Williams Comfort Products JHWM-1212 Shallow Socket Sae

Product Description

The WILLIAMS COMFORT PRODUCTS JHWM-1212 is a shallow SAE socket designed for fast, secure fastener engagement in tight spaces. Built on a 1/4 inch drive, it fits a 3/8 inch fastener head and measures 7/8 inch overall length. The lobular internal opening profile — a SUPERTORQUE design — grips the flat faces of a fastener rather than the corners, reducing rounding on worn or corroded hardware. This socket is sold as an individual unit and is appropriate for use by HVAC technicians, plumbers, electricians, and mechanical contractors working in confined service areas.

This shallow socket is intended for applications where a standard-depth socket would contact surrounding components or enclosures before fully seating on the fastener. Common install scenarios include equipment panels, junction boxes, valve packing nuts, and fasteners recessed in shallow counterbores. The 1/4 inch drive makes it compatible with compact ratchets and power screwdriver adapters used in tight access situations typical of residential and light commercial mechanical systems.

Installation Notes

This socket is installed by any trade professional using hand or power-drive tools on 1/4 inch drive ratchets or adapters. Confirm the fastener size before applying torque to avoid seat damage. Do not use impact drivers with this drive size unless the socket is rated for impact use. Always de-energize or shut off the relevant system before accessing fasteners on live mechanical or electrical equipment.
