The OEL IT-11-711 is a 3/16" hex bit socket designed for use with a 3/8" drive, featuring insulation rated for up to 1000V. This standard-length socket is part of OEL's insulated hand tools line and is manufactured in the USA. The tool combines a conventional hex bit socket form with electrical insulation designed to reduce the risk of arc-flash exposure when working near energized equipment, aligning with recognized standards for insulated hand tools.
The device is described as double insulated with an emphasis on safety performance, including being tested to 10,000 VAC and rated for 1,000 VAC / 1500 VDC maximum exposure. It also carries classifications and claims related to IEC 60900 and NFPA 70E requirements, and notes compatibility with OSHA-related electrical safety guidelines. In practical terms, this means the socket is intended for use in electrical maintenance scenarios where a standard 3/8" drive hex bit socket is needed while maintaining a measured level of insulation protection. The combination of its 3/16" size and 3/8" drive makes it suitable for smaller fastener applications commonly found in electrical assemblies and related equipment.
As with insulated tools, users should verify tool compatibility with their specific application, confirm that the insulation is intact, and follow employer safety protocols and applicable electrical safety standards. The package is listed as each, reflecting single-unit packaging appropriate for individual tool users or shop inventories. The product name, part number, and the insulation rating should be used to verify fit with your existing toolset and to ensure proper compliance with site safety requirements.
