Williams Comfort Products JHWB-616 Shallow Socket 3/8 Drive

Product Description

The WILLIAMS COMFORT PRODUCTS JHWB-616 is a shallow SAE socket designed for use with a 3/8 inch drive. It accepts 1/2 inch fasteners and has an overall length of 1 1/32 inches. The socket features lobular internal openings that increase turning force while reducing the risk of rounding off fastener heads. It is sold individually and suits trade professionals who need a compact, low-profile socket for work in confined spaces. Electricians, plumbers, HVAC techs, and general maintenance trades keep this type of socket in rotation for panel work, equipment mounting, and service access tasks.

This socket is suited for applications where standard-depth sockets are too tall to clear surrounding hardware or housings. The shallow profile makes it useful in tight equipment bays, electrical enclosures, and mechanical rooms where fastener access is restricted. The 3/8 inch drive keeps it compatible with a wide range of common ratchets and extensions used in trade service work.

Key Features

• Shallow profile for use in confined or low-clearance fastener locations
• Lobular internal openings increase torque transfer and reduce fastener deformation
• Designed for maximum engagement on 6-point fasteners
• SAE sizing: 1/2 inch fastener, 3/8 inch drive
• Overall length of 1 1/32 inches keeps the tool compact

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement socket compatible with standard 3/8 inch drive ratchets, extensions, and torque wrenches using SAE sizing.

Installation Notes

This socket is used by licensed trades and maintenance professionals working with hand tools and power ratchets. Always confirm the fastener size before applying torque to avoid rounding the head. Use appropriate torque tools per equipment manufacturer specifications. Keep drive components clean and inspect for wear before use in critical fastener applications.
