Makita Hand Tools

Makita Impact Sockets and Hand Tools

Makita hand tools in this collection are mostly impact sockets for impact wrenches and drivers. Impact XPS socket sets come in 1/4" and 3/8" drive, metric and SAE, each with a standard socket adapter. The A-96372 is a 14-piece 1/2" drive deep well SAE set, with singles also sold. Hollow sockets in 9/16" and 3/4" run from 3" to 24" long for threaded rod and long bolts. Impact XPS 2" square socket adapters convert hex drivers to socket use.

What to Look For

  • Drive size. Match 1/4", 3/8", or 1/2" drive to your tool's anvil.
  • Deep or standard. Deep well sockets reach nuts on long studs.
  • Hollow sockets. Hollow designs let threaded rod pass through the socket.
  • Adapters. Socket adapters let an impact driver run sockets.

The Tool Nut, an authorized Makita dealer since 1994, offers free shipping on most orders and rewards points redeemable on every brand we carry.

Makita Hand Tools FAQ

What are hollow sockets used for?

Hollow sockets let threaded rod or long bolts pass through the socket while you drive the nut. They are common in electrical, mechanical, and HVAC work. Makita offers 9/16" and 3/4" hollow sockets in several lengths.

Can I use these sockets on an impact driver?

Yes, with a 1/4" hex to square socket adapter. The Impact XPS socket sets include a standard socket adapter, and 1/4", 3/8", and 1/2" square adapters are sold separately.
