This 4-piece set of BRUNEL Tools deep impact sockets is designed for automotive professionals and DIY enthusiasts working with alloy wheels. Its key benefit is preventing damage to delicate wheel surfaces during tire changes and maintenance. A potential caveat is the fixed size set, requiring additional socket sizes for non-standard applications. The set includes 17, 19, 21, and 22mm sockets, all featuring protective sleeves, a 1/2" drive for broad compatibility, and a durable chromium-vanadium steel construction for strength and longevity. These 6-point single hex sockets are also color-coded for easy identification and are suitable for use with both manual and impact wrenches.

These sockets are specifically designed for alloy wheels. The protective sleeves help prevent damage to the finish of alloy wheels. They can be used on steel wheels as well, but the primary benefit is for alloy surfaces.
The protective sleeves are typically made from a durable, non-marring plastic or rubber compound designed to withstand contact with wheel surfaces without causing scratches.
Yes, these sockets are suitable for use with torque wrenches for precise tightening of lug nuts, as well as with impact wrenches for removal and initial tightening.
Each socket in the set is color-coded for easy identification. Refer to the product packaging or manual for the specific color-to-size mapping.
The overall length of each socket in this set is 79mm.
This specific 4-piece set is typically sold without a dedicated case but is designed to be stored compactly in a standard toolbox or socket organizer.
With an overall length of 79mm, these are considered deep sockets and are generally sufficient for most standard wheel studs, including those found on alloy wheels. However, extremely long or aftermarket studs may require specialized extensions.
Ensure you are using a 1/2" drive tool. Verify that no debris is obstructing the drive opening of the socket or the drive tang of the tool.
Discontinue use immediately to prevent wheel damage. Contact BRUNEL Tools customer support or refer to the product documentation for information on obtaining replacement sleeves.
Confirm you are using the correct metric size (17, 19, 21, or 22mm). Ensure the socket is fully seated on the lug nut and that the lug nut itself is not damaged or worn.
Ensure the socket is properly seated and the impact wrench has sufficient power. Check the lug nut for cross-threading or damage. Use a penetrating oil if necessary.
Setup: These sockets require no setup. Simply attach the desired socket size to your 1/2" drive ratchet, breaker bar, or impact wrench.
Compatibility: The sockets feature a standard 1/2" square drive, making them compatible with any tool that uses this drive size. They are designed for use with both manual impact wrenches and powered impact wrenches.
Care: To ensure longevity and maintain the protective sleeves:
