Need Help With Impact selection!
Hey guys i just got a new impact gun, the IR2135Ti and now i need sockets, which sockets would u reccomend? i am new to the industry (im in school) and i decide between 6 point impact or 12 point impact and which would be best for overall use size wise? i dont see much use for a 10 mm impact socket right now. thanks guys! hey btw if anyone needs tools from matco, i get 52% off so let me know if u want something!

Everything I have is 12 point with the exception of my impact stuff..(simply because they didnt have it on the truck) I used a set of craftsman 6 point impact sockets everyday for 2 years straight and never had a problem. only reason I bought new Snap on ones is the tool guys like a drug dealer...I'd say its better to have a 12 point set rather than a 6 it would be like having 2 sets

from 9/16th to 1" and a few big ones for front end spindels don't know sizes. 6 point is great. I have been using a cheep set of Cummings 6 points for a long time and I have a IR Top Gun wrench. this is a preatty high torque wrench and I havent broke one. if you don't have a lot of cash, for now, buy a cheep set of 6 point impacts and get all sizes.
