Williams Comfort Products JHWST-640 Shallow Socket

Product Description

The WILLIAMS COMFORT PRODUCTS JHWST-640 is a shallow-profile socket designed for use with 1/2 inch drive tools on SAE fasteners. Built to a 1-1/4 inch opening size with an overall length of 1.875 inches, this socket fits into tight spaces where standard-depth sockets cannot reach. The SUPERTORQUE lobular opening profile transfers torque to the flat faces of the fastener rather than the corners, reducing the risk of rounding under load. Mechanics, maintenance technicians, and trade professionals working in confined assemblies will find this socket a reliable addition to their socket set.

This socket is suited for use in residential and commercial maintenance applications where 6-point SAE fasteners are the standard. The shallow profile is particularly useful when working around obstructions or in recessed fastener pockets where a deep socket would bottom out or fail to seat. It is sold individually and is compatible with any 1/2 inch drive ratchet, breaker bar, or torque wrench.

Installation Notes

This socket is installed and removed by hand onto any compliant 1/2 inch square drive tool. Ensure the socket is fully seated on the fastener before applying torque to prevent slippage. Always verify the fastener size matches the socket opening before use. Follow applicable workplace safety and equipment maintenance guidelines when working on pressurized or energized systems.
