JobSmart's 10 piece 1 half inch drive deep impact socket set stands out as a very cheap way to get cased metric or SAE deep sockets for general garage and roadside use. The lifetime guarantee and sturdy case add appeal, and the larger sizes fit common jobs like lug nuts and trailer toolboxes. The main drawback is the small metric end, since the set tops out at 19 mm and the 8 mm to 12 mm sockets are risky on a 1 half inch impact. It is a compact, budget set best suited to bigger fasteners.

An 8mm head is only an M5 bolt. It will be destroyed using a 1/2 impact on it. The entire reason i mentioned that the sockets are too small to be used on 1/2 drives.

Do some research.....
No, you should not use a 1/2-inch impact wrench on an M5 bolt.An M5 bolt is a very small fastener (5mm diameter) that typically requires a tightening torque of only 4 to 6 Newton-meters (Nm), or about 3 to 4.5 foot-pounds (ft-lbs). In stark contrast, a standard 1/2-inch impact wrench is a heavy-duty tool designed to deliver anywhere from 200 to over 1,200 Nm of torque. Using a tool of this size will instantly shear the head right off an M5 bolt, strip its threads, or snap the fastener in
I use 1/4" ratchet for 5 mm to 10 mm, 3/8" ratchet for 11 mm to 15 mm, and 1/2" ratchet for 16 mm or larger. Step up to a breaker bar if you need more than 120 ft-lbs of torque.

All my Milwaukee impacts have variable speed triggers. If you're scared simply put the tool down and walk away.

Wow, if your seriously running around with a 8mm socket strapped to a 1/2 impact you should have never even picked the tool up!

Pros don't use a 1/2" impact on fasteners smaller than 15 mm, especially on 8 mm bolt. Stick to a 3/8" impact if you wrench all day for a living. A 3/8" roto head ratchet can reach difficult locations without much effort [unless you're playhouse Pee Wee Herman].Small severely rusted fasteners or those treated with red Loctite are most prone to breakage. The most effective solution is to apply heat to break the bond, then use a Vise Grip to remove the fastener. The HF deep impact set {10 mm to 32 mm} was $20 a few weeks back. It's still reasonably priced today at $25. Regular impact is only $18. There are many HF stores in the US for quick exchange if defective.https://www.harborfreight.com/12-...69561.htmlhttps://www.harborfreight.com/12-...64385.html
Suggesting vice grips over sockets for a rusty fastener is certainly a choice. Good luck!

10mm and 8mm are pretty popular nut sizes nowadays.

And most impact wrenches are 1/2".

So it makes sense to start a 1/2" kit at 8mm (especially if you are servicing a rusty portable generator).

The HF Pittsburgh deep 1/2" impact set starts at 10mm, and costs $35

It might cost you $5 for just a 10mm 1/2" impact socket alone......
Rusty 8 or 10mm and 1/2" impact sounds like a disaster. Most like likely will end up with a broken bolt which will need to be extracted!

If you just blast away, of course the head will shear right off.

If you pulse it, in little hammer bursts, the rust will shatter from the blows. It's a skill worth practicing, if you want to take your mechanical skills to the next level.

The rule from school always was: Ratchet-> Breaker Bar-> Impact-> Torch

Of course, nowadays we use Induction Bolt Heaters more than Oxy, but sometimes the torch has to come out.

Yeah, I have been through a dozen or so 1/2" impacts from pneumatic 20+ years ago to the modern brushless high torque ones and none of them are low-torque enough to NOT shear off an 8mm bolt. Even the 3/8 butterfly impacts that I had would destroy an 8mm. Same with my brushless 1/4" impact drivers... dont get me wrong, I have paid more than this price for just one of these sockets, but if you ever put an 8mm onto a 1/2" drive anything, you should permanently hang up your tools.

First apply heat to break the bond. A badly corroded fastener may no longer operate in the Young's modulus curve.

Electric motor have instant torque. A good 1/2" impact will hit 50 ft-lbs in 0.5 sec. Instant destruction if the 8 mm bolt is severely corroded. Soak in Pb Blaster or ATF if you can't afford a torch. Then use Vise Grip with back and forth motion to remove the bolt.

You forgot soaking with PB blaster a few days before actually working on something (if time allows) then heat then repeat
