Key Features
Half-Inch Drive Fit Built for 1/2 inch drive tools, this socket matches common impact wrench and ratchet setups used for heavier fastening work. Deep Socket Reach The deep profile helps you get onto recessed nuts and longer studs without fighting for clearance. Secure 6-Point Grip This DeWalt impact socket uses a 6-point design and chrome vanadium steel construction for solid contact and long-term durability.
Overview
The DeWalt DWMT73947OSP Mechanics 6 Point 1/2″ Drive Deep Impact Socket 14 MM is a single 14 mm deep impact socket made for mechanics and anyone working with recessed fasteners on a 1/2 inch drive setup. This is a deep impact socket designed for fastening and loosening metric nuts and bolts with compatible ratchets and impact tools. Model Number: DWMT73947OSP.
The key details here are straightforward and useful. You get a 14 mm metric socket with a 6-point opening, which gives the fastener more flat-to-flat contact than a 12-point style. That matters when you’re dealing with stubborn hardware and want a better chance of keeping the corners intact. The deep socket design also makes this a better choice when the nut sits down over a longer stud or in a recessed location where a standard socket comes up short.
DeWalt builds this socket from premium chrome vanadium steel, which is a proven material for strength and durability in hand tool and mechanic tool applications. For a shop drawer, service cart, or job box, that means a socket that is made to hold up under repeated use instead of feeling disposable. The knurled beauty rings are another practical touch. If your hands are oily, gloved, or just moving fast, that extra texture helps reduce slippage when you’re grabbing the socket by hand.
Because this is a single-piece socket and not part of a large kit in this listing, it makes sense for replacing a missing size, filling a gap in an existing metric impact socket set, or buying only the exact size you actually use. That is usually the smarter move if 14 mm is one of your common service sizes and you do not need a full tray of duplicates.
This socket is best suited for automotive work, equipment service, garage use, and general mechanical fastening where a 1/2 inch drive and metric deep socket are the right fit. If you already run a 1/2 inch drive system and need a dedicated 14 mm deep impact socket with a 6-point profile, this is the no-nonsense replacement or add-on piece that earns its spot.
Reach Recessed Metric Fasteners
If you work on longer studs or hardware that sits below the surface, a deep socket saves time and frustration. This 14 mm impact socket is built to get where a shallow socket cannot.
- 14 mm metric size for matching metric nuts and bolts
