This socket is backed by a lifetime guarantee, offering peace of mind regarding its quality and durability against manufacturing defects.
How deep is the socket wall?

Troubleshooting
Socket does not fit fastener securely.
Verify that you are using the correct size socket (105mm) and that the fastener is a standard 105mm size. Ensure the fastener head is not damaged or deformed.
Impact wrench slips or spins within the socket.
Confirm that your impact wrench has a 1-inch square drive and that the drive anvil is fully engaged with the socket's drive opening. Ensure both the tool and socket drive areas are clean and free of debris.
Socket appears to be wearing or deforming prematurely.
Check that you are using the socket with an appropriate impact tool and not exceeding its intended torque limits. Avoid using the socket for prying or hammering. Ensure the fastener is properly aligned and not cross-threaded.
Rust or corrosion on the socket surface.
Wipe the socket clean and dry it thoroughly. Apply a light coating of oil suitable for tools to the exterior to protect the phosphate finish. Store in a dry location.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup & Compatibility
This socket is designed for use with impact tools featuring a 1-inch square drive. Ensure your impact wrench, breaker bar, or torque multiplier is specifically rated for a 1-inch drive to prevent damage to either tool. It is not intended for use with standard hand ratchets unless they are also equipped with a 1-inch drive mechanism. Always ensure the socket is fully and securely seated onto the fastener before applying power or torque.
Care Instructions
To maintain the performance and longevity of your Loops Deep Impact Socket:
- Cleaning: After each use, wipe the socket clean with a dry or slightly damp cloth to remove dirt, grease, and debris. Avoid using harsh solvents that could damage the phosphate finish.
- Storage: Store the socket in a dry environment to prevent rust. A tool chest or socket organizer is recommended. Ensure it is not stored in direct contact with other ferrous metals for extended periods to minimize galvanic corrosion.
- Inspection: Periodically inspect the socket for any signs of excessive wear, cracks, or damage, especially around the drive opening and the hex opening. If significant damage is observed, discontinue use.
