Product Information
Milwaukee Shockwave Impact Socket 3/8" Drive 16mm Standard 4932480273
Fitted to an impact wrench day in, day out, a socket either survives the shock loading or it doesn't. Milwaukee builds the SHOCKWAVE range around that fact: this 16mm standard-depth socket is forged from Chrome-Molybdenum SHOCKWAVE Impact Duty steel on a 3/8" square drive, with a 6-point design that grips more of the fastener face than a loose-fitting socket.
16mm sits at the larger end of the 3/8" drive range, where the added leverage from a bigger fastener makes impact-rated construction even more worthwhile. Sizing is stamped and ink-filled with a laser-etched part number alongside it, so it stays legible long after paint-only markings would have worn away.
Product Details
- Machined from SHOCKWAVE Impact Duty steel — a Chrome-Molybdenum alloy built for the shock loads of an impact wrench
- 6-point design grips more of the fastener head, cutting down on rounded-off nuts and bolts
- Non-slip hex geometry keeps the socket seated square on the fastener under repeated impact
- Size is stamped and ink-filled, with the part number laser-etched alongside it for long-term legibility
- Dual-hole/groove design accepts a security ring or friction ball to stop the socket working loose on an impact gun
- Standard depth profile, sized for everyday nut and bolt work
- 3/8" square drive fits impact wrenches, standard ratchets and breaker bars alike

Frequently Asked Questions
What actually makes this different from a cheaper socket?
It's made from Chrome-Molybdenum SHOCKWAVE Impact Duty steel rather than standard chrome vanadium, with geometry designed to absorb the hammering action of an impact wrench instead of cracking or rounding out under it.
Can I use this on a hand ratchet, or is it only for impact wrenches?
It's rated for impact wrenches, but the 3/8" square drive fits a standard hand ratchet or breaker bar just as well.
Does it come with a retaining ring or friction ball?
The socket has a dual-hole and groove design built in for use with a security ring or friction ball accessory on your impact wrench, to stop it working loose in use.
What warranty does Milwaukee provide on this socket?
Milwaukee hand tools, including SHOCKWAVE sockets, are covered by Milwaukee's lifetime guarantee against manufacturing defects under normal use.
