3/8 thin wall lug nut socket?

[Choi0706]

Has anyone seen these? I've only seen 1/2 sets.

I think Snap On makes a couple of flip socket sets in 3/8" drive. I think they're marketed as lug sockets but I don't know how thin walled they are.

In the comment section of one of the many YouTube videos on the M12 Stubby impacts people were saying they use 3/8" Duo sockets on lugs so they don't have the adapter torque loss of a flip set.

There was a previous thread on this. I'll see if I can find it.

Thanks. But the snap on flip sockets are the same as the regular impact sockets.

The 3/8one is same. I checked on the truck before deciding on not to buy.

just curious, any reason you want 3/8 drive lug nut sockets?

 

[Choi0706]

Portable. And I'd rather not use any adapters.

I have some deep kobalt/williams 3/8 drive impact sockets that are quite thin. They would probably do you.

If you are talking the "flip" lug nut sockets in 3.8" driving, I have been looking for them for 2 years. Get a 1/2" set and a 3/8" - 1/2" adapter,

Snap On 203FLSM.

Expensive.

Because Snap On.

This is what I use, Koken RS13301X/9 - 3/8" semi deep thin wall impact socket set. They're reasonably priced and works with most lug nuts.
