The OELIT-10-316 is a high-visibility, insulated socket designed for use with a 1/4 drive and a 1/2 inch size. Built for electrical work, this tool integrates insulation to enhance worker safety when servicing energized equipment, aligning with industry standards and safety requirements for insulated hand tools. Its construction supports reliable performance in environments where contact with live circuits is a possibility, and its American-made origin underscores a commitment to regional manufacturing practices.
Key design attributes include its deep profile, which accommodates applications that require access to recessed fasteners, and a robust insulation system rated to handle voltages up to 1,000 VAC (and up to 1,500 VDC maximum exposure). The tool is tested to meet IEC 60900 and exceeds ASTM 1505 criteria for insulated hand tools, with additional alignment to OSHA 29 CFR Part 1910 and NFPA 70E requirements. The combination of impact resistance and flame retardancy enhances durability in challenging jobsite conditions, while the 12-point geometry provides a versatile grip on fasteners in tight or awkward spaces.
Practical usage scenarios include maintenance, electrical installation, and repair tasks where safeguarding against electrical hazards is a priority. This socket is sized for a 1/2 inch square drive interface and is intended for use with a 1/4 inch drive ratchet or breaker bar in compatible toolsets. Each unit is packaged individually, ready for inclusion in safety-focused tool kits, with the OEL brand and part number OELIT-10-316 clearly identifying the exact insulated component.
