Choosing a socket set

Start with the drive size, because the socket drive and the handle drive must match, or you will need an adaptor. Then choose the system, metric, imperial, Whitworth or a combined set, and whether you want standard, deep or both. Use sets listed as impact sets with impact tools, and use hand sets with ratchets and breaker bars. Inhex, Torx and specialty sets suit particular fasteners. Many sets come on a rail or in a case, which keeps the sizes in order. Check the pieces and sizes listed before you order, and call us if you want a set matched to the fasteners you work on. Our guides cover the main decisions: socket sets, impact drivers and impact wrenches and torque wrenches. Always check the product page for what is included before you order.

Socket Sets FAQs

What socket sets does AIMS Industrial list?

Hand and impact socket sets, Inhex and Torx sets, specialty sets, flex head sets, extension bar sets and adaptor sets, in metric, imperial and Whitworth sizes, from brands including Ko-Ken, Stahlwille and Trax.

What drive size socket set do I need?

Match the drive size to the ratchet or impact wrench you will use, and to the fasteners. The socket and its handle must share the same drive size, or you will need an adaptor.

What is the difference between metric and imperial sets?

They are sized in different systems, so sizes that look close are not the same. Check the system in the title, or choose a combined set if you work on both.

Can I use a hand socket set with an impact wrench?

Use sets listed as impact sets with impact tools. Check the product page for which type each set is.

Can you help me choose a set?

Yes. Call us on (02) 9773 0122 with the fastener sizes and the tool you are using and we will help match a set.
