Select Home Depot Stores: 19-Pc Milwaukee SHOCKWAVE 1/2" SAE Impact Socket Set
$55
$105
47% off
(In-Store Purchase Only)at Home Depot
Community Reviews
This Milwaukee 19 piece 1 half inch drive SAE impact socket set is drawing attention as a clearance buy for homeowners and anyone needing larger SAE sizes. The set is useful for plumbing and water heater work, and the socket size markings are easy to read. The case and cage locked checkout process came up repeatedly, and the price varies by store, with some locations still at $89 while others ring up at $55. The main hesitation is value, since cheaper deep impact sets exist and adapters can add bulk and reduce torque.
Common Questions (5)
The Milwaukee set costs more than generic or Husky alternatives, but it offers the full 19-piece SAE range and easy-to-read socket sizes. Cheaper sets can cover only part of the range, so the value depends on whether you need the larger sockets and prefer the Milwaukee case and markings.
Yes. The set can ring up at $55 even when the in-store clearance tag still shows $89, and the lower price may only appear at checkout or online. Rechecking later can help because some stores drop from $89 to $55 after the tag has already been posted.
No. Pricing varies by location, with some stores showing $89 while nearby stores have it at $55. Checking other stores or rechecking your local store daily can uncover the lower clearance price.
Yes. Some stores keep it locked in a cage, and a manager may need to unlock it and walk it to checkout. That can also affect pickup flow because the item may not be freely accessible on the shelf.
It adds seven larger SAE sockets beyond the 12-piece set, covering 1-1/8 through 1-1/2 inches. That makes it useful if you already have the smaller sizes and need the bigger sockets for homeowner jobs like plumbing and water-heater anode rods.

5 left at West Hills home Depot at $55. I just grabbed one. They are in the cage in the Milwaukee display between the cashiers and tool area.
How useful do you think those larger bits would be? So far I haven't needed anything that large
