Common questions about WRIGHT from 3G Electric.
What drive sizes are available for WRIGHT impact sockets from 3G Electric?
WRIGHT impact sockets supplied by 3G Electric are available in drive sizes from 1/4-inch to 2-1/2-inch, including 1/2-inch, 3/4-inch, 1-inch, 1-1/2-inch, and 2-1/2-inch. Both SAE and metric sizes are stocked. Socket configurations include 6-point and 8-point, standard and deep lengths, with black oxide finish. The range covers socket sizes from 3/8-inch to 4-1/2-inch SAE and corresponding metric equivalents.
Are WRIGHT wrenches available in metric sizes through 3G Electric?
Yes, 3G Electric supplies WRIGHT wrenches in metric sizes. The product line includes combination wrenches, open-end wrenches, and box-end wrenches in metric head sizes. For example, the WRIGHT Metric Service Tool Set (MPN 195) includes 12-point deep metric hand sockets and metric wrenches. Individual metric wrenches are also available, with head sizes ranging from 6mm to 50mm, depending on the model.
What finish options are offered on WRIGHT tools from 3G Electric?
WRIGHT tools from 3G Electric are available in two primary finishes: satin and black oxide. Satin finish is typical on open-end and combination wrenches, providing a corrosion-resistant surface without added thickness. Black oxide finish is standard on impact sockets and spud wrenches, offering mild corrosion resistance and reduced glare. Both finishes are applied after heat treatment and do not affect dimensional tolerances.
Does 3G Electric carry WRIGHT tool sets for industrial maintenance?
Yes, 3G Electric stocks WRIGHT tool sets designed for industrial maintenance. The WRIGHT Metric Service Tool Set (SKU 868VD9, MPN 195) is a 122-piece set that includes slip joint pliers, slotted screwdrivers with square shanks, 12-point deep metric hand sockets, an adjustable wrench, and other tools. These sets are intended for field service and shop use, packaged in a portable case. Additional sets may be available upon request.
What is the difference between WRIGHT impact sockets and hand sockets?
WRIGHT impact sockets are designed for use with power tools such as impact wrenches and are made from thicker, tougher alloy steel to withstand repeated high-torque impacts. They have a black oxide finish and are typically 6-point or 8-point. Hand sockets are intended for manual ratchets and have a thinner wall profile, available in 6-point or 12-point configurations. WRIGHT hand sockets are often chrome-plated or satin-finished. 3G Electric supplies both types, with impact sockets covering drive sizes up to 2-1/2-inch and hand sockets up to 1-inch drive.
Are WRIGHT spud wrenches available with offset designs?
Yes, 3G Electric offers WRIGHT spud wrenches with offset designs. The SAE Offset Open End Spud Wrench (MPN 1728) has a 15/16-inch offset and a 2-inch head size. The SAE Offset Box End Spud Wrench (MPN 1756) features a 1-25/32-inch offset and a 1-15/32-inch head size. These offsets provide clearance for aligning bolt holes in structural steel and heavy equipment assembly.
