Williams Comfort Products JHWX-1246 Shallow Socket 1 in Drive

Product Description

The WILLIAMS COMFORT PRODUCTS JHWX-1246 is a shallow-pattern impact socket designed for heavy-duty fastener work in professional trade settings. Built with a 1-inch drive and a 1 7/16-inch opening, this SAE socket reaches a 2.75-inch overall length (OAL), making it a compact option where clearance is limited. The lobular internal geometry provides increased turning power while protecting fastener heads from rounding under high torque. Mechanics, millwrights, and industrial maintenance technicians reach for this socket when working on large-fastener assemblies that demand a full 1-inch drive but require a shorter profile than a standard-depth socket.

This socket is suited for use in automotive, heavy equipment, industrial maintenance, and mechanical contracting applications. The shallow depth makes it practical in recessed or tight-access installations where a standard or deep socket would not seat correctly. Designed to engage both 6-point and 12-point fasteners, it handles a broad range of hardware configurations encountered in field and shop environments. It is sold individually and is a direct addition to any 1-inch drive SAE socket set.

Key Features

• Shallow profile at 2.75 inches OAL for use in tight-clearance fastener locations
• 1-inch drive size for high-torque applications requiring large drive tools
• 1 7/16-inch SAE opening for correct fitment on imperial fasteners
• Lobular internal openings increase turning power without deforming fastener corners
• Compatible with both 6-point and 12-point fastener heads

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard addition for 1-inch drive SAE shallow socket sets used in industrial, heavy equipment, and mechanical trade applications.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a 1-inch drive ratchet, breaker bar, or torque wrench. Always ensure the socket is fully seated on the fastener before applying torque. Inspect the socket for cracks or wear before each use, particularly in high-cycle impact applications. Follow applicable workplace safety and tool inspection protocols when working with large-drive hand tools.
