Proto J5282AM Hand Socket 19mm 12-point 3/8 Drive

Product Description

The PROTO J5282AM is a 19 mm, 12-point hand socket designed for professional mechanical and industrial applications. Built from alloy steel with a chrome-plated finish, this socket fits a 3/8 inch drive and features a universal/flex socket type for access in tight or angled positions. The overall length is 1-59/64 inches. Licensed tradespeople and maintenance technicians rely on this socket for fastener removal and installation where a flex or swivel approach is needed. It meets ASME B107.5M standards, making it appropriate for use in regulated service environments.

This socket is suited for automotive, fleet, and general mechanical service work where 19 mm fasteners are common. The universal/flex design allows the socket to articulate off-axis, which is useful when working around obstructions or in restricted access areas. It is packaged as a single unit and is appropriate for both shop and field use by mechanics, technicians, and industrial maintenance professionals.

Installation Notes

This socket is installed and removed by hand or with standard 3/8 inch drive tooling. Ensure the drive connection is fully seated before applying torque to prevent slippage or fastener damage. Inspect the socket and drive tool for wear or cracking before use. This product is not tether capable and should not be used in elevated work environments where dropped-tool protocols require tethered tooling.
