Williams Comfort Products JHW8-682 Shallow Impact Socket

Product Description

The WILLIAMS COMFORT PRODUCTS JHW8-682 is a shallow impact socket designed for heavy-duty fastener work in industrial and mechanical service applications. Built with a 1-1/2 inch drive and a 2-9/16 inch opening, this SAE socket delivers high torque transfer through SUPERTORQUE lobular geometry that grips fastener flats rather than corners. The overall length measures approximately 4 inches, keeping the profile compact where clearance is limited. It is specially heat treated for impact use, making it suitable for sustained use with pneumatic and electric impact wrenches. Maintenance technicians, millwrights, and heavy equipment mechanics are the primary users of this size class.

This socket is used in industrial maintenance, heavy equipment repair, and structural assembly where large-diameter SAE fasteners require high torque without damaging the fastener head. The shallow profile is preferred when access depth is restricted and a deep socket would not fit the application. At 7.06 pounds, this is a substantial forged piece built for high-cycle impact environments rather than hand-tool use.

Key Features

• SUPERTORQUE lobular openings grip fastener flats to increase turning power and reduce fastener deformation
• Designed for maximum engagement on 6-point fasteners
• Compatible with pneumatic and electric impact wrenches
• Specially heat treated for impact service to extend service life and maintain structural integrity
• Shallow profile reduces overall length for tight-clearance installations
• SAE sizing for use with inch-standard fasteners

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct service socket for 1-1/2 inch drive impact wrenches and torque multipliers using SAE fasteners in industrial and heavy equipment applications.

Installation Notes

Installation and use should be performed by qualified mechanics or maintenance technicians familiar with large-drive impact tooling. Always confirm the socket is fully seated on the drive anvil before applying torque. Inspect the socket for cracks or deformation before each use and remove from service if damage is found. Never use impact sockets with standard hand-tool ratchets or breaker bars not rated for impact loads.
