The OEL IT-11216 is a 7/8-inch insulated socket designed for 3/8-inch drive, providing a standard profile for use with energized electrical work. Built to support safe handling in environments with electrical exposure, this tool is constructed to meet and exceed recognized insulation standards and is suitable for tasks where safeguarding against electrical shock is a concern. The component is offered with the assurance of being manufactured in the USA, aligning with industry expectations for durable, safety-focused hand tools used by electrical and utility personnel.
Key features highlighted in the product data include compliance with IEC 60900 (Insulated Hand Tools) and surpassing ASTM 1505 requirements, alongside alignment with OSHA and NFPA 70E standards relevant to electrical work practices. The tool is tested for dielectric performance, with ratings up to 10,000 VAC and a maximum exposure of 1,000 VAC or 1,500 VDC. In addition, it is described as impact resistant and flame retardant, which supports reliability in non-ideal field conditions and adds a level of protection during use and handling.
Practically, this socket is intended for tasks that require an insulated interface while using a 3/8-inch drive. The specified size is 7/8 inch with a 12-point configuration, and it is designed for use as part of insulated hand tools sets or in individual applications where voltage exposure is a consideration. The packaging is listed as single units (each), and the product carries a lifetime warranty according to the manufacturer’s description, underscoring a long-term support expectation for field operators. Users should verify compatibility with their existing tool assortments and ensure proper inspection for insulation integrity before use.
