9 mm 1000 V Insulated Socket
The Gray Tools 9 mm socket uses a 3/8 inch drive and a 12 point profile to fit standard fasteners. An orange outer insulation layer covers a yellow inner layer that acts as a visual safety indicator. Each piece is individually tested to ASTM F1505 standards for protection up to 1000 V.
Electricians and High-Voltage Technicians
This socket suits professionals working on live equipment rated up to 1000 V who need insulated hand tools with visible wear detection. It is not for mechanics who only service de-energised machinery and have no requirement for dielectric testing. Buyers needing impact-rated or non-insulated sockets should look at other tool ranges.
ASTM F1505 Tested 1000 V Rating
The single specification that decides fit is the ASTM F1505 certification confirming 1000 V insulation performance. Without this tested rating the socket cannot be used on energised systems. Verify that your workplace safety procedures require this exact standard before purchase.

Questions about this item
What drive size is required to use this 9 mm insulated socket?
The socket has a 3/8" drive opening, so a 3/8" drive ratchet or breaker bar is needed.
Can this 12-point insulated socket be used with a standard 6-point fastener?
Yes, the 12-point drive engages standard 6-point hex fasteners, though a matching 12-point fastener gives more contact points.
How do I confirm the insulation is intact before working near live circuits?
Inspect the two-colour layers; the orange outer layer and yellow inner indicator should show no cracks, cuts or yellow exposure.
