13mm 1/2" Drive 12 Point 1000V Insulated Socket
This insulated socket is built for electricians and technicians who work on live low-voltage equipment up to 1000 V. The orange and yellow dual-layer insulation provides a clear visual safety indicator during use. It suits professional maintenance and repair tasks where electrical protection is required.
13mm hex size
The 13mm hex opening is the single specification that determines fit on the fastener you are turning. A mismatched size will not engage correctly and can damage both the socket and the hardware. Verify the fastener measurement before selecting this tool.
ASTM F1505 tested insulation
Each socket is individually tested to ASTM F1505 standards, confirming the insulation withstands the rated voltage. The yellow inner layer reveals damage to the outer orange layer, signalling when the tool must be replaced. This testing and indication system supports workplace safety compliance.

Questions about this item
How does the 13 mm hex size match the fasteners I work on?
The socket fits 13 mm nuts and bolts, a common size on electrical panels and automotive components.
What does the 12-point drive do for me compared with a 6-point?
A 12-point drive engages the fastener at twice as many angles, letting you seat the socket in tighter spaces where swing room is limited.
What clearance do I need for the insulated layers on this socket?
The orange outer and yellow inner insulation add modest thickness, so allow a few extra millimetres of headroom over a bare socket when working in recessed terminals.
