Q: What is the purpose of the friction-ball on the Sunex 3303?
A: The friction-ball detent holds the socket firmly on the adapter during use, reducing wobble and preventing accidental disconnection under impact forces.
Q: Can this adapter be used with impact tools?
A: Yes. It’s constructed from heat-treated chrome-molybdenum alloy steel, meeting ANSI/ASME standards for impact use, and designed to withstand high torque applications.
Q: How does this super adapter differ from a basic socket reducer?
A: The super adapter is built from higher-grade materials and includes an integrated friction-ball retention feature, offering enhanced durability and socket security compared to simple reducers.
