Williams Comfort Products JHW31618BT Sae Bolt Thru Socket

Product Description

The WILLIAMS COMFORT PRODUCTS JHW31618BT is a SAE, bolt-thru drive socket built for professional fastener work in trade and mechanical service applications. Featuring a 9/16 inch opening, 3/8 inch drive, and an overall length of 1 7/16 inches, this socket is engineered with lobular internal geometry to deliver greater turning power on 6-point fasteners without deforming fastener heads. At 0.11 pounds, it is compact and designed for daily service use by HVAC technicians, plumbers, electricians, and mechanical contractors who need reliable hand tool performance in tight or repetitive fastening situations.

This socket is suited for residential and light commercial service work where SAE fasteners are standard. The bolt-thru design allows the socket to pass fully over threaded bolts or studs, making it practical in applications where fastener length would otherwise prevent seating. Trades installing equipment panels, mechanical supports, or service access hardware will find the bolt-thru configuration especially useful in confined equipment bays and mechanical rooms.

Key Features

• Lobular internal openings provide increased turning force on 6-point SAE fasteners
• Bolt-thru design accommodates longer studs and fully threaded fasteners
• 3/8 inch drive fits standard ratchets and extensions common in trade toolkits
• 9/16 inch opening covers a widely used SAE fastener size in HVAC and mechanical work
• Compact 1 7/16 inch overall length suits confined installation environments

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 3/8 inch drive SAE socket for use with compatible ratchets, extensions, and drive tools accepting 3/8 inch square drive accessories.

Installation Notes

Installation and use of this socket requires a compatible 3/8 inch drive ratchet or torque wrench. Always ensure power is disconnected and equipment is de-energized before performing fastener work on electrical panels or mechanical assemblies. Inspect the socket for wear or cracking before each use, and do not use impact drivers unless the socket is rated for impact service.
