Proto J5346H Deep Hand Socket 1-7/16 in 6-point 1/2 in Drive

Product Description

The PROTO J5346H is a deep hand socket designed for professional fastener work requiring extended reach. Built to a 1-7/16 inch socket size with a 1/2 inch square drive and a 6-point internal geometry, this socket delivers solid contact on hex fasteners and reduces the risk of rounding. The overall length measures 3.5 inches, making it suitable for recessed bolt and nut applications where standard-depth sockets cannot reach. Constructed from alloy steel with a chrome finish, the J5346H meets AS4984A and ASME B107.110-2012 standards, confirming compliance with recognized industry dimensional and performance requirements. It is not tether capable. Licensed mechanics, millwrights, and industrial maintenance technicians rely on this type of deep socket for drivetrain, structural, and equipment assembly work.

The J5346H is suited for use in automotive, industrial, and commercial maintenance environments where 1-7/16 inch fasteners appear in deep or recessed settings. Typical applications include suspension components, heavy equipment fasteners, pump and compressor assemblies, and structural hardware. The 1/2 inch drive size is compatible with standard 1/2 inch drive ratchets, breaker bars, torque wrenches, and extensions commonly found in professional tool sets. The 6-point design is preferred over 12-point in high-torque situations where slipping or fastener damage is a concern.

Key Features

• 1-7/16 inch socket size for large hex fasteners in deep or recessed locations
• 6-point geometry maximizes contact area and reduces fastener rounding
• 1/2 inch drive accepts standard ratchets, breaker bars, and torque wrenches
• 3.5 inch overall length provides extended reach over standard-depth sockets
• Alloy steel construction with chrome finish for durability and corrosion resistance
• Meets AS4984A and ASME B107.110-2012 standards

Compatibility

Designed for use with 1/2 inch drive hand tools including ratchets, breaker bars, extensions, and torque wrenches. Fits standard 1-7/16 inch hex fasteners in professional hand tool applications.

Installation Notes

Installation and removal should be performed by a qualified mechanic or maintenance technician. Ensure the socket is fully seated on the fastener before applying torque to prevent slipping or fastener damage. Use appropriate personal protective equipment when working with high-torque applications. This socket is not tether capable and should not be used in elevated or overhead work environments where drop prevention is required.
