Williams Comfort Products JHWBM-618 Shallow Socket 18MM

Product Description

The WILLIAMS COMFORT PRODUCTS JHWBM-618 is an 18 MM metric shallow socket designed for use with a 3/8 inch drive ratchet or extension. Built with SUPERTORQUE lobular openings, this socket applies torque to the sides of a fastener rather than the corners, reducing the risk of rounding off fasteners during high-torque applications. With an overall length of 1.2 inches, the shallow profile is well suited for fasteners in tight or recessed spaces where a deep socket would not fit. This socket is sold individually and is intended for professional mechanics, maintenance technicians, and industrial tradespeople working with metric fasteners.

The JHWBM-618 is designed for metric fastener applications across automotive, industrial, and mechanical maintenance environments. The shallow socket profile makes it appropriate for use where clearance is limited above or around the fastener head. The 3/8 inch drive sizing places it in a range commonly used for medium-duty fastening tasks where a 1/2 inch drive would be excessive and a 1/4 inch drive would be insufficient. It is sold as a single unit, making it a practical replacement or addition to an existing socket set.

Key Features

• SUPERTORQUE lobular opening design applies force to fastener flats, not corners, reducing fastener deformation

• 18 MM metric size with 3/8 inch drive compatibility
• Shallow profile at 1.2 inches overall length for use in confined spaces

Compatibility

Installation Notes

This socket is intended for use by qualified mechanics and maintenance technicians familiar with hand tool safety practices. Ensure the socket is fully seated on the fastener before applying torque. Do not use impact-rated tools with this socket unless the socket is rated for impact use. Inspect the socket for cracks or wear before each use and replace if any damage is found.
