ImpactX is a top - notch line of impact - rated insert bits and fastening accessories tailored for professional contractors.

This Makita A - 97047 comes with an ImpactX 1/4 x 12 Socket Adapter. It adapts sockets for high - torque impact drivers and drills. The retention ball keeps it firmly attached to the socket, and the chamfered edges at the square drive end make it easy to fit. The S2 steel construction and calibrated heat - treating extend its lifespan, and the Manganese Phosphate surface resists corrosion effectively. It can be used for both standard and impact applications, and it comes as a single piece.
