- The 3/8-drive 12-millimeter 12-point impact socket GP1112M can also be referred to as Grey Pneumatic 1112M impact socket, GP 12mm 3/8 impact socket 12-point, Grey Pneumatic standard length 12-point metric socket, GP impact socket 12mm 12pt, and GP1112M chrome-moly impact socket.
Grey Pneumatic GP1112M is engineered for professionals who need reliable performance in demanding environments. The use of high-quality chrome-molybdenum steel and tight manufacturing tolerances makes it a durable choice for automotive, industrial, and heavy-equipment work where impactful torque and accurate fit-up are essential.
Q: Is this socket safe for impact tools?
A: Yes. The GP1112M is specifically made for impact use; its chrome-molybdenum alloy steel is heat treated for high torque resistance. It is *not* intended for use in standard hand-ratchet applications where precision torque control is required.
Q: What applications is the GP1112M best suited for?
A: It is ideal for automotive and industrial maintenance tasks involving metric fasteners, such as engine work, machinery assembly or disassembly, or any setting where strong and durable sockets are required under impact conditions. Its 12-point design allows access in tight locations.
Q: How do the depth and dimensions affect accessibility?
A: With an overall length of about 30 millimeters, and socket depth around 9 millimeters and bolt clearance depth about 18 millimeters, the GP1112M strikes a balance between reach and compactness—long enough to accommodate typical fasteners but short enough to fit in tighter spaces.
