11 mm 12-point insulated socket
This 11 mm insulated socket features a 12-point metric profile for secure fastener engagement. It is designed for hand-driven use on live electrical systems up to the rated voltage. The Chrome Vanadium construction provides strength and corrosion resistance. A Chrome finish adds surface protection in workshop environments.
Sustained torque on live circuits
The insulated coating maintains its dielectric properties during repeated fastening cycles on energised equipment. Chrome Vanadium alloy resists rounding when high torque is applied steadily. The 12-point geometry distributes load evenly across fastener flats. This reduces the risk of slippage during prolonged tightening or loosening tasks.
Replaces worn or non-insulated 11 mm sockets
Upgrade when existing 11 mm sockets show insulation damage or lack a voltage rating. The 12-point drive offers more engagement angles than 6-point alternatives in tight access. Buyers needing impact-rated drive tools or larger drive sizes will not be served by this hand-socket design. It suits electricians and maintenance technicians working to relevant safety standards.

Questions about this item
Does the 12-point design generate extra heat during extended use?
The 12-point socket is a passive hand tool with no moving parts or electrical components, so it produces no heat during operation.
What drive size ratchet or breaker bar is required to use this 11 mm socket?
The socket has a 1/2-inch drive opening, so you need a 1/2-inch drive ratchet, breaker bar or torque wrench to turn it.
Will this 11 mm socket fit on older 1/2-inch drive tools I already own?
Yes, the 1/2-inch drive conforms to the standard square-drive dimension, so it engages any 1/2-inch drive ratchet or extension regardless of age.
