The OELIT-10-318 is a 9/16" deep, 1/4" drive socket designed for use with insulated hand tools in electrical work. It is manufactured by OEL under the OEL brand and carries insulation intended to support safe handling around live equipment, with a focus on high-voltage environments. The tool’s construction is described as double insulated with an emphasis on reliability, and it is backed by a lifetime warranty according to the manufacturer description.
This socket is tested for electrical protection capabilities and is rated to withstand up to 10,000 VAC and a maximum exposure of 1,000 VAC/1,500 VDC. The combination of its nominal size, drive configuration, and insulation rating makes it suitable for use in job tasks that involve energized circuits or equipment where insulating hand tools are appropriate and required by safety programs. The product information notes conformance to relevant standards and safety practices, including IEC 60900 for insulated hand tools and guidance aligned with NFPA 70E and OSHA electrical safety requirements. The 12-point design (as indicated by the specification) and deep profile offer engagement for fastening tasks where access is limited and there is a need for a secure fit with a 1/4" drive system.
This socket is intended for professional use in electrical and maintenance settings, where workers rely on compatible, insulated tools to reduce the risk of conduction through metal fasteners during service. Users should verify compatibility with their existing tool fleet and ensure proper inspection and maintenance as part of the safety program. The packaging is listed as “Each,” indicating individual sale, and the part number OELIT-10-318 should be used to confirm the exact item in procurement records.
