9 mm 1000 V insulated socket

The Gray Tools M609-I is a 9 mm, 1/4-inch drive socket with a 6-point opening. Each piece is individually insulated and tested to ASTM F1505 standards for protection up to 1000 V. It is intended for technicians who work on live or potentially energised low-voltage equipment.

Dual-layer insulation fits standard 1/4" drive tools

An orange outer insulation layer covers a yellow inner layer that acts as a visual safety indicator; damage to the orange layer reveals the yellow beneath. The socket accepts any standard 1/4-inch drive ratchet or extension, so it integrates into existing tool sets without proprietary adapters.

Insulation retains dielectric rating under

The moulded insulation is designed to maintain its 1000 V rating during sustained contact with energised parts, not just during brief test bursts. Regular visual checks of the two-colour layers confirm the barrier remains intact before each job.

Questions about this item

How long does the 1000 V insulation rating last under daily use?

Each socket is individually tested to ASTM F1505, so the 1000 V rating holds for the life of the tool unless the orange or yellow insulation layers are damaged.

Does the insulated coating trap heat or make the socket hot during extended jobs?

The thin orange and yellow layers add negligible thermal mass, so the socket runs at the same temperature as a standard chrome socket.

What drive tools do I need to use this 9 mm socket?

A 1/4" drive ratchet, breaker bar or torque wrench with a 6-point receiver will engage the socket correctly.
