Milwaukee New SHOCKWAVE Impact Duty Bit Sockets
Milwaukee says their SHOCKWAVE impact duty bit sockets are the most durable bit sockets. This is thanks to their long lasting WEAR GUARD tips that help give them a precise fit that prevents stripping to protect the fit through the life of the socket. They use high strength forged steel that’s optimized for performance in heavy duty applications and use a dual hole design and ring groove for easy socket attaching and removal. The markings are bold and longest lasting thanks to them being stamped and ink filled for easy visibility.
With 137 total SKUs available in 3/8” and 1/2″ drive sizes, the SHOCKWAVE™ Impact Duty Bit Sockets are offered in E-Torx, Torx, and Hex tip types to tackle a wide range of fastening applications. The Hex Bit Sockets are also available in both SAE and METRIC configurations. The Bit Sockets come in 2” and 4” options providing increased access and versatility across applications.
Milwaukee SHOCKWAVE™ Impact Duty Bit Sockets are backed by a Lifetime Guarantee and meet ASME and CamCar industry standards.

Milwaukee New SHOCKWAVE Impact Duty Swivel Sockets
These swivel sockets feature a SECURESWIVEL pinless joint to provide the strongest connection that prevents disassembly and poor swivel rotation. 30 degrees of swivel allows better access to work in tight and hard to reach spaces. They use high strength forged steel that’s optimized for performance in heavy duty applications and use a dual hole design and ring groove for easy socket attaching and removal. The non slip hex geometry helps prevent fastener rounding. The markings are bold and longest lasting thanks to them being stamped and ink filled for easy visibility.
With 126 SKUs in this lineup, the SHOCKWAVE™ Impact Duty Swivel Sockets are available in 1/4″, 3/8”, and 1/2” drive sizes, are offered in SAE and metric configurations, as well as deep and standard configurations, to cover a wide range of fastening applications.
