FAQs

What material are these impact sockets made from?

The sockets are manufactured from chrome vanadium steel, which is known for its strength and durability.

Are these sockets suitable for use with a standard ratchet?

Yes, they are compatible with any 1/2" square drive ratchet or breaker bar, as well as impact wrenches.

What are the included socket sizes?

The set includes eleven metric sizes: 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 21, 22, 24, and 27mm.

Will this set fit in any tool chest drawer?

The EVA insert tray measures 28.60cm x 18.00cm x 5.40cm and is designed to fit 1/4 drawer spaces, commonly found in Draper and similar tool chests.

Are these sockets rated for heavy-duty impact use?

Yes, they are specifically designed as impact sockets, meaning they are hardened and tempered for use with impact tools.

How do I clean and maintain the sockets?

Wipe clean with a dry cloth after use. For stubborn dirt, use a damp cloth and dry immediately. Avoid harsh chemicals.

What is the finish on these sockets?

The sockets have a black phosphate chrome finish, which provides resistance to corrosion.

Troubleshooting

Socket does not fit onto the drive tool.

Ensure you are using a 1/2" drive tool. Verify that the drive tool's square head is not damaged or obstructed.

Socket appears to be rounding a fastener head.

Ensure you are using the correct size socket. Apply steady, even pressure. For extremely tight fasteners, consider using a breaker bar for increased leverage or a penetrating oil.

Socket is difficult to remove from the drive tool.

Some drive tools have a ball-detent or pin mechanism. Ensure the socket's drive hole is clear. If using a tool with a detent, a slight twist might help disengage it.

Corrosion appearing on the socket.

Clean the socket thoroughly with a dry cloth and ensure it is completely dry before storing. Apply a light coat of oil if storing for an extended period in a humid environment.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This socket set requires a compatible 1/2" square drive tool, such as a ratchet, breaker bar, or impact wrench. Select the appropriate socket size for the fastener you are working with and securely attach it to your drive tool.

Compatibility: The set is designed for use with 1/2" drive tools. The sockets are compatible with Draper and Draper Expert tool chests, as well as similar tool chests from other manufacturers, provided the drawer dimensions accommodate the 28.60cm x 18.00cm x 5.40cm EVA insert tray.

Care: To maintain the longevity of the sockets, clean them after each use with a dry cloth to remove dirt and debris. For tougher grime, a lightly damp cloth can be used, followed by immediate drying. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the black phosphate chrome finish. Store the sockets in their provided EVA insert tray to prevent loss and protect them from corrosion and impact.
