Williams Comfort Products JHWX-1252 Shallow Socket

Product Description

The WILLIAMS COMFORT PRODUCTS JHWX-1252 is a shallow-pattern impact socket designed for heavy-duty fastener work requiring high torque output without fastener damage. Built on a 1 inch drive, it accepts 1 5/8 inch fasteners and measures 2.875 inches in overall length. The lobular internal opening geometry — marketed as SUPERTORQUE — distributes torque load across the flat faces of the fastener rather than the corners, reducing fastener deformation under load. This socket is an SAE-size tool suited for industrial, mechanical, and maintenance trades where a standard deep socket would be obstructed by limited clearance.

This shallow socket is appropriate for use in tight-clearance applications common in industrial maintenance, heavy equipment service, and mechanical contracting. The 1 inch drive platform is standard in high-torque professional settings. Its shallow profile allows engagement where deeper sockets would contact surrounding structure or adjacent components. Both 6-point and 12-point fasteners are compatible with this socket, giving the technician flexibility across different fastener head types encountered on the job.

Key Features

• Shallow socket profile for use in limited-clearance fastener locations
• 1 inch square drive compatible with standard industrial-grade drive tools
• 1 5/8 inch SAE fastener size
• Lobular opening geometry reduces corner loading and limits fastener deformation under high torque
• Compatible with both 6-point and 12-point fastener heads
• 2.875 inch overall length for compact reach

Compatibility

Designed as a 1 inch drive shallow socket for use with 1 5/8 inch SAE fasteners on both 6-point and 12-point fastener heads in industrial and heavy mechanical service applications.

Installation Notes

Installation and removal of fasteners with this socket should be performed by qualified mechanical or maintenance tradespeople using a calibrated torque wrench or impact driver rated for the 1 inch drive platform. Confirm the socket is fully seated on the fastener before applying torque to prevent slippage or tool ejection under load. Inspect the socket for cracks, deformation, or wear before each use, and remove from service if any damage is observed.
