The OEL IT-11262 is a 5/8 inch socket designed for use with a 3/8 inch drive, featuring a deep socket profile and insulated construction rated for 1000V. Manufactured in the USA by OEL, this tool is built to help technicians work with electrical systems while reducing exposure to live components. The insulation and material composition are intended to meet established standards for insulated hand tools and to withstand the demands of professional electrical work. The combination of a 12-point (12-point) drive interface and a deep reach makes it suitable for accessing fasteners in recessed or hard-to-reach locations, where a standard socket may not provide sufficient clearance or engagement depth.
Longer reach and insulation are key benefits in environments where electrical safety is a priority. The socket is tested for high-voltage exposure, rated for 1000 VAC and 1500 VDC maximum exposure, and is described as impact resistant and flame retardant. These attributes support use in professional settings that require insulation performance in addition to mechanical reliability. While the exact materials are not detailed here, the specification emphasizes electrical safety credentials and durability relevant to electricians and maintenance personnel working on energized circuits or in proximity to live components.
Users should verify compatibility with their tooling and the specific fastener sizes encountered in their applications. The device is listed with a 5/8 inch size, 12-point geometry, and a 3/8 inch drive, with a compact length suitable for accessing confined spaces. Packaging is noted as per-item, and as with any insulated hand tool, inspection for wear, cracking, or insulation degradation is advised to ensure ongoing protection during use.
