3/16" 12 Point Insulated Socket
This 3/16 inch 12 point socket provides insulated protection for live electrical work up to 1000 V. It features an orange outer insulation layer and a yellow inner layer that acts as a visual safety indicator. Each piece is individually tested to ASTM F1505 standards. The tool suits electricians and maintenance technicians who require certified insulation.
Upgrade From Non-Insulated Sockets
This socket replaces standard non-insulated sockets when working on energised equipment up to 1000 V. The dual-layer insulation system gives a clear visual warning if the outer layer is damaged. The jump is worth it whenever regulatory or site safety rules mandate ASTM F1505 compliant tooling for the voltage present.
Sustained Load Behaviour
Under continuous use the insulation retains its dielectric rating provided the yellow indicator layer remains hidden. The orange and yellow layers resist abrasion and chemical exposure typical in industrial environments. Regular visual inspection confirms the insulation integrity before each use on live circuits.

Questions about this item
What size socket or bit does the 3/16" 12-point opening accept?
The 12-point, 3/16" hex opening fits fasteners of that exact size and is designed for 1/4" drive tools.
How do I verify the insulation is still safe before each use?
Inspect the orange outer layer; if the yellow inner layer is visible through cuts or wear, the tool no longer meets the 1000 V rating and must be replaced.
When should this insulated socket be replaced due to wear?
Replace it immediately once the yellow safety layer shows through the orange insulation, or if the 12-point profile becomes rounded enough to slip on fasteners.
