  • Nonsparking aluminium bronze for safe use in hazardous areas

Nonsparking 1/2 in Drive Socket

This nonsparking socket fits a 1/2 in drive and a 9/16 in SAE fastener. The 6-point aluminum bronze design provides grip on standard hex heads. It is intended for hand use in environments where sparking tools are unsafe.

FM Approved and ASTM A342 Standards

The tool meets FM Approved requirements and conforms to ASTM A342. It is not impact rated, so it must be used with hand force only. The unfinished aluminum bronze surface is standard for this safety class.

Deep Well for Threaded Fasteners

The deep well clears bolt threads and studs that a shallow socket cannot reach. It handles common maintenance tasks on 9/16 in hardware. The aluminum bronze construction limits torque compared to steel sockets.

Questions about this item

Which socket size and drive combination should I choose for my fastener?

The socket is a 9/16 inch SAE size with a 1/2 inch drive, so it fits that specific fastener and ratchet combination.

What does the deep 6-point design mean when I use it on a bolt?

The deep body reaches further onto the bolt shank while the six points grip the flats securely, reducing the chance of rounding.

How does the FM Approved and ASTM A342 rating affect use in hazardous areas?

Those standards confirm the aluminum bronze construction is nonsparking and suitable for environments where ignition risk must be avoided.
