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

Power through stubborn metric fasteners with the Milwaukee SHOCKWAVE 20 mm x 1/2 in. drive Deep Impact Socket. Built for high-torque impact work, this socket combines six-point engagement with a deep profile to maximize grip and minimize rounding on tough bolts.

Key details at a glance:

  • Socket size: 20 mm (metric) for common automotive and machinery fasteners
  • Drive size: 1/2 in for compatibility with most impact wrenches and power tools
  • Configuration: 6-point design for better torque transfer and grip on hex fasteners
  • Depth: Deep socket style to reach recessed bolts and long studs
  • Material: Chrome Vanadium steel for durability under heavy-duty use
  • Impact-rated: Built to withstand repeated hammering and shocks from impact drivers
  • Length: 3.07 inches overall, offering reach without compromising control
  • Packaging: Carded to ensure secure retail display and single-socket packaging

Where it shines

The 20 mm metric size makes it an essential part of any toolkit focused on metric fasteners—from brake caliper bolts to suspension components and engine bay hardware. The 1/2 in drive maximizes torque transfer, reducing cam-out and speeding up jobs that require sustained turning force. The deep, six-point geometry minimizes rounded corners on stubborn fasteners and maintains grip even when bolts are slightly corroded or tight.

Who should add this socket to their kit?

Automotive technicians, diesel and fleet mechanics, and DIY enthusiasts tackling tasks on cars, trucks, and equipment that use metric fasteners. If you frequently service vehicles from European and Asian manufacturers or work with heavy equipment where deep reach matters, this Milwaukee SHOCKWAVE socket is a robust, reliable choice.

Practical tips

  • Pair with a compatible 1/2 in drive impact wrench or breaker bar for best performance.
  • Use in combination with a socket rail or tray to keep your 20 mm set organized for quick access in busy jobs.
  • Inspect the socket for wear after heavy use; six-point engagement should remain true to maintain grip.

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.
