It accepts a 3\/8 inch drive and fits a 17 mm fastener with a 12-point contact pattern, giving technicians flexibility when working with both standard hex fasteners and rounded or worn hardware. The chrome-plated finish resists corrosion and makes the socket easy to clean after use. At 2.8 inches in length, the deep profile provides clearance for recessed or stud-mounted fasteners that a standard-depth socket cannot reach. Built to ASME B107.5 standards, this socket meets recognized performance requirements for hand socket tools.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe J5017M is suited for use in automotive repair shops, fleet maintenance facilities, HVAC equipment service, and general mechanical work where a deep-reach 17 mm socket on a 3\/8 inch drive is required. The 12-point design works with both impact-style hand turning and standard ratchets, making it a practical choice for technicians who need reach and access in tight or deep fastener locations across a wide range of equipment types.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e17 mm socket size fits common metric fasteners found in automotive and mechanical systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8 inch drive compatibility works with standard ratchets, extensions, and drive accessories\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e12-point contact pattern allows engagement from multiple angles in confined spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDeep profile at 2.8 inches provides clearance for recessed fasteners and stud-mounted hardware\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eChrome-plated finish offers corrosion resistance and easy cleaning\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eManufactured to ASME B107.5 standards for hand socket tools\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style deep hand socket for use with standard 3\/8 inch drive ratchets, extensions, and torque wrenches requiring a 17 mm metric socket.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation and removal of fasteners should be performed by a qualified mechanic or technician familiar with applicable torque requirements for the equipment being serviced. Always ensure the drive tool and socket are fully seated before applying force to avoid rounding fasteners or damaging the drive square. Inspect the socket for cracks or wear before each use and remove from service if damage is found.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSocket Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 17 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrive Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Points\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Deep\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.9 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.9 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.27 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Chrome-Plated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandard\u003c\/strong\u003e: ASME B107.5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: PROTO\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: J5017M\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PROTO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51539438174514,"sku":"J5017M","price":19.32,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/e65587d08fd79fef5c974787ee592f09.jpg?v=1785840251","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/proto-j5017m-deep-hand-socket-17mm-3-8-drive-12-point","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
