Sockets and Impact Sockets
Sockets & Socket Sets are a staple in any garage tool box. We cover all common socket sizes and individual purchase means you only need to buy what you use.
High quality impact sockets are make of chrome molybdenum, which is a ductile metal that is unlikely to shatter like chrome vanadium sockets and therefore creates less chance of injury from sockets shattering. Impact sockets are a different colour to other regular sockets due to the application of a black oxide coating, which is used as a protection against corrosion, as the vibration caused by a powered impact driver would cause chrome plating to flake or chip off.
The colour also makes it easy to help distinguish regular sockets from impact sockets, which can be used with powered impact wrenches . With a hardened surface, impact sockets can absorb sudden torque changes (impact), whereas a regular socket, with high enough impact, may warp out of shape or shatter as the steel used is softer.
Impact sockets are designed to cope with greater levels of torque and vibration and the combination of an impact wrench and impact socket will deliver much greater torque to a fastener than can be achieved with a manual wrench.

Great after sales service...
I had an issue with the tyre changer, rang for help, got a video call back within minutes and then received a live walk through the problem talking me through the actions required to rectify.
I also enquired about operating instructions for the balancer as I was struggling to understand some of the written ones. I then got a live training session on the video call followed up with a link to a training video in a message.
Excellent after sales service from Neal.
Great customer service and responsive...
Great customer service and responsiveness. I was dealing with a gentleman named Neal, who was very responsive to my phone calls, answered all my questions, and provided me with solutions. I would definitely recommend him to anyone and will use his excellent service in the future. Keep up the good work, guys.
Quality of service...
Anthony has now dealt with my orders on 2 occasions, very helpful and polite and noticed our previous order ... can’t recommend more he knows his equipment from the conversation had, haven’t needed to use the “help or after service” but certainly wouldn’t think twice of doing with how Anthony has dealt with anything we asked from enquiry to buying. Top class service delivery over Xmas 2019 was as agreed and the delivery driver was top class in rush hour so made him a brew minus the bacon butty as we had none left!! Give the guys a pay rise but price increase.
Thanks again look forward to purchasing from you soon. 100% service from start to end.
