In-Store Exclusive

This one's worth the trip to the store.

Brands like Weber, Milwaukee, Yeti, and DeWalt restrict where their products can be sold online — and for good reason. In-store buyers get authentic products, full manufacturer warranty, and access to pricing that simply isn't allowed to be advertised on the web.

  • Authorized dealer network · Full manufacturer warranty & support
  • Guaranteed authentic · No counterfeits, no gray-market resellers
  • The brands set these standards · Be wary of sellers who don't follow them

Every order helps keep your local hardware store on the corner.

Why we built NHG
You might find it for less locally. Independent retailers often offer competitive pricing — some products are even cheaper in-store than online.
Real expert advice — not search results. Independent hardware staff know their inventory and the local conditions you're working in.
Keep the neighborhood working. Every dollar spent at an independent retailer returns roughly 3x more to your local economy than at a national chain.

About Product Overview

Milwaukee Shockwave 17 mm x 3/8 in. drive Metric 6 Point Deep Impact Socket is engineered to deliver reliable, high-torque performance when you need to break loose stubborn fasteners with your impact wrench or impact driver. Crafted from forged steel, this 17 mm deep socket is purpose-built for metric fasteners and designed to withstand the rigors of heavy-duty use.

Key features and benefits that matter in real-world use:

  • 6-point grip for secure engagement — reduces rounding and distributes torque across multiple contact points for stubborn bolts.
  • Deep 2.5" length — extended reach to access recessed bolts and longer studs in tight spaces.
  • 3/8" drive — compatibility with a wide range of impact wrenches and drivers, balancing torque and accessibility.
  • Impact-rated design — built to endure high-torque impacts without cracking or deforming.
  • Metric precision — specifically sized for 17 mm metric fasteners, ensuring a precise fit.
  • Single-socket packaging — sold as a single piece, carded for easy inventory and immediate use.

Why this matters:

In automotive maintenance and heavy equipment repair, a high-quality socket can be the difference between a quick, clean removal and a frustrating fight with a stubborn bolt. The Shockwave line from Milwaukee pairs advanced engineering with practical design cues: a robust forged-steel body, six-point engagement, and the edge that comes from being built for impact use. This socket is ideal for mechanics, shop techs, and serious DIYers who routinely work with metric hardware and torque-sensitive assemblies.

Use cases:

  • Automotive maintenance: brake caliper bolts, suspension hardware, and engine bay fasteners that require a precise 17 mm fit.
  • Equipment repair: farm, construction, or industrial equipment that uses metric fasteners in tight spaces.
  • High-torque jobs: when you need to apply heavy torque without the socket slipping or rounding the corners.

Tips for best results:

  • Pair with a compatible 3/8" impact wrench or driver for maximum efficiency.
  • Ensure the socket fully seats on the fastener before applying torque to avoid cam-out.
  • Keep the socket clean and free of oil or debris to maintain grip and extend life.

Their Counter
Try local first · we'll wait

The stores we send you to are local and independently run — often for generations, the kind of place where someone behind the counter knows the regulars. We don't own them. We just think they deserve the foot traffic. They can put most of what we sell on their next truck. Ask there before you check out here.

About our directory. National Hardware Group is an independent retailer and directory. The local stores we list and link to are separately owned and operated — we have no ownership stake in any of them, and most pay us nothing to be included. That includes plenty of stores flying a co-op banner that people don't realize are locally owned and run, not operated by a corporation. Store owners can choose to upgrade their listing for an enhanced presence or pickup features, but the base directory is free, and inclusion is never a paid endorsement.
