The OELIT-38-106 is a 6mm socket designed for use with a 3/8 inch drive, offering insulated performance for electrical environments. This standard socket is built to support safe work practices when handling energized equipment by providing insulation up to 1,000 volts AC and up to 1,500 volts DC maximum exposure, aligning with common PPE standards for electrical tools. The tool is described as double insulated with a robust construction to resist impact and flame exposure, contributing to dependable service in maintenance and repair tasks where electrical risks exist.
In terms of construction and compliance, the socket carries features that meet or exceed recognized safety benchmarks for insulated hand tools, including IEC 60900 and NFPA 70E considerations. It also notes support for industry practices under OSHA 29 CFR Part 1910.331-335 and 1910.269 subpart K, indicating its intended use within regulated electrical and utility work environments. The 6mm size and 12-point design specify compatibility with appropriate fasteners, while the 3/8 drive ensures a suitable interface with common socket wrenches. The product is manufactured in the USA by OEL, and the part number is kept consistent with the supplier’s records to facilitate accurate ordering and inventory management.
Practical use of this insulated socket includes electrical maintenance, panel work, and general electrical apparatus servicing where exposure to live circuits is possible. When selecting this tool, consider the maximum exposure rating to ensure it matches the voltage levels encountered on site. The packaging for this item is listed as per-unit, enabling straightforward stocking and replacement in professional tool kits and service carts. Proper maintenance and inspection are advised to verify insulation integrity and drive compatibility before use in high-risk environments.
