Low-profile universal impact sockets with a pinless joint that can angle and rotate through a full 360 degrees. Choose the 8-piece SAE set or 10-piece metric set for tight-access fasteners where a straight socket will not line up.

WHY IT WORKS
Why this product
Angles and Rotates
The pinless universal head provides freedom to approach fasteners from changing angles.
Nano-Length Access
The reduced profile helps in spaces where a conventional universal socket assembly is too tall.
Impact-Ready Construction
Forged chrome-moly construction is intended for compatible powered impact use.
Choose One Measurement System
Separate SAE and metric sets keep the fastener fit clear.
CHOOSE WITH CONFIDENCE
Choose SAE or metric
Choose the 8-piece SAE set for inch fasteners from 5/16 through 3/4 inch.
Choose the 10-piece metric set for metric fasteners; verify the included range covers the sizes you service.
Do not substitute the nearest SAE size on metric hardware, or the nearest metric size on SAE hardware.

COMPATIBILITY
Tool, angle, and fastener compatibility
Use with a 3/8-inch square-drive impact tool within the tool and socket ratings.
Keep the socket fully seated; extreme joint angles reduce efficient torque transfer and can increase wear.
Confirm the Nano body still provides enough reach for recessed fasteners or long studs.
QUICK ANSWERS
Common questions
What is the advantage of a pinless universal socket?
The head can angle and rotate without the projecting pin found on some universal-joint designs, helping it work in confined spaces.
How do I choose between the two sets?
Order SAE for inch fasteners or metric for metric fasteners. The SAE set has 8 pieces; the metric set has 10.
Are these impact sockets?
Yes. Astro identifies them as forged chrome-moly impact sockets for compatible 3/8-inch drive tools.
Will they replace every standard socket?
No. Their strength is angled, low-clearance access; a straight socket is still preferable when the fastener is directly accessible.
