Working on modern hybrid and electric vehicles often involves removing numerous fasteners, many of them recessed or difficult to access. The new Laser Tools 9269 Deep Impact Socket Set with Non-conductive Drive Adaptor offers a practical solution, combining the speed and convenience of cordless impact tools with the extended reach of deep sockets and the added protection of electrical isolation.
The six-piece set includes five deep, impact-quality sockets and a specially designed non-conductive 3/8" drive adaptor. With no metal-to-metal contact between its input and output drives, the adaptor electrically isolates the socket from the impact wrench, making it particularly useful for technicians working on or around high-voltage vehicle components.
The 63mm-long sockets provide the extra reach needed to access recessed fasteners, while their impact-rated construction allows them to withstand the demands of cordless impact-wrench operation. This combination is particularly useful when removing multiple fixings from EV battery casings, covers and associated components, helping technicians work efficiently without constantly changing tools.
The set includes five popular metric sizes — 8, 10, 12, 13 and 14mm — all featuring a single-hex (six-point) profile and manufactured from chrome molybdenum steel with a durable black finish.
The supplied non-conductive adaptor (also available separately as Laser Part No. 9277) features a 3/8" female to 3/8" male drive configuration, with a safe working torque of 100Nm and a maximum torque rating of 200Nm. Importantly, the impact sockets themselves are not insulated; electrical isolation is provided by the specially constructed adaptor.
Part of the comprehensive Laser Tools hybrid and EV safety range, the 9269 is designed to complement the specialist equipment used by technicians servicing modern electric and hybrid vehicles. The Laser Tools programme has been developed in conjunction with leading UK vehicle manufacturers and importers, covering specialist tooling, test instruments and workshop safety equipment.
The complete six-piece set is supplied in a compact EVA foam storage tray, keeping the sockets and adaptor organised and protected in the workshop tool cabinet while helping to reduce unnecessary packaging waste.
