Williams Comfort Products JHWST-830 Shallow Socket 1/2 Dr

Product Description

The WILLIAMS COMFORT PRODUCTS JHWST-830 is a shallow-profile, 8-point SAE socket designed for use with a 1/2 inch drive. It features a 15/16 inch opening and an overall length of approximately 1 13/16 inches. The SUPERTORQUE lobular internal geometry increases turning power while reducing the risk of deforming fastener heads. This socket is a hand-tool-category item typically used by mechanics, HVAC technicians, plumbers, and other trade professionals who need a reliable shallow socket for confined-space fastener work.

The JHWST-830 is suited for applications where a deep socket would not clear surrounding components. The shallow design allows access to fasteners seated close to a surface. The 8-point configuration allows quick engagement on 4-point square fasteners, making it practical for valve packing nuts, equipment panels, and similar trade applications. Sold individually, it integrates into standard 1/2 inch drive socket sets.

Key Features

• SUPERTORQUE lobular openings increase turning force without rounding fastener corners
• 8-point design for fast engagement on 4-point square-drive fasteners
• Shallow profile for use in tight clearance areas
• 1/2 inch drive compatible with standard ratchets and extensions
• 15/16 inch SAE opening

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or addition to 1/2 inch drive SAE shallow socket sets for use in trade service applications.

Installation Notes

Inspect the fastener head and socket opening before applying torque to confirm proper fit and avoid slippage. Ensure the drive tool is fully seated before applying force. Always use hand tools within their rated load range and avoid using pipe extensions on ratchet handles unless the tool is specifically rated for it.
