Impact tools save time and handle high torques with less effort and
more safety. Wright Tool makes impact sockets and attachments
for almost every size and drive for which we make a hand socket
because no hand socket is recommended for impact gun use. Wright
impact tools are stronger and tougher to withstand the repeated high
loads produced by impact guns, which are often higher than can be
produced by hand. Wright impact sockets are always black, not only
to distinguish them from hand sockets, which are usually plated, but
also to avoid the chipping which could occur when a plated socket is
subjected to thousands of cycles of very high loads. (Wright and other
manufacturers make some black finish hand tools for specialized
applications. These are not for impact use.)
Wright 6 pt. sockets use the patented Wright Drive ® design for greater
strength and longer life. Wright Tool also manufactures 12 pt. impact
sockets with our Wright Drive ® design.

In addition, Wright makes large impact sockets which are beyond the
range of hand application. These go up to 10" opening and 3-1/2"
drive. The 2-1/2" and 3-1/2" drive sockets are normally driven with
hydraulic power. Because of the high loads involved, the impact
designs are much safer for these drivers. While 1-1/2" impact guns are
available, the hydraulic driver is often more convenient to use and has
the advantage of controlling the amount of torque applied.
