Wright Tool 2-1/2" Drive 6 Point Standard Metric Impact Socket - 180mm

This 2-1/2" drive 6 point standard metric impact socket from Wright Tool is built for the heavy stuff. At 180mm, it's sized for the big fastener work you see on heavy equipment, mining machinery, and industrial fabrication where standard drive sizes just can't handle the torque. The 6 point opening grips the flats of the fastener instead of the corners, so you get more contact and less rounding on bolts that have already seen some wear. The socket is forged and machined for a tight fit on the fastener, then precision heat-treated to get the right balance of hardness and toughness. That matters when you're breaking loose rusted or over-torqued bolts with an impact gun and don't want the socket walking or cracking under load. Wright's patented Wright Drive design spreads the load over a larger surface area on the fastener, which means better grip and less slippage compared to a standard broach. It comes with an oiled black oxide finish to fight corrosion in shop and field conditions, and the size is stamped clearly so you're not guessing on the rack. This one is made in the USA, forged in Barberton, Ohio, and it meets ASME B107 hand tool standards. Guys running big impact wrenches on heavy trucks, rail equipment, or industrial plant maintenance are the ones reaching for a socket this size. It's not a daily driver for most shops, but when you need it, nothing else will fit.
