Williams Comfort Products JHWSTM-1217 Shallow Socket 17MM

Product Description

The WILLIAMS COMFORT PRODUCTS JHWSTM-1217 is a shallow-profile metric socket designed for 1/2 inch drive tools. Built with lobular opening geometry, it delivers increased torque transfer while reducing the risk of rounding or deforming fastener heads. The overall length is 1.5 inches, making it suitable for fastening tasks in tight clearance areas. This socket is sold individually and is intended for use by professional mechanics, maintenance technicians, and tradespeople who work with metric fasteners on a regular basis.

This socket is used in applications where a standard-depth socket would interfere with surrounding components or where access is restricted. The 17 MM size and 1/2 inch drive configuration make it a practical choice for automotive, industrial, and mechanical maintenance work. The shallow profile reduces the reach required into a fastener pocket, improving control during installation and removal.

Key Features

• Lobular opening design increases turning power without deforming 6-point or 12-point fastener heads
• Engineered for quick engagement on both 6 and 12 point fasteners
• Shallow profile suits confined spaces with limited vertical clearance
• 1/2 inch drive accepts standard 1/2 inch ratchets, breaker bars, and torque wrenches
• 17 MM metric sizing for common metric fastener applications

Compatibility

Designed as a direct-fit shallow metric socket for use with standard 1/2 inch square drive ratchets, extensions, and torque wrenches.

Installation Notes

Installation and removal should be performed by a qualified technician using a calibrated torque wrench where torque specifications are required. Ensure the socket is fully seated on the fastener before applying force to prevent slippage. Do not use impact tools unless the socket is rated for impact service. Inspect the socket for wear or cracking before each use.
