Williams Comfort Products JHWH-1240 Shallow Socket

Product Description

The WILLIAMS COMFORT PRODUCTS JHWH-1240 is a shallow SAE socket built for professional use in tight-clearance fastening applications. It features a 1/2 inch drive and fits a 1-1/4 inch fastener size, with an overall length of approximately 2.25 inches. The shallow profile allows access where a standard-depth socket would not fit. SUPERTORQUE lobular openings distribute torque across the fastener flats rather than the corners, reducing the chance of rounding during removal or installation. Mechanics, millwrights, and service technicians working with hex fasteners in confined spaces will find this socket suited to those demands.

This socket is intended for use in industrial maintenance, mechanical assembly, and field service environments where 1/2 inch drive tooling is standard. The shallow design makes it a practical choice when working around obstructions such as flanges, frames, or adjacent components. It is sold as a single unit and is appropriate for both hand-torque and powered impact applications depending on the material rating of the socket.

Key Features

• SUPERTORQUE lobular openings reduce fastener deformation during high-torque removal
• Shallow profile for use in low-clearance fastening locations
• Compatible with both 6-point and 12-point fasteners
• 1/2 inch drive for use with standard 1/2 inch ratchets and breaker bars
• SAE sizing — fits 1-1/4 inch fasteners

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement shallow socket for use with standard 1/2 inch drive ratchets, extensions, and torque wrenches in SAE fastener applications.

Installation Notes

This socket is installed and operated by mechanics, maintenance technicians, and trade professionals using 1/2 inch drive hand or power tools. Ensure the socket is fully seated on the fastener before applying torque to avoid slippage. Inspect the socket for cracks or wear before use, particularly when applying high torque loads. Do not use hand-rated sockets with impact drivers unless the socket is rated for impact use.
