Insulated Socket for 1000 V Work
The Gray Tools M608-I is an 8 mm, 1/4-inch drive socket built for electrical tasks where live circuits may be present. It suits electricians and maintenance technicians who need hand-tool access to fasteners inside panels or equipment rated up to 1000 V.
Dual-Layer Insulation and 6-Point Drive
An orange outer insulation layer covers a yellow inner layer that acts as a visual wear indicator; if yellow shows, the socket must be replaced. Each piece is individually tested to ASTM F1505, and the 6-point drive geometry grips hex flats securely to reduce rounding.
Single-Size Limitation and Prop 65 Notice
This socket fits only 8 mm fasteners, so jobs requiring other sizes demand additional pieces. California Proposition 65 warnings apply because the product contains chemicals identified by the state as causing cancer and reproductive harm.

Questions about this item
What does the 1000 V rating and ASTM F1505 testing mean for daily use?
The socket is individually insulated and tested to ASTM F1505, providing user protection up to 1000 V. An orange top insulation layer and a yellow indicator layer show damage at a glance.
What drive size and hex opening does this socket need to fit?
It has a 1/4 inch drive and an 8 mm 6-point hex opening, so it fits a standard 1/4 inch ratchet and 8 mm fasteners.
How is the insulation installed and what mistake should I avoid?
The insulation is factory-bonded in two layers; do not remove or modify either layer, and inspect the yellow indicator before each use to confirm the insulation is intact.
