Impact Socket Style: Chamfered or Flat

[Alex_OT]

When you look for Impact Sockets whether it be for an upgrade, new sizes, replacing damaged ones, or replacing the damn 10mm...what type of socket do you look for? Chamfered or Flat? The chamfered one that guides the impact wrench more easily into the socket or the flat one that allows for more surface area engagement of the drive?

What style are your impact sockets? Do you have a preference? Why do you prefer the style that you do?

I like both personally I always tell people to get what you like best. I always get the chamfered ones off easier.

Never knew about this concept until now.
