Proto J5415M Hand Socket 15 Mm 12-point 1/2 Drive

Product Description

The PROTO J5415M is a 15 mm, 12-point hand socket designed for use with a 1/2 inch drive ratchet or breaker bar. Chrome-plated and built to standard length, it is suited for professional mechanics, maintenance technicians, and trade professionals working on fasteners in tight or standard-access applications. The 12-point geometry allows engagement at 30-degree increments, giving the technician more positioning options in confined spaces. The chrome finish provides corrosion resistance for shop and field use.

This socket is appropriate for general mechanical service work including HVAC equipment, plumbing rough-in, electrical panel installation, and industrial maintenance where 15 mm fasteners are common. It fits into standard 1/2 inch drive socket sets and is compatible with extensions, universal joints, and torque wrenches that accept a 1/2 inch square drive. It is sold as a single unit and is a standard-length design suitable for most exposed fastener applications.

Key Features

• 15 mm socket size for metric fastener applications
• 12-point design allows engagement every 30 degrees for flexibility in tight spaces
• 1/2 inch square drive compatible with standard ratchets, breaker bars, and torque wrenches
• Chrome-plated finish resists corrosion in shop and field environments
• Standard length profile suits the majority of exposed fastener scenarios

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or addition to any 1/2 inch drive socket set requiring a standard-length 15 mm 12-point socket.

Installation Notes

Installation and removal of fasteners should be performed by qualified trade professionals using appropriate torque specifications for the application. Ensure the socket is fully seated on the fastener before applying force to prevent rounding. Use with a calibrated torque wrench when fastener torque specifications are required. Inspect the socket for cracks or wear before each use and remove from service if damage is found.
