The OEL IT-10309 is a 9mm socket designed for use with a 1/4 inch drive, featuring insulation rated for up to 1,000 VAC and 1,500 VDC maximum exposure. This tool is manufactured in the USA and is part of OEL’s line of insulated hand tools intended for electrical work where proximity to live components is a concern. The construction emphasizes electrical insulation with a double-insulated design and a robust, impact-resistant, flame-retardant build, aligning with industry standards for electrical safety tools.
Key attributes include a 9mm size with 12 points, suitable for standard hex fasteners, and a 1/4 drive compatibility. The tool is tested to meet IEC 60900 and exceeds ASTM 1505 requirements for insulated hand tools, which provides a framework for safe use under prescribed electrical conditions. It also aligns with OSHA requirements (29 CFR Part 1910.331–335 and Subpart S; 29 CFR Part 1910.269 Subpart K) and NFPA 70E for electrical safety in the workplace. These standards-backed features help ensure reliable performance in environments where insulation integrity and resistance to arcing are critical.
Practical considerations for buyers include selecting the correct drive size and bit geometry for your application, and understanding the insulation rating in relation to the voltage levels you encounter. The product is packaged as each unit and is intended for professional use where insulated tools are required to reduce the risk of electrical shock. For maintenance, inspect the tool for any signs of wear or damage that could compromise insulation and replace if integrity is in doubt.
