Metric Deep impact socket question?
Just found out that the socket set that I have is metric, is there any chance that this would fit in my impact tool 285B-6?
The impact wrench is an IR Impact tool 285B-6
and the socket set is SAE S68M36L IR 8-pc deep impact socket set.
Im using it for Tire removal (1in drive).
the sockets are 1in drive.
will i still be able to use these metric sockets?

I dont see why not, since the sockets fit onto metric bolts or nuts.
The drive should be a standard size, someone mentioned them all, but I think they are like 1/4, 3/8, 1/2 and 1 inch although I am not positive on that since I have only used 1/4 and 1/2 ones.

metric refers to the fastener side opening. The sockets themselves will be either 1/4, 3/8, 1/2, 3/4, 1 on the tool side which is what your impact wrench will take.

what application are you using it on, if the sockets will not work the nuts or bolts could be standard.
