Ingersoll Rand Impact Sockets

[SIXSPEED]

My wife gave me a cordless impact wrench for my birthday ... so I had to purchase some impact rated sockets to go along with it. Found some Ingersoll Rand sockets from Amazon; they look amazing.

Nice sockets! Do you use inch on your car and no metric?

Time to check the web for some discount codes

Oh this is a neat addition, never seen

I was looking for the free shipping deals on Amazon and at the time the SAE deep set was the only one. Since then I have ordered the 14 pc deep metric set and 13 pc standard SAE set, also with free shipping. Besides, the lug nuts on my Mustang are SAE 13/16".

Impact for the win. I am loving my electric impact gun lately.
Doesnt have the power of my air gun, but so convenient.

US made?

I LOVE my IR cordless impact and have the flashlight that uses the same battery - very handy!

Nope ... packaging says "Made in Taiwan ROC"

I'm curious how they'll hold up to tough use. I have an impact set where one of the sockets quickly cracked. Another set is in continuous use (and abuse) for the past 36 years.

I can't vouch for how long they'll last but I do know that Chrome-Moly steel alloys are pretty tough and that's what the IR sockets are made of.

IMO, you can't go wrong with anything IR makes. Never seen an IR product that wasn't excellant quality. I feel the same about 3M.
