Williams JHW4-648 Shallow Impact Socket 1/2 in Drive 1-1/2 in

Product Description

The WILLIAMS COMFORT PRODUCTS JHW4-648 is a 1/2 inch drive, shallow impact socket designed for use with pneumatic and electric impact wrenches in trade and industrial applications. Built to SAE sizing at 1-1/2 inch, it features a 2 inch overall length profile suited for tight-clearance fastener work. The socket uses lobular internal geometry to deliver greater turning power while protecting fastener heads from rounding. Specially heat treated for impact service, this socket is built for repeated heavy-use cycles on the job site or in the shop. Electricians, millwrights, pipefitters, and general mechanical contractors reach for this tool when working with large-format fasteners in confined spaces.

The JHW4-648 fits standard 1/2 inch drive impact wrenches and ratchets. Its shallow profile makes it the right choice when socket depth is limited by surrounding structure, fastener protrusion, or panel clearance. The SAE 1-1/2 inch size covers a wide range of heavy mechanical fasteners found in HVAC equipment mounting, structural connections, pipe flange work, and electrical panel installations. Suitable for both shop bench work and field service applications.

Key Features

• SUPERTORQUE lobular openings increase turning power without deforming fastener flats
• Designed for maximum engagement on 6-point fasteners
• Compatible with pneumatic and electric impact wrenches
• Shallow profile allows use in tight-clearance installations
• Specially heat treated for impact use to provide long service life and durability

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard service socket for 1/2 inch drive impact wrenches and ratchets requiring a 1-1/2 inch SAE shallow socket.

Installation Notes

Install and remove using a 1/2 inch drive impact wrench or breaker bar. Always verify the socket is fully seated on the fastener before applying torque to avoid slippage or fastener damage. Inspect the socket for cracks or wear before each use, particularly after heavy impact cycles. De-energize or lock out equipment before performing any fastener service on live mechanical or electrical assemblies.
