Socket 36 mm 1/2" (6-point) Rockforce RF-44536

Rockforce 36 mm 1/2" 6-point impact socket RF-44536 is a heavy-duty socket designed for use with 1/2" drive impact wrenches and ratchets. The six-point profile matches hex fasteners to reduce rounding and ensure direct torque transfer. Manufactured for demanding automotive, heavy machinery and industrial maintenance tasks, this 36 mm socket provides a secure fit on hex bolts and nuts where high torque and impact use are required.

Advantages

The six-point design concentrates contact on the flats of fasteners to lower the risk of rounding and slipping. Constructed for impact applications, the socket withstands repeated torque and shock loads from impact tools. Its 1/2" drive interface ensures compatibility with common impact wrenches and breaker bars, while the precise 36 mm sizing provides consistent engagement with metric hex fasteners.

Suitable for

• Automotive wheel and suspension maintenance
• Heavy machinery assembly and disassembly
• Industrial maintenance and repair tasks requiring 36 mm sockets
• Workshop use with 1/2" drive impact wrenches and ratchets

Key specifications

• Drive size: 1/2" (12.7 mm)
• Socket type: 6-point impact socket
• Nominal size: 36 mm
• Designed for use with impact tools
• Intended for hex fasteners

How to use

Select the 36 mm socket and attach it securely to a compatible 1/2" drive impact wrench or ratchet. Position the socket squarely over the hex fastener to ensure full engagement on the flats. Apply controlled torque using the impact tool or hand ratchet as required by the task. After use, inspect the socket for signs of wear or damage and store it in a tool organizer to prevent corrosion and maintain readiness.

Usage recommendations

Use this 6-point impact socket only with tools and torque levels appropriate for impact-rated sockets. Avoid using damaged sockets and replace any socket that shows cracking, deformation, or excessive rounding. For best results on stubborn fasteners, apply penetrating lubricant and use gradual, controlled impacts rather than sustained excessive force.
