There are many types of sockets on the market, but all can be split into two categories: impact sockets and regular sockets.
The main difference is wall thickness but it is very easy to differentiate between the two by just looking at them: impact sockets are matt while most of the standard sockets are glossy. You can learn more in the table below:
| Impact Sockets | Regular Sockets (also called non-impact / normal / standard) |
|
| Finish | Matt and black (due to a black oxide coating, also known as ‘industrial surface finish’) |
Chromed and glossy |
| Composition | Molybdenum chromium steel | Chrome vanadium steel |
| Main characteristics | Thick walls | Thin walls |
| Tool Fitting | Designed with a cross hole in the handle end, compatible with a retaining pin and ring, or locking pin anvil | No cross hole in the handle end |
| Tools recommended usage | Powered tools (impact wrenches, nutrunners…) | Hand tools only |
Using the right socket for your impact wrench is crucial to ensure safety and efficiency
