Williams Comfort Products JHWBM-1206 Shallow Socket 6MM

Product Description

The WILLIAMS COMFORT PRODUCTS JHWBM-1206 is a shallow metric socket designed for professional-grade fastener work. Built on a 3/8 inch drive, this socket fits 6 MM fasteners and measures 1 inch in overall length with a compact 0.6 x 0.6 inch profile. The lobular opening geometry increases turning power on the fastener while reducing the risk of rounding or deforming the head. It is suited for mechanics, millwrights, and service technicians who work with metric hardware in tight or depth-restricted spaces.

This socket is intended for use in applications where shallow reach is required and standard-depth sockets would bottom out before seating fully on the fastener. Typical use cases include panel fasteners, equipment enclosures, and metric hardware found in HVAC equipment, electrical panels, and light industrial assemblies. The 3/8 inch drive size makes it compatible with a wide range of standard ratchets, extensions, and drive tools commonly carried in trade toolkits.

Key Features

• Lobular opening design increases torque transfer and reduces fastener deformation
• Designed for quick engagement on both 6-point and 12-point fasteners
• Shallow profile suits depth-restricted access points
• 3/8 inch drive fits standard ratchets and extensions
• Metric sizing at 6 MM for compatibility with metric hardware

Compatibility

Designed as a shallow metric socket for use with 3/8 inch drive ratchets and extensions on 6 MM fasteners in both 6-point and 12-point configurations.

Installation Notes

This socket is installed by mechanics and service technicians as part of standard hand-tool service work. Ensure the drive tool is fully seated in the socket before applying torque to avoid slippage. Inspect the socket for cracks or wear before use on high-torque fasteners. No power-down or lockout procedures are required for socket use alone, but follow applicable lockout-tagout procedures when servicing energized or pressurized equipment.
