Wiha Tools 13/16" 12-Point Insulated Socket 1/2" Drive

Insulated 13/16-Inch Socket for High-Voltage Work

This Wiha Tools socket is an insulated hand tool designed for electrical safety during live-line maintenance. It features a 13/16 inch SAE opening with twelve-point geometry and a standard 1/2 inch drive square. The chrome vanadium construction has a chrome finish for corrosion resistance. It is supplied new for professional electricians and industrial maintenance teams.

Suited for Electricians.

This socket suits qualified personnel who must work on or near energised equipment up to its rated insulation class. The twelve-point profile engages fastener flats quickly in restricted access. Buyers who only need a standard 13/16 inch socket for mechanical tasks without electrical hazard should look at non-insulated alternatives. The Proposition 65 warning also applies to users in California.

Insulation Rating Is the Deciding Specification

The single specification that decides whether this is the right part is its certified insulation rating for live electrical work. That rating determines the maximum voltage environment where the tool provides protection. Without verifying that rating against your specific safety standard, the socket cannot be selected for high-voltage tasks. Always confirm the insulation class before purchase.
