Stahlwille Socket, 8mm Socket Size, 3/8 inches Drive Size - 2380008


This socket is a 3/8in drive tool designed for secure engagement with 12-point fasteners in electrical and mechanical settings. It combines a Compact overall length with an 8mm head size to suit confined workspaces while providing an insulated option for live-electrical environments.

Features and Benefits:


• 12-point configuration improves engagement on shallow fasteners
• 3/8in drive enables use with common mid-size ratchets
• Insulated construction supports protected handling near live circuits
• Hex drive compatibility ensures precise torque transfer
• Short overall length aids access in tight assemblies

Applications


• Suitable for assembly of control panels in automation systems
• Ideal for maintenance of distribution boards and switchgear
• Used with ratchets for mechanical equipment servicing
• Can be used for on-site electrical fault diagnosis tasks

Is this tool appropriate for use on live electrical work?


It is rated for VDE/1000V applications, allowing work on live systems where such insulation is required by procedure.

How does the socket’s geometry affect fastener contact?


The 12-point profile increases contact points, reducing the risk of rounding on recessed or worn heads during high-cycle fastening.

Which drive size should I pair it with for general workshop use?


Use a 3/8in drive ratchet or extension to match the drive Interface and maintain correct torque application.

Will the length suit confined mounting locations?


With a Compact overall length of 43mm it is engineered to reach fasteners in restricted spaces without excessive protrusion.
