Milwaukee Shockwave 14 mm X 3/8 in. drive Metric 6 Point Deep Impact Socket

Meet the Milwaukee Shockwave 14 mm Deep Impact Socket, a purpose-built tool for high-torque, recessed fasteners. Designed for 3/8 in drive impact wrenches, this metric socket combines rugged construction with optimized geometry to deliver reliable grip where it matters most on automotive, industrial, and DIY projects.

• : 14 mm metric size with a 3/8 in drive, giving you the right fit for common metric fasteners and a versatile connection to your impact tools.
• Deep reach: The extended depth enables access to bolts and studs tucked in tight or recessed locations, reducing the need for extra extensions.
• Six-point engagement: Six contact points maximize torque transfer and minimize rounding of fastener corners under heavy impact.
• Impact-rated construction: Forged steel build is engineered to withstand repeated shocks from impact wrenches, delivering durable, long-lasting performance.
• Shockwave design: Milwaukee’s Shockwave engineering optimizes socket geometry for high-torque applications, improving grip and reducing cam-out during tough jobs.
• Compact practicality: A compact length of 2.55 inches provides a balance of reach and maneuverability for cramped workspaces while maintaining strength for demanding tasks.

Why it matters in real-world use:

• Automotive maintenance and repairs where metric fasteners are exposed or recessed—think brake caliper bolts, engine mounts, and other under-hood components—benefit from the deep reach and secure engagement of this socket.
• Fleet maintenance and workshop settings where impact tools are standard gear—this socket is built to stand up to repeated use without rounding or wear.
• DIY projects that require consistent torque and a reliable grip—the 6-point design reduces the risk of slippage, helping you complete tasks with confidence.

How to get the best results

• Use with a compatible 3/8 in drive impact wrench or driver for optimal performance. Avoid using excessively high manual force; let the tool’s torque do the work.
• Pair this deep socket with a well-maintained impact kit. Keep the contact surfaces clean and free of debris to preserve grip and extend life.
• Store the socket in a sturdy organizer or on a rack to prevent bending or misalignment. Like all impact sockets, proper storage helps maintain precise engagement with fasteners.

The Milwaukee Shockwave 14 mm Deep Impact Socket is the ideal choice for professionals and serious hobbyists who demand durable, reliable performance from their metric impact sockets. Built to withstand the demands of high-torque work while delivering precise, six-point engagement, it helps you tackle recessed or hard-to-reach fasteners with confidence and efficiency.
