Proto J5408A Slotted Screwdriver Socket 1/2 in Drive

Product Description

The PROTO J5408A is a slotted screwdriver socket designed for use with 1/2 inch drive ratchets and extensions. The blade measures 1/2 inch wide by 0.091 inches thick, making it suited for standard slotted fasteners that require socket-drive torque application. Overall length is approximately 3.2 inches. The socket allows technicians to drive slotted screws in confined or high-torque situations where a standard screwdriver cannot provide adequate force. It is a single-piece socket intended for professional tool sets used by mechanics, electricians, plumbers, and HVAC technicians working on equipment with slotted fastener heads.

This screwdriver socket is appropriate for residential and commercial service applications where slotted fasteners must be driven or removed using a 1/2 inch drive tool. Common install scenarios include panel work, equipment housing fasteners, and mechanical assemblies where slotted drive sockets are specified. The 3.2 inch overall length provides clearance in recessed fastener locations. It is sold individually as a single-unit package.

Follow applicable trade codes and equipment manufacturer guidelines when accessing fastener assemblies.
