Product Description
Milwaukee SHOCKWAVE Insert Bit Hex 1/16 in. — 25 Pack
Model Number: 48-32-4700
The Milwaukee 48-32-4700 is a 25-pack of SHOCKWAVE Impact Duty Hex 1/16 in. insert bits — bulk-quantity hex driver bits for the 1/16 in. hex socket fastener specification used in the smallest precision hex fastening applications including miniature instrument mounting, fine-mechanism assembly, specialty equipment hardware, and micro-fastener installations where this tiny hex size is the correct driver specification. The 1/16 in. hex is among the smallest standard hex fastener sizes, found in optical instruments, precision measurement equipment, small-scale electronics mounting hardware, and specialty mechanical assemblies where fine control and minimal fastener profile are required by the design. Milwaukee manufactures SHOCKWAVE Impact Duty bits from proprietary steel with multi-zone heat treatment — at the extremely small 1/16 in. hex cross-section, tip material hardness and the Shockzone energy absorption geometry are critical for maintaining the tiny hex profile against the contact stress of driving cycles that would quickly round standard bits at this size.
The Shockzone geometry in the SHOCKWAVE bit shank absorbs peak rotational impact energy before it reaches the 1/16 in. hex driving tip — the vanishingly small cross-section of the 1/16 in. hex profile concentrates all driving stress in an extremely small material volume, making the Shockzone's protection more important at this size than at any larger hex specification. The 25-pack format provides bulk supply for precision equipment service organizations, calibration laboratories, specialty contractors, and instrumentation technicians who work with 1/16 in. hex fasteners regularly and benefit from bulk economics for this specialty bit size. Manufacturing consistency across all 25 bits ensures predictable engagement and driving behavior throughout the supply.
Available across Milwaukee's complete SHOCKWAVE hex lineup covering the full range from 1/16 in. through larger metric and inch hex sizes — see the complete range for all available specifications.
