Gray Tools T20-I 5/8" X 3/8" Drive 12 Point 1000V Insulated tool storage

SKU CH-RG7S-TDFGH

Insulated 12-point socket with dual-layer orange and yellow insulation tested to ASTM F1505 for 1000 V protection

  • 12-point drive engages fasteners securely
  • Dual-colour insulation shows damage at a glance
  • Rated for 1000 V live-line protection
  • Tested to ASTM F1505 safety standard
  • California Proposition 65 chemical warning applies

Insulated Socket for 5/8 Inch Hex

This 12-point socket fits a 5/8 inch hex fastener and provides a 1000 V insulated barrier for live electrical work. The dual-layer insulation uses an orange outer layer over a yellow inner layer that acts as a visual safety indicator. It is individually tested to meet ASTM F1505 standards for user protection. Professional electricians and maintenance technicians use it where insulated hand tools are required.

Upgrade From Non-Insulated Sockets

Standard chrome or black-oxide sockets offer no voltage protection and must be replaced when working on energised equipment up to 1000 V. The jump is worth it whenever a task requires verified insulation integrity rather than makeshift tape or unrated tools. The two-colour layer system makes wear inspection immediate without guesswork. Buyers who need impact-rated drive compatibility or larger drive sizes will not find them here.

Verify Drive Size and Hex Fit

Confirm that your ratchet or torque wrench accepts a 3/8 inch drive before ordering. Ensure the fastener you are turning is exactly a 5/8 inch hex so the 12-point geometry engages correctly. Check that your safety protocol accepts ASTM F1505 compliance for the voltage class involved. The product carries a California Proposition 65 warning for chemicals known to cause cancer and reproductive harm.

Questions about this item

What drive size does the 5/8" 12-point socket fit?

The socket has a 3/8" drive square, so it fits any standard 3/8" drive ratchet or extension.

How do I verify the insulation is still safe before each use?

Inspect the orange outer layer; if the yellow inner layer is visible, the socket must be removed from service immediately.

When should this insulated socket be replaced?

Replace it if the orange insulation is cracked, the yellow layer shows through, or it fails a dielectric re-test per ASTM F1505.
