The OEL IT-11-310 is a deep, 5/16-inch socket designed for use with a 3/8-inch drive, engineered to deliver insulated performance for electrical maintenance and other high-voltage applications. This tool is built to help technicians work on energized systems with a focus on safety and reliability, aligning with common industry practices for insulated hand tools.
Construction and features are oriented toward electrical environments: it is rated for insulation up to 1,000 VAC and 1,500 VDC, and has passed standards testing for insulated hand tools. The socket is described as double insulated and is intended to meet or exceed relevant safety standards, including IEC 60900 and NFPA 70E considerations, while also supporting OSHA-related requirements. The design emphasizes impact resistance and flame retardance to withstand the challenges of demanding electrical work.
Typical use scenarios include servicing equipment where a non-conductive option is preferred for safety while handling fasteners in electrical panels or energized circuits. Practically, users should confirm drive compatibility (3/8 in) and ensure the 5/16 in socket size matches the fasteners in use. The packaging indicates per-item availability, and as a manufactured part, it carries the OEL part number OELIT-11-310. While the description notes the tool is made in the USA and comes with durable insulation, buyers should verify any site-specific requirements and review maintenance recommendations from the manufacturer for long-term performance.
