yes but the purpose behind the 12 point is cost...it's cheaper to make
than the 6 point. A 6 point will break before it ruins the nut, a 12 point
will ruin the nut before it breaks. If 12 point were any good then they
would sell impact sockets in 12 point. They don't because they know they
won't work.
