This 26mm 1" drive impact socket from US PRO Tools is designed for professionals and serious DIYers who need a durable and reliable tool for heavy-duty automotive and industrial applications. Its key benefit is exceptional strength and longevity due to its hardened steel construction and protective black phosphate coating. A potential caveat is its large 1" drive size, which requires compatible ratchets and torque wrenches.

The socket is forged from steel, which is then hardened and tempered for enhanced durability.
The black phosphate coating provides protection against rust and corrosion, extending the tool's lifespan.
This socket has a 1" drive size, meaning it is designed to fit on tools with a 1" square drive output.
While designed for impact use, it can be used with any compatible 1" drive tool, including high-torque standard ratchets or breaker bars. However, its impact-resistant features are best utilized with an impact wrench.
Wipe it clean with a dry or slightly damp cloth after use. Store it in a dry environment to prevent rust. Avoid harsh solvents.
The 6-point design offers a stronger grip on the fastener's hex head compared to 12-point sockets, reducing the risk of the socket slipping or 'camming out,' which can damage both the socket and the fastener.
The total length of the socket is 80mm.
Ensure you are using a tool with a 1" drive. Check both the socket's drive opening and the tool's drive tang for debris or damage. Clean both and re-attempt attachment.
Ensure you are using the correct size socket (26mm). Apply steady, increasing torque. For impact use, ensure your impact wrench has sufficient power and the socket is properly seated on the fastener.
Clean the rust using a wire brush or fine-grit sandpaper. Dry the socket thoroughly and apply a light coat of tool oil or WD-40 to the affected area and store in a dry place.
Setup: This socket is ready to use out of the box. Simply attach it to a compatible 1" drive ratchet, breaker bar, or impact wrench. Ensure the drive mechanism of your tool is clean and free of debris before attaching the socket.
Compatibility: This socket features a 1" square drive. It is compatible with any tool (ratchets, impact wrenches, torque wrenches, extensions) that has a corresponding 1" male drive.
Care: To maintain optimal performance and longevity:
