Williams Comfort Products JHWBM-616 Metric Shallow Socket

Product Description

The WILLIAMS COMFORT PRODUCTS JHWBM-616 is a metric shallow socket designed for fastener removal and installation in professional hand-tool applications. Built for use with a 3/8 inch drive, this socket fits 16 MM fasteners and measures 1.125 inches overall length. The lobular internal opening geometry is engineered to deliver greater rotational force on 6-point fasteners while reducing deformation risk at the contact points. Mechanics, maintenance technicians, and trade professionals working with metric hardware will find this socket suited to tight-clearance areas where a standard-depth socket will not fit.

This shallow metric socket is appropriate for general mechanical and maintenance work where metric fasteners are standard. Its compact overall length of 1.125 inches makes it well-suited for confined spaces in HVAC equipment access panels, electrical enclosures, plumbing fixture mounting hardware, and similar trade applications. It is sold individually and is compatible with any standard 3/8 inch drive ratchet, extension, or torque wrench.

Installation Notes

This socket is installed and used by mechanics, HVAC technicians, electricians, and plumbers working with metric hardware. Always ensure the drive tool and socket are fully engaged before applying torque to avoid rounding fasteners or damaging the socket. Inspect the socket for cracks or wear before each use, and do not use impact drivers with sockets not rated for impact use.
