Full details
The Laser 4682 Deep Impact Socket is designed for professional mechanics and heavy-duty equipment operators who require high-torque performance in constrained spaces. This 24mm, 1-inch drive tool excels at accessing deeply recessed fasteners where standard sockets cannot reach, though its substantial 108mm depth may be too long for extremely tight engine bays or low-clearance environments.

FAQs
Is this socket compatible with hand ratchets?
Yes, it will fit any standard 1-inch drive hand ratchet, though it is specifically optimized for impact tool use.
Can this be used on standard chrome fasteners?
Yes, the black phosphate coating is designed to minimize surface marking on standard fasteners.
What is the material composition?
The socket is manufactured from high-durability chrome molybdenum steel.
How long is the socket?
This model has a depth of 108mm.
Is it safe to use with a hammer?
No, this tool is designed for impact wrench or manual torque application only. Hammering the socket can damage the internal structure.
Troubleshooting
Socket slips on fastener head
Ensure the socket is pushed fully onto the fastener. Inspect the fastener for heavy corrosion or rounded edges that may require a specialty removal tool.
Socket becomes stuck in a confined space
Use a retrieval magnet or pull gently with pliers. Always ensure the tool is fully seated before applying power to prevent wedging.
Surface rust appearing on the socket
Clean the surface with a wire brush or fine steel wool, then apply a thin layer of machine oil or protective lubricant to restore the coating.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your socket, always verify that your impact wrench drive is a 1-inch size. Do not attempt to use adapters to convert smaller drive tools, as this can lead to catastrophic socket failure. Always inspect the socket for stress cracks before high-torque use. To maintain the black phosphate finish, wipe the socket with a clean rag after use to remove grease and debris, and keep it in a dry environment to prevent moisture buildup. If the socket comes into contact with highly corrosive chemicals, a light spray of protective oil can help maintain the coating integrity.
