Insulated 12-Point Socket
The Gray Tools V112-I is a 3/8-inch drive socket with a 12-point opening and 1/4-inch hex size. It features dual-layer insulation with an orange top layer and a yellow indicator layer beneath. The tool provides user protection for up to 1000 V and is individually tested to ASTM F1505 standards. It is designed for professional electrical work requiring insulated hand tools.
Electrical Maintenance Professionals
This socket suits electricians and technicians performing live-line maintenance up to 1000 V where insulated tooling is mandated. The visual safety indicator allows quick verification of insulation integrity before each use. It is not intended for general mechanical fastening where voltage exposure is absent. Buyers needing impact-rated drive tools should look elsewhere.
Sustained High-Voltage Use
Under continuous electrical exposure the dual-layer construction maintains its dielectric barrier while the yellow layer reveals any abrasion or wear that would compromise safety. The ASTM F1505 testing confirms performance for prolonged contact rather than brief incidental touch. The insulation remains effective during extended jobs on energised equipment. Regular visual inspection of the yellow layer ensures ongoing protection.

Questions about this item
What drive size must my ratchet have to use this 3/8" hex socket?
A 3/8 inch drive ratchet is required; the socket will not fit a 1/4 inch or 1/2 inch drive.
Will the 12-point opening engage the hex bolts on my older equipment?
Yes, the 12-point geometry fits standard hex fasteners and allows engagement at smaller swing angles.
How do I confirm the insulation is still intact before each job?
Check that the outer orange layer shows no cuts and the inner yellow indicator layer is not visible.
