Williams Comfort Products JHWH-1268 Shallow Socket 1/2 in

Product Description

The WILLIAMS COMFORT PRODUCTS JHWH-1268 is a shallow-profile SAE socket designed for use with a 1/2 inch drive ratchet or breaker bar. With an overall length of 3.25 inches and a 2.125 inch opening size, this socket fits standard hex fasteners in tight-clearance applications where a deep socket will not seat properly. The lobular internal profile engages both 6-point and 12-point fasteners, applying torque to the flat sides of the fastener head to reduce rounding. Mechanics and industrial maintenance technicians reach for this socket when working in confined spaces around machinery, fasteners, and structural hardware.

The JHWH-1268 is suited for general mechanical and industrial maintenance tasks where a shallow socket profile is required. It is appropriate for production lines, equipment repair, and field service work where fastener access is limited. The 1/2 inch drive connection is compatible with standard 1/2 inch drive ratchets, extensions, and torque wrenches commonly found in professional tool sets.

Installation Notes

Installation and removal of fasteners should be performed by a qualified mechanic or maintenance technician. Ensure the drive tool is rated for the torque required by the application before use. Inspect the socket for cracks or wear before each use and remove from service if damage is found. Do not use with impact drivers unless the socket is rated for impact use.
