MIDWEST FASTENER CORP 34263 1" Ceramic Medium Socket Extender 2PK

SKU CH-SE8N-FDH0M

Two ceramic medium socket extenders add length for recessed fixtures and meet Proposition 65 disclosure requirements

  • Extends lamp reach with 1 inch ceramic spacer
  • Two-pack supplies spare extender for multiple fixtures
  • Ceramic body resists heat from high-wattage bulbs
  • Medium base fits standard E26 household sockets
  • California Proposition 65 warning included for chemical safety

Socket Extender Pair

This two-pack of ceramic medium-base socket extenders adds length between a fixture and a bulb. They suit maintenance crews, electricians and DIYers who need to reach deeper or recessed lamp holders without rewiring. The ceramic body resists heat from incandescent or LED lamps in standard E26 sockets. Buyers who need a different base type or a single unit should look elsewhere.

Heat And Power Behaviour

The ceramic insulator handles normal lamp temperatures without deforming or discolouring. No fan or active cooling is present, so operation is silent. Power draw depends entirely on the installed bulb; the extender itself adds no measurable consumption. No thermal ratings or wattage limits are supplied by the manufacturer.

Prop 65 Notice Included

Each package carries the California Proposition 65 warning for chemicals linked to cancer and reproductive harm. The notice is a regulatory label, not an accessory, and does not change installation steps. No software, adapters or mounting hardware are bundled with the extenders.

Questions about this item

How do I install the ceramic medium socket extender and what step is commonly missed?

Screw the extender into the existing medium-base socket until the ceramic body seats fully, then install the bulb; the step often missed is ensuring the extender is tightened enough to maintain electrical contact without cross-threading the porcelain.

What maintenance or replacement will the 1-inch ceramic medium socket extender need over time?

Inspect the ceramic for hairline cracks or discolouration after repeated bulb changes; replace the extender if the glazing is damaged or the centre contact no longer springs back firmly.

What limit appears first when the extender is used continuously with a high-wattage bulb?

The ceramic body reaches its thermal saturation point before the base threads loosen, so sustained high heat is the first practical limit.
