Key Features

Better Fastener Grip

DirectTorque technology is built to help reduce fastener rounding. That matters when you are leaning on stubborn hardware and do not want to damage corners.

Deep Impact Reach

This DEWALT impact socket uses a 1/2 inch drive and a deep profile, giving you the reach needed for longer studs and recessed fasteners.

Built for Repeated Use

CR-440 steel construction, black oxide finish, and a knurled ring give this socket the durability and grip you want in regular shop or jobsite use.

Overview

The DEWALT DWMT73941OSP 1/2 Inch Drive 6-Point Impact Socket is a single deep SAE socket built for impact use. This is a deep impact socket designed for high-torque fastening and removal with impact tools. Model Number: DWMT73941OSP. If you need a 15/16 inch socket for repeated service work, this one is made to hold up and stay easy to identify in the drawer or on the cart.

The working end is a 6-point design, which is the right call when torque matters more than versatility. A 6-point impact socket gives more contact on the flats of the fastener, which helps reduce corner damage compared to looser-fitting alternatives. DEWALT also calls out DirectTorque technology, which is intended to improve grip on the fastener and help prevent rounding when you are breaking loose tight or rusted hardware.

This socket uses a 1/2 inch drive and a deep body. That combination makes it a practical fit for impact wrenches used on larger nuts and bolts, especially when the stud extends past the nut. For anyone doing automotive work, equipment service, trailer maintenance, or general mechanical repair, that extra depth is often the difference between getting the socket seated fully or fighting the hardware.

Material matters on an impact socket, and this one is listed as CR-440 steel with a black oxide finish. The black oxide coating is common on impact accessories because it is built for use rather than showroom shine. DEWALT also adds knurled beauty rings to help reduce hand slippage, which is a small feature but a useful one when your hands are oily, gloved, or moving quickly between sockets.

One of the more practical details here is the high-visibility laser-etched size marking. On a tool like this, clear markings save time. You are not guessing, squinting, or wiping the socket clean just to confirm the size. This socket is also listed as O-ring and retaining pin compatible, which makes sense for users who want a more secure connection on impact tools set up for heavy-duty work.

This is a straightforward buy for mechanics, technicians, and anyone who regularly uses a 1/2 inch drive impact wrench on SAE fasteners. If 15/16 inch is a common size in your work, this DEWALT socket gives you the deep reach, 6-point grip, and impact-ready build you want without overcomplicating the job.

Made for High-Torque Fastening

This deep impact socket is built for jobs where torque and reliable fastener contact matter more than anything else. The 6-point opening, deep reach, and impact-rated construction make it a practical choice for repeated mechanical work.
