For best longevity, avoid using in non-impact environments where excessive lateral force could strip or deform the socket interior.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Milwaukee","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52272854171922,"sku":"2029062","price":7.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0928\/1024\/8466\/files\/2029062_A.eps_High.jpg?v=1778782983","url":"https:\/\/nationalhardwaregroup.com\/products\/milwaukee-shockwave-16-mm-x-3-8-in-drive-metric-6-point-standard-impact-socket","provider":"National Hardware Group","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
