Grey Pneumatic 1019MG 3/8" Drive 19 mm Standard Magnetic Impact Socket

 

Grey Pneumatic’s 1019MG offers reliable magnetic retention, solid strength, and standard size for everyday impact-rated work. It is well suited for automotive repairs, maintenance tasks, or in any setting where fastener handling and access in mid depths are needed.

 

Q: What benefit does the magnetic feature bring to this socket?
A: The built-in magnet holds fasteners in place, reducing dropping or misalignment, especially useful in overhead work or difficult access situations.

 

Q: Is this socket safe for use with impact wrenches?
A: Yes. This is an impact-rated socket made of heat-treated alloy steel. It is designed for use with impact tools.

 

Q: In what situations would I prefer this “standard” length socket over a “deep” socket?
A: Standard length sockets are shorter and thus better for tight or shallow spaces. They offer better stability and are less likely to twist under torque than long or deep sockets when full depth is not required. The 1019MG's ~30 mm length is appropriate for many mid-depth fastener tasks.
