The OEL IT-11266 is a deep 7/8-inch socket designed for use with a 3/8-inch drive, offering insulated performance for high-voltage applications. The tool places primary emphasis on electrical safety by combining a robust metal socket with insulation that supports work in energized environments. This piece is identified as Made in the USA and carries a double-insulated construction approach intended to reduce exposure to live electrical components during use.
Key distinguishing features include compliance-oriented performance: it meets the IEC 60900 standard for insulated hand tools and exceeds ASTM 1505 requirements, providing assurance for operations that involve electrical safety protocols. It is tested to withstand up to 10,000 VAC and is rated for a maximum exposure of 1,000 VAC or 1,500 VDC, which informs the level of voltage protection expected in practical tasks. The insulation material is described as impact resistant and flame retardant, attributes that support durability in field conditions where tools may encounter accidental contact with hot or arcing sources. The part is listed with 7/8-inch size, 12-point configuration, and a 3/8 drive length, which helps determine compatibility with fasteners and drive systems common in electrical maintenance work.
Practical use of this socket centers on maintenance, repair, and installation tasks within electrical and utility environments that require tools meeting insulated-hand-tool standards. When selecting this item, ensure your socket size and drive match the fasteners you intend to work with, and verify compatibility with your torque and impact requirements. Packaging is specified as a single per-item unit, aligning with typical field-tool inventories. For ongoing safety and performance, store and inspect insulation integrity regularly and replace if any cracking or heat damage is observed.
