Snap-on's new 1/2-inch drive 12-piece semi-deep six-point metric impact socket set (312IMMS) features:

• Flank drive wrenching system that grips the fastener on the flanks/flats which delivers 15 to 20 percent more turning power

• Impact sockets are heat-treated to a low hardness range compared to chrome sockets so that under heavy, continuous use, the impact socket will withstand the impact blows and wear rather than break

• Square drive side hole works with ball or pin type retention

• The broach depth of Snap-on impact sockets will start to thread the nut onto the stud. Competitive sockets have a deeper hex where the user needs to start the nut by hand.
