Williams Comfort Products JHWST-1246 Shallow Socket Sae

Product Description

The WILLIAMS COMFORT PRODUCTS JHWST-1246 is a shallow-profile SAE socket designed for use with a 1/2 inch drive ratchet or breaker bar. Built with SUPERTORQUE lobular openings, this socket transfers greater turning force to the fastener head while reducing the risk of rounding or deforming the fastener. It accepts both 6-point and 12-point fasteners, making it versatile across common mechanical and structural applications. The overall length is 2.25 inches, and the socket fits a 1 7/16 inch fastener. At 1.02 pounds, the construction is solid and suited for repeated professional use in maintenance and assembly work.

This socket is suited for mechanical, industrial, and general trade applications where a shallow-profile tool is needed due to limited clearance around the fastener. The 1/2 inch drive interface makes it compatible with standard-size ratchets, torque wrenches, and impact-rated extensions commonly found in professional tool inventories. Typical use cases include structural bolting, equipment maintenance, and service work where full-depth sockets cannot be seated properly.

Key Features

• SUPERTORQUE lobular openings provide increased turning power while protecting fastener heads from deformation
• Shallow profile allows use in tight or low-clearance installations
• Compatible with both 6-point and 12-point fasteners for broader application coverage
• 1/2 inch drive fits standard ratchets, torque wrenches, and extension bars
• SAE sizing at 1 7/16 inch for use with imperial fasteners

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit shallow socket for use with 1/2 inch drive tools on 1 7/16 inch SAE fasteners in mechanical and industrial service applications.

Installation Notes

This socket is installed and removed by mechanics and maintenance technicians using standard 1/2 inch drive hand tools or powered impact equipment rated for the drive size. Before beginning any fastener work, ensure the equipment or assembly being serviced is de-energized, depressurized, or otherwise made safe per applicable job-site procedures. Inspect the socket for cracks or wear before each use and replace any damaged tooling promptly.
