TL;DR An 80-piece 3/8-in drive impact socket set covering SAE (5/16 to 3/4 in) and metric (8 to 19 mm) in shallow, deep, and universal configurations, plus Torx and E-Torx specialty sockets; 6-point chrome-molybdenum steel is ANSI B107 compliant and community-confirmed for daily professional impact use. Hand-ratchet and impact wrench rated; no 1/4-in or 1/2-in drive included.
The 3580 covers 3/8-in drive in both SAE (5/16 to 3/4 in) and metric (8 to 19 mm), with standard, deep, and universal wobble variants plus 9 Torx and 9 E-Torx sockets for a verified total of 75 sockets and 5 accessories. Chrome-molybdenum steel is confirmed in the manufacturer spec; 6-point geometry is ANSI B107 compliant. The 10 mm metric socket is present. Owners using this set daily as professional fleet mechanics and millwrights report no rounding failures and no steel degradation under sustained hi-torque impact use. The set is explicitly rated for both impact drivers and impact wrenches per manufacturer spec and community evidence. The 3/8-in drive tops out before larger suspension and wheel fasteners.
Right pick for a home or professional mechanic who needs a 3/8-in drive impact set with complete SAE/metric plus Torx and E-Torx specialty coverage, impact-wrench rated throughout. Skip if 1/2-in drive is needed for lug nuts or large suspension fasteners; skip if 1/4-in drive is needed for trim and small engine sensors.
Physical steel hand tool with no chemical exposure pathway. Cr-Mo alloy is the correct material for impact wrench use; standard chrome-vanadium sockets are not rated for impact drivers and can shatter under high-torque impulse loads. Cr-Mo steel is recyclable as scrap metal; the blow-mold case is not routinely recovered through curbside programs.
The 3580 is a genuine impact socket set. The sockets are made from chrome-molybdenum (Cr-Mo) steel, the alloy standard for impact use, and are listed by Sunex as compatible with both impact drivers and impact wrenches. Cr-Mo sockets have the toughness to absorb rapid high-torque impulses without shattering, unlike standard chrome-vanadium hand sockets.
Yes. The metric range runs from 8 mm to 19 mm continuously, covering 10 mm in shallow, deep, and universal (wobble) configurations. All three metric variants are included for every size in the range.
Both are 3/8-in drive Cr-Mo impact socket sets. The 3342 is a 42-piece set covering SAE and metric in standard and deep variants only. The 3580 is the 80-piece master set that adds universal (wobble) sockets in both SAE and metric, plus a full complement of Torx (T20-T55) and E-Torx (E5-E16) sockets that the 3342 does not include. The 3580 is the more comprehensive choice for work that involves star fasteners common on European vehicles and modern drivetrains.
Yes. Sunex Tools specifies a lifetime warranty on the 3580, as listed in the product specifications. The lifetime warranty is a documented manufacturer commitment that extends the useful life of the set through repair or replacement rather than disposal.
The 3580 is a 3/8-in drive set. For typical lug nuts and larger suspension fasteners (which commonly require 1/2-in drive for the higher torque capacity), a 1/2-in drive set is the appropriate choice. The 3580 handles the majority of engine-bay, brake, and interior fasteners that fall in the 3/8-in drive range, but buyers who frequently work on wheels or suspension components benefit from adding a 1/2-in drive set.
