OEL IT-11261 9/16" Socket, 3/8 Drive, Deep, Insulated 1000V

The OEL IT-11261 is a 9/16 inch socket designed for use with a 3/8 inch drive. It is a deep socket intended for electrical maintenance contexts, and it carries insulation rated for 1000V, making it suitable for tasks that require dielectric protection with hand tools in compliance-oriented environments.

Construction highlights include its insulated construction and testing to electrical safety standards, with a rating for 1000VAC and 1500VDC maximum exposure. The tool is positioned as impact resistant and flame retardant, aligning with expectations for insulated hand tools used near energized equipment. This socket is manufactured in the USA and comes with a double-insulated design and a lifetime warranty, reflecting a focus on durability and long-term performance within appropriate electrical safety programs.

In practice, this socket supports maintenance and assembly tasks involving electrical apparatus where a 3/8 drive is standard and a deep reach is beneficial for accessing fasteners in constrained spaces. It is intended to meet relevant standards cited in electrical safety guidelines and supports compatibility with standard 3/8 drive ratchets or impact drivers that accommodate deep sockets. The 9/16 inch size and 12-point configuration provide a balance of grip and access for specific fastener profiles, while the insulation and arc rating are important considerations when working near exposed conductors. As with any insulated tool, verify compatibility with your specific equipment and ensure usage within the approved voltage and duty parameters of your safety program.
