Merely one size down from the 1-inch socket set, the 3/4 socket set provides that slightly smaller set of hands you need for heavy-duty work. Consisting of medium to large sockets (to accommodate a variety of nuts, bolts and other fasteners), a 3/4 impact socket set has applications such as construction, industrial maintenance and large-scale machinery. It’s a trusty companion to have when undertaking tasks that demand substantial torque.
Socket sets, in general, are what you want in your corner for securing or removing nuts, bolts and other fasteners. Sockets — cylindrical attachments with openings on one end to fit hexagons or squares — will fit onto their corresponding fastener depending on what shape they have on their opening. Regardless of whether you’re using 3/4- or 3/8-inch socket sets, there’s usually one consistency: each set should come with a ratchet handle — also known as a ratchet wrench. This is the tool you need to turn sockets seamlessly in either direction.
If you want to dial down the intensity, 1/2-inch socket sets are better for midrange applications such as construction, automotive repair, machinery maintenance and DIY projects. If your job requires less torque but more precision, 1/4-inch socket sets will provide that level of accuracy you crave. The runt of the litter, 1/4-inchers are fantastic for fine handiwork on small machinery, appliances, electronics and bicycles.
