Williams Comfort Products JHWX-1288 Shallow Socket Sae

Product Description

The WILLIAMS COMFORT PRODUCTS JHWX-1288 is a shallow-pattern impact socket designed for high-torque fastener work in demanding trade environments. Built on a 1-inch drive, this socket features a 2 3/4-inch opening and a 4 1/2-inch overall length, making it suited for large-fastener applications where clearance is limited. The lobular internal profile distributes torque across the flat faces of the fastener rather than the corners, reducing the risk of rounding under load. Electricians, pipefitters, HVAC installers, and mechanical contractors reach for sockets like this when working with large structural or equipment-mounting fasteners.

This socket fits into heavy-duty hand tool use across commercial and industrial job sites. The shallow profile keeps the working height low when fastener access is tight against a surface. It is rated for SAE sizing, making it compatible with standard inch-measurement hardware common in domestic equipment installations. The 1-inch drive pairs with heavy-duty impact wrenches and breaker bars used in equipment rigging, large-diameter pipe flange work, and structural assembly.

Key Features

• Lobular opening profile increases turning power and reduces fastener deformation under load
• Designed to engage both 6-point and 12-point fasteners quickly and securely
• Shallow socket profile for use in tight-clearance applications
• 1-inch drive size rated for heavy-duty impact and breaker bar use
• SAE sizing for standard inch-measurement hardware
• 2 3/4-inch opening with 4 1/2-inch overall length

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement shallow socket compatible with 1-inch drive impact wrenches and breaker bars used on SAE-standard 6-point and 12-point fasteners in heavy trade and industrial applications.

Installation Notes

Install and remove this socket using a 1-inch drive impact wrench or breaker bar rated for the torque requirements of the fastener being serviced. Ensure the socket is fully seated on the fastener before applying torque to prevent slippage or rounding. Inspect the socket and drive tool for cracks or wear before each use, and replace any damaged components immediately. Always de-energize and lock out equipment before performing fastener work on electrical or mechanical systems.
