• Construction and assembly tasks requiring high-torque fastening or loosening
• General workshop use with pneumatic or electric impact tools

Key specifications

• Drive size: 1/2"
• Socket profile: 6-point hex (24 mm)
• Length: long/extended design for recessed fasteners
• Material: impact-rated, heat-treated steel for durability
• Intended use: for impact wrench and high-torque applications

How to use

Select a compatible 1/2" drive impact wrench or adapter and attach the socket securely to the tool. Align the 6-point hex socket over the nut or bolt head and operate the impact tool at appropriate torque settings for the fastener size and application. For loosening, use short bursts if the fastener is corroded or seized; for tightening, apply the final torque with a torque wrench if a precise torque specification is required. Inspect the socket before use for cracks or excessive wear, and replace it if any damage is found.

Usage recommendations

Use the socket only with impact-rated tools and accessories; do not use impact sockets with hand-only ratchets. Wear appropriate eye and hand protection when operating impact tools. Store the socket in a dry, organized tool tray to prevent corrosion and to preserve hex geometry for reliable engagement with fasteners.
