The OEL IT-11-708 is a high-demand insulated hex bit socket designed for use with 3/8 drive systems and 1/8" hex bits. Its insulation and build support safe operation under electrical exposure scenarios, aligning with common electrical safety practices in maintenance and electrical work. The tool is specified as insulated up to 1000V, making it suitable for use in environments where incidental contact with live components may occur, while maintaining compatibility with standard drive sizes and bit configurations found in many hand tool sets.
Constructed for reliability in demanding settings, this socket is described as double insulated and manufactured in the USA, with a lifetime warranty referenced by the supplier. It meets IEC 60900 standards for insulated hand tools and is noted to exceed several established industry standards for insulated hand tools, which helps justify its use in tasks that require additional protection against electrical hazards. The product is tested for AC voltage exposure up to 10,000V and rated for 1,000VAC and 1,500VDC maximum exposure, with a focus on impact resistance and flame retardancy. These attributes are important for understanding both the safety margins and the practical durability of the tool during professional use.
Typical applications include electrical maintenance, panel work, and other tasks where rapid fastening or loosening is required in proximity to energized components. Practically, users should verify system compatibility: this is a 3/8" drive socket paired with a 1/8" hex bit size, and the package unit is listed as "Each". When selecting this tool, consider the working voltage environment, the need for compatible drive accessories, and the potential benefits of a tool designed to meet multiple safety standards relevant to insulated hand tools and electrical safety programs.
