Proto J5752 Hand Socket 1-5/8 Inch 12-point 1 in Drive

Product Description

The PROTO J5752 is a 1-5/8 inch, 12-point hand socket with a 1 inch drive, built for heavy-duty fastener work in trade and industrial environments. Constructed from alloy steel with a satin finish, this standard-length socket measures 3.25 inches overall length. The 12-point configuration provides more contact positions around the fastener, making it useful when swing arc is limited. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, mechanics, and industrial maintenance technicians reach for sockets in this drive and size class when working with large-diameter fasteners on pipe flanges, structural hardware, and heavy equipment assemblies.

This socket is suited for stationary and field service applications where 1 inch drive tools are standard. The standard length profile fits most fastener depths without the added reach of a deep socket, keeping the setup compact. It meets ASME B107.110-2012, the recognized performance standard for hand sockets in North America. Typical use cases include flange bolt work, large valve packing glands, structural fasteners, and similar high-torque applications where a 1-5/8 inch fastener is involved.

Key Features

• 1-5/8 inch socket size for large-diameter fasteners
• 12-point design allows more engagement positions in tight swing situations
• 1 inch drive accepts standard 1 inch drive ratchets, breaker bars, and torque wrenches
• Alloy steel construction for high-torque service
• Satin finish resists surface corrosion and reduces glare
• Meets ASME B107.110-2012 performance standard

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard 1 inch drive hand tools including ratchets, breaker bars, and torque wrenches. Fits 1-5/8 inch 12-point fasteners in industrial, mechanical, and trade service applications.

Installation Notes

Install and remove using a 1 inch drive ratchet, breaker bar, or torque wrench rated for the fastener load. Ensure the socket is fully seated on the fastener before applying torque to avoid rounding. De-energize, depressurize, or lock out the equipment being serviced before using this socket on live systems. Inspect the socket for cracks or wear before use on high-torque applications.
