Klein Tools Impact Flip Socket Swivel Adapter Set 32982 3 Piece (1/4 5/16 Inch Hex Magnetic 25 Degree Universal Joint Power Driver Conversion)

Klein Tools 32982 3-Piece 25-Degree Swivel Magnetic Impact Flip Socket Adapter Set

The Klein Tools 32982 3-Piece Swivel Magnetic Impact Flip Socket Set functions as a universal joint power driving system engineered to convert 1/4 inch quick-connect power impact driver chucks into dual-size 1/4 inch and 5/16 inch magnetic hex socket drivers with 25-degree flex articulation and 360-degree rotation. Measuring 5-71/100 inches (5.71 inches) in overall assembly length within a slim outer housing profile of 0.62 inches wide by 0.62 inches high and weighing just 1-3/5 oz (1.6 oz), this heat-treated steel driver set features a black oxide protective finish, internal rare-earth magnets, and a quick-detachable swivel joint. Engineered to withstand continuous high-torque rotational shock loads from power drivers, this compact conversion system allows commercial HVAC technicians, electricians, and sheet metal installers to drive hex-head lag screws and duct fasteners in confined enclosures or detach the swivel adapter for fixed, straight inline driving.

Best Used For:

• Confined HVAC & Electrical Fastening: Reaching obstructed sheet metal screws, duct straps, and panel lugs using 25-degree off-axis articulation with 360-degree rotation.
• Dual-Size Magnetic Nut Driving: Rapidly flipping between 1/4 inch and 5/16 inch hex socket ends to secure self-drilling screws without dropping hardware off driver bits.
• Fixed Inline Power Driver Operation: Detaching the swivel joint to run the short flip socket shaft directly in standard impact chucks for rigid inline bolting stability.

Key Performance & Safety Features

• 25-Degree Swivel Joint with 360-Degree Rotation: Precision-milled articulation head provides max maneuverability when driving fasteners inside cramped or angled jobsite clearance gaps.
• Reversible Dual-Size Flip Socket Head: Deep-well socket sleeve slides and flips instantly to alternate between 1/4 inch and 5/16 inch hex drive sizes.
• Integrated High-Strength Retention Magnet: Internal magnet firmly holds hex fasteners and driver bits in place to simplify one-handed starting overhead.
• Detachable Swivel Joint Design: Allows the short flip socket shaft to uncouple from the universal flex joint for direct fixed driving on impact driver chucks.
• Impact-Rated Steel Construction: Heat-treated alloy steel body withstands extreme rotational impact shock loads without cracking or rounding drive sockets.
• Rust-Resistant Black Oxide Coating: Protective industrial coating shields metal surfaces against moisture oxidation and jobsite fluid corrosion.

What's Included

• (1) 1/4-Inch Power Hex Shank to 25-Degree Swivel Adapter Drive Joint
• (1) 1/4-Inch to 5/16-Inch Magnetic Hex Reversible Flip Socket Shaft (Cat. No. 32982)
• (1) Short Extension Pass-Through Adapter Shaft

Technical Specifications

Pro-Tip: Periodically wipe metal shavings out of the internal magnet well when driving self-drilling sheet metal screws. Clearing accumulated metal debris maintains deep socket engagement over hex fastener heads, preventing slippage and bit cam-out under high RPMs.
