3/16 Inch Insulated Socket
The Wiha Tools 3/16 inch insulated socket fits a 1/4 inch drive and meets ASTM F1505, CSA, EN/IEC 60900, NFPA70E and VDE standards. It is designed for professionals who work on live electrical systems up to the rated voltage. The 6-point alloy steel construction engages fastener flats to reduce rounding.
Standards-Limited Application
The certifications cover insulated hand tools for work on energised parts, not impact-driven use. The socket is not impact rated, so it must be turned by hand or with a non-impact ratchet. Users must verify that the specific voltage and environment fall within the cited standards before each job.
Chrome-Finished Alloy Steel Build
The HAWA alloy steel body carries a chrome finish that resists corrosion and wipes clean after use. The 1/4 inch square drive accepts standard ratchets, extensions and torque wrenches without adapters. The insulation moulding stays bonded to the steel, keeping the grip profile slim for access in tight panels.

Questions about this item
Should I choose the 3/16 inch size or another socket from the range?

It certifies the insulation meets international safety requirements for live electrical work.
How does the 1/4 inch drive interface limit what I can use with this socket?
The 1/4 inch square drive fits matching ratchets and extensions; it will not accept larger 3/8 or 1/2 inch drive tools.
