Williams Comfort Products JHWM-1208 Shallow Socket 1/4 in

Product Description

The WILLIAMS COMFORT PRODUCTS JHWM-1208 is a shallow-profile SAE socket designed for 1/4 inch drive applications. It accepts 1/4 inch fasteners and measures 7/8 inches in overall length, making it well suited for confined-space fastener access where a standard-depth socket would not clear surrounding components. The lobular internal opening geometry distributes torque across the fastener flats rather than the corners, reducing the risk of rounding during removal or installation. This socket is sold individually and is a practical addition to any service tech's hand-tool kit.

This socket is used in general mechanical service work across HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and pool equipment installations where 1/4 inch SAE fasteners are encountered. The shallow depth and compact 1/4 inch drive make it appropriate for panel interiors, junction boxes, equipment access covers, and other tight-clearance fastening points common in trade service work. It engages both 6-point and 12-point fasteners, giving the technician flexibility when fastener type is not known in advance.

Key Features

• Lobular opening design transfers torque to fastener flats, reducing corner deformation
• Compatible with both 6-point and 12-point fasteners for versatile field use
• Shallow profile at 7/8 inches overall length for restricted-clearance applications
• 1/4 inch drive keeps the tool setup compact and lightweight
• SAE sizing for standard fractional fasteners

Compatibility

Designed as a 1/4 inch drive, 1/4 inch SAE shallow socket for use with standard ratchets, extensions, and adapters accepting 1/4 inch drive tooling.

Installation Notes

This socket is installed by a qualified technician as part of a standard hand-tool setup requiring no special licensing. Always de-energize electrical equipment and shut off fluid supply before loosening fasteners on live systems. Inspect the socket for cracks or wear before applying torque to critical fasteners. Use the appropriate drive torque for the fastener size and material per job specifications.
