            Choosing the Right Socket Set

            Drive size determines which sockets fit which ratchet, 1/4-inch suits light work, 3/8 inch is the most common general size, and 1/2-inch suits heavier torque jobs. Standard sockets should never be used with an impact wrench; an impact rated socket is designed to handle the sudden torque without cracking.
