We've picked up some HF impact sockets and used them with good

But we have lost one or two, grrr..

I wonder where folks have gone to buy single sockets. Sears is

HF.

How about a "real tool jobber"
Your Snap-Off salesman will gladly provide you with whatever size you
need in whatever quantity you want. (just as an example) as will any
industrial supplier.
