Product Description
Milwaukee SHOCKWAVE 1/4 in. Hex to 1/4 in. Socket Adapter
Model Number: 48-32-5030
The Milwaukee 48-32-5030 is a SHOCKWAVE Impact Duty 1/4 in. Hex Shank to 1/4 in. Square Drive Socket Adapter — the compact small-format socket adapter for converting a standard 1/4 in. hex shank impact driver or drill to the 1/4 in. square drive socket interface for precision fastener driving with small socket sets. The 1/4 in. square drive is the smallest standard socket drive size, used for precision fastener sizes in instrumentation, electronics, small machinery, control equipment, and precision mechanical assemblies where the larger 3/8 in. and 1/2 in. drive formats are physically too large for the fastener head dimensions and working clearance. Milwaukee manufactures the SHOCKWAVE adapter from proprietary steel with Shockzone torsional compliance geometry for impact driver peak torque loads — at the compact 1/4 in. square drive, the Shockzone's torsional protection ensures the adapter maintains its drive geometry and socket retention function through sustained impact driver use.
The individual adapter format provides the most economical purchase when only the 1/4 in. square drive conversion is needed — for contractors and technicians who work with 1/4 in. drive precision tools and want to utilize their cordless impact driver for this application without purchasing the complete 3-piece adapter set. The adapter accepts all standard 1/4 in. square drive sockets from Milwaukee and compatible manufacturers for broad socket compatibility across the precision tool and equipment fastener sizes that the 1/4 in. drive format covers. The adapter also provides a connecting interface for 1/4 in. drive extensions and other 1/4 in. drive accessories for extended reach in precision fastener applications.
Also available as part of the Milwaukee SHOCKWAVE 3-piece socket adapter set (48-32-5033) covering all three standard socket drive sizes — see Milwaukee's complete SHOCKWAVE adapter lineup.
