Socket wrench impact 3/4" 23 mm 6-point YATO F-46523

YATO impact socket 3/4" drive, 23 mm size, 6-point profile is a purpose-built tool for high-torque fastening with impact wrenches and pneumatic tools. The socket is heat-treated and manufactured for repeated use under heavy loads; its 6-point geometry ensures a positive engagement with hex fasteners to minimise rounding and slippage. Designed for automotive, industrial and workshop environments, this 3/4-inch drive 23 mm socket is intended for applications that require durable, impact-rated fittings.

Advantages

The hardened 6-point construction provides secure contact with bolt heads and nuts, reducing the risk of stripping. Material and heat-treatment choices improve resistance to shock and wear during repeated impact use. A 3/4" drive compatibility ensures straightforward connection to standard impact wrenches and extensions commonly used in garages and industrial maintenance. The compact 23 mm size fits a wide range of medium-to-large fasteners encountered in vehicle and machinery repair.

Suitable for

• Automotive wheel and suspension fastener removal and installation
• Heavy machinery maintenance and assembly
• Workshop use with pneumatic and electric impact tools
• Industrial bolting tasks requiring high torque

Key specifications

• Drive size: 3/4 inch
• Socket size: 23 mm
• Profile: 6-point (hex)
• Intended use: impact-rated for pneumatic and electric impact tools
• Construction: hardened steel with heat treatment for impact resistance

How to use

Attach the socket to a compatible 3/4" impact wrench or adaptor and ensure the retaining mechanism (pin or ring) is engaged if applicable. Position the 6-point socket squarely over the fastener head to achieve full contact across the flats, then apply torque with controlled short bursts when using an impact tool. For tightening, follow the torque specifications appropriate for the fastener and application to avoid over-torquing. Inspect the socket before each use for signs of cracking, deformation or excessive wear and replace if damaged.

Usage recommendations

Use this 23 mm 6-point impact socket specifically with impact-rated tools; avoid using it with hand ratchets or breaker bars for prolonged levering beyond intended torque, and always follow safety procedures including eye protection and proper tool maintenance to extend service life.
