Sealey 1/2" Drive Impact Socket Metric for Alloy Wheels

Perfectly sized for many European vehicles including popular German and French marques, this 19mm 1/2" drive impact socket is an indispensable tool for tyre fitters and general mechanics. The protective sleeving system makes it specifically engineered for alloy wheel work, where preventing cosmetic damage is just as important as removing the wheel efficiently. Constructed from hardened and tempered Chrome Molybdenum steel, this socket delivers the strength required to loosen stubborn wheel nuts with impact tools whilst the anodised finish resists corrosion even in damp workshop environments. The double-sleeving arrangement – both inside and outside – creates a protective barrier that prevents metal-to-metal contact with expensive alloy wheels and their locking nuts. The 6-point configuration provides maximum engagement with fastener flats, distributing impact forces evenly and reducing the likelihood of rounding off corners. Colour-coding enables rapid identification amongst your socket collection, streamlining wheel changes and improving workshop productivity.
