The OEL IT-38-107 is a 7mm socket designed for use with a 3/8 inch drive, offering insulated performance for electrical tasking. This hand tool component is manufactured to support working near energized equipment, aligning with common industry standards for insulated hand tools and electrical safety practices. The tool’s insulation credentials are reinforced by its stated ratings and documentation, including 1000 VAC and 1500 VDC maximum exposure, which are critical for evaluating protection during high-voltage maintenance work. The product is described as double insulated and is wrapped by OEL’s warranty approach, with a focus on reliability in electrical environments where voltage exposure is a consideration.
Supported by the stated standards, the 7mm socket is intended for use in tasks where a robust, grounded interface is required between tools and fasteners, particularly in service and maintenance scenarios that intersect with electrical systems. The insulation and impact-resistant, flame-retardant properties contribute to safer operation under typical workshop and field conditions, provided proper PPE and electrical safety protocols are observed. Practical use considerations include selecting the 3/8 drive size for compatible impact or hand tools and ensuring the provided socket size matches the fastener being used.
This item is packaged as a single unit and carries the manufacturer part number OELIT-38-107, with the stated insulation claims aimed at professionals who work near electrical sources. Users should verify sizing (7mm) and drive compatibility (3/8 inch) for their particular toolset and follow applicable safety standards and facility procedures when performing energized work.
