Williams Comfort Products JHWST-828 Shallow Socket 7/8 in

Product Description

The WILLIAMS COMFORT PRODUCTS JHWST-828 is a shallow-pattern SAE socket designed for use with a 1/2 inch drive. It fits 7/8 inch fasteners and features an 8-point lobular opening that engages 4-point fasteners quickly and with reduced risk of fastener damage. The overall assembled length is 1.75 inches, making it well-suited for fastener access in confined spaces. This socket is built for professional use and is commonly installed or used by HVAC technicians, plumbers, electricians, and general mechanical trades requiring reliable hand-tool performance.

The JHWST-828 is a general-purpose shallow socket appropriate for residential and light commercial maintenance applications. Its compact profile works in tight clearance areas where deep sockets cannot seat properly. The SAE sizing targets standard fasteners found on equipment panels, access covers, and mechanical assemblies common across trade service work. It is sold as a single unit and is suitable for both field service kits and shop tool inventories.
