Milwaukee 49-66-6227 SHOCKWAVE 1/2" Drive 13/16" Deep 6-Point Impact Socket

The Milwaukee 49-66-6227 is a SHOCKWAVE Impact Duty 1/2" drive, 13/16" deep, 6-point socket engineered for use with impact wrenches on professional job sites. Built as part of Milwaukee's SHOCKWAVE Impact Duty accessory lineup, this socket is designed to stand up to the repeated high-torque impacts generated by pneumatic and cordless impact wrenches, rather than being limited to hand-ratchet duty. The 6-point opening delivers a secure grip on fastener heads to help reduce rounding on stubborn or corroded hardware, while the 13/16" deep socket profile provides the extra clearance needed to reach fasteners on longer bolts, studs, and recessed applications where a standard-depth socket won't seat fully. A 1/2" square drive makes this socket compatible with the 1/2" drive impact wrenches and ratchets commonly used across automotive, industrial, and construction trades, giving techs and installers a single accessory that can move between vehicle service bays, equipment assembly lines, and general job-site fastening work.

Key Features

  • Drive Size: 1/2" square drive for direct compatibility with standard 1/2" drive impact wrenches and ratchets.
  • Deep Socket Depth: 13/16" deep design provides added clearance for reaching fasteners on longer bolts, studs, and recessed hardware.
  • 6-Point Configuration: 6-point opening grips fastener heads securely to help minimize rounding under sustained high-torque impact.
  • SHOCKWAVE Impact Duty: Engineered as part of Milwaukee's SHOCKWAVE Impact Duty accessory line specifically for the repeated impact cycles of powered impact wrenches.
  • Deep-Well Access: The extended depth reduces the need to switch sockets when working on extended-length fasteners in tight or recessed locations.
  • Professional-Grade Build: Sized and configured for daily use by technicians and tradespeople who rely on impact-rated accessories to keep jobs moving.

Milwaukee 49-66-6220 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What socket sizes does the Milwaukee SHOCKWAVE 1/2 in. drive 6-point deep socket come in?
Nine SAE sizes, all on a 1/2 inch square drive: 3/8, 1/2, 9/16, 5/8, 3/4, 13/16, 7/8, 1 and 1-1/8 inch. Each is ordered as its own part number, from 49-66-6220 for the 3/8 inch up to 49-66-6232 for the 1-1/8 inch. There is no metric size in the group, so if your fasteners are metric you need a different set.
2) Can I use these sockets on a cordless impact wrench, or are they hand-ratchet only?
They are built for impact use. The SHOCKWAVE Impact Duty line is engineered for the repeated high-torque cycles of pneumatic and cordless impact wrenches, not limited to hand-ratchet duty. The 1/2 inch square drive fits standard 1/2 inch drive impact wrenches and ratchets, so the same socket moves between an impact gun and a hand ratchet.
3) Will a deep socket reach a nut on a long threaded stud or anchor bolt?
That is what the deep profile is for. The extended body clears the exposed length of long bolts, studs and recessed hardware so the socket seats fully on the nut, where a standard-depth socket bottoms out on the thread. Common on equipment anchor bolts, strut and rod work, and automotive studs.
4) Should I buy 6-point or 12-point impact sockets for rusted or rounded-off nuts?
Go 6-point for corroded or stubborn hardware. The 6-point opening contacts the flats of the fastener head rather than the corners, which spreads load and helps keep the nut from rounding under sustained impact. A 12-point is only worth it when you need more engagement angles in a tight swing; it gives up grip on rusted fasteners. These SHOCKWAVE deep sockets are 6-point.
5) Do these Milwaukee sockets only work with Milwaukee impact wrenches?
No, the 1/2 inch square drive is an industry-standard interface, so these fit any 1/2 inch drive impact wrench or ratchet regardless of brand. Milwaukee builds the SHOCKWAVE line as a purpose-built match for its own impact tools, but there is nothing proprietary about the drive end.
6) Is the socket size on these sockets the fastener size or the bolt diameter?
The stated size is the fastener size across the flats, so a 13/16 inch socket (49-66-6227) fits a 13/16 inch hex nut or bolt head, which is typically a 1/2 inch diameter bolt. Size the socket to the head, not the thread.
