Dual-Size Impact Socket - STEELMAN JS-301150 1/2" Drive Deep Flip Socket (3/4" x 13/16")

Professional Grade Lug Nut Impact Socket for Fast Size Switching

The STEELMAN JS-301150 is a dual-ended impact socket designed for automotive professionals who work with mixed lug nut sizes daily. This 1/2" drive deep flip socket features 3/4" and 13/16" SAE openings on opposite ends, cutting lug nut service time by up to 50% on mixed-size wheel jobs by eliminating the need to switch between multiple sockets.

Key Performance Features

Instant Size Switching - Flip between 3/4" and 13/16" openings without removing the socket from your impact gun, cutting lug nut service time in half during mixed-size wheel jobs.
Superior Grip Technology - 6-point design grips lug nuts at the flat sides rather than corners, preventing slippage and protecting expensive aftermarket wheels from damage.
Heavy-Duty Construction - Forged from hardened chromoly steel with black oxide coating that resists corrosion and maintains laser-etched size markings through repeated use.

Professional Applications

Perfect for tire shops, fleet maintenance, and mobile mechanics handling American-made vehicles where mixed lug sizes are common:

  • Tire rotations on domestic cars and trucks with factory wheel size variations.
  • Brake service requiring quick transitions between OEM and aftermarket lug nuts.
  • Fleet maintenance where different wheel packages use varying fastener sizes.
  • Mobile tire service requiring minimal tool changes in field conditions.
  • Shop environments servicing mixed vehicle types with space-saving tool requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How does this flip socket compare to standard impact sockets? A: This dual-ended design eliminates socket changes between 3/4" and 13/16" sizes, cutting service time significantly on mixed-size jobs. Standard sockets require removal and replacement for each size change, while this flips instantly without disconnecting from the impact gun. The deep profile also provides better clearance for recessed lug nuts and aftermarket wheels compared to shallow standard sockets.

The deep profile provides better clearance for recessed lug nuts.

Q: Will this socket work with all 1/2 inch impact guns? A: Yes, the standard 1/2" drive fits all impact guns and ratchets with matching drive size. The deep profile accommodates extended anvils and impact extensions without binding, making it compatible with pneumatic, cordless, and corded impact tools. The chromoly steel construction handles high-torque applications from professional-grade impact guns without cracking or wearing prematurely.

Q: What vehicles commonly use these lug nut sizes? A: The 3/4" opening fits many older American cars, trucks, and trailers, while 13/16" is standard on newer domestic models and popular aftermarket wheels. This socket covers Ford F-150s, Chevy Silverados, GM trucks, Dodge Ram vehicles, and most American-made passenger cars. It's particularly useful for shops servicing mixed fleets where both sizes appear on the same vehicle or across different models.

Q: Is the 6-point design better than 12-point for lug nuts? A: Yes, 6-point sockets grip lug nuts at the flat faces rather than corners, significantly reducing slippage and preventing rounding of fasteners. This is especially important with softer materials, corroded fasteners, or high-torque applications where 12-point sockets might slip. The 6-point design also distributes force more evenly, protecting expensive aftermarket lug nuts from damage during removal and installation.
