why is that?

Assuming that this is not a troll question, solder does indeed stick to
steel. I'd recommend grinding the steel (or sanding) and then using a
liquid flux such as Harris Stay-Clean (hydrochloric acid and zinc, I
believe). You'll need a propane torch for the heat source. You mention
a steel socket. The chrome plating may be the problem. Keep in mind
that solder joints should be very "thin", in other words, a tight fit
between the two pieces to be soldered. If you're trying to fill a 1/8"
gap, soldering is probably not the process you need.
