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

Designed to fit certain European vehicle specifications, this 22mm 1/2" drive impact socket provides the specialist sizing required for specific manufacturers whilst incorporating protective features essential for modern alloy wheel servicing. The combination of robust construction and damage-prevention technology makes it ideal for professional workshops handling premium vehicles. Manufactured from hardened and tempered Chrome Molybdenum steel, this socket is engineered to handle the substantial torque loads generated by impact tools without flexing or failing. The innovative double-sleeving system – covering both external and internal surfaces – creates a protective barrier between the steel socket and delicate alloy wheel finishes, preventing the unsightly scratches and marks that can result from direct metal contact. The 6-point design ensures maximum engagement with fastener faces, distributing impact forces evenly to reduce stress concentration points. An anodised finish provides long-term corrosion resistance, whilst the colour-coding system enables rapid identification, particularly valuable when working with multiple wheel sizes in quick succession.
