3/8" Drive 12-Point Metric 23 mm Shallow Socket - J.H. Williams

The J.H. Williams JHWBM-1223 3/8" Drive 12-Point Metric 23 mm Shallow Socket is engineered for professional technicians and mechanics requiring reliable performance in demanding automotive and industrial environments. This shallow socket combines a robust design with advanced fastener engagement technology to provide efficient and secure operation, minimizing wear on both the tool and the workpiece.

Key Features

• SuperTorque™ Lobular Openings: Designed to apply turning force to the fastener flats, not the corners, significantly reducing the risk of fastener rounding and deformation, while providing greater turning power.
• Quick Engagement: The 12-point configuration allows for rapid and easy engagement on both 6-point and 12-point fasteners, improving efficiency in fast-paced work settings.
• Shallow Profile: Its shallow design provides critical clearance for accessing fasteners in restricted or confined spaces where standard-depth sockets may not fit.
• Professional-Grade Construction: Manufactured by J.H. Williams, this socket is built from high-strength alloy steel with a durable finish to withstand rigorous daily use in professional applications.
• 3/8" Drive Compatibility: Compatible with all standard 3/8" drive ratchets, extensions, and accessories, making it a versatile addition to any professional tool kit.
• 23 mm Metric Size: Precisely sized for a wide range of metric fasteners commonly found in modern vehicles and machinery.

Applications

This 23 mm shallow socket is an essential tool for various tasks, including general automotive repair, engine maintenance, suspension work, and industrial machinery assembly. It is particularly useful for technicians working on components with specific 23mm metric fasteners or in tight areas where a standard socket depth would obstruct access. Its durable construction makes it suitable for both impact and manual use in professional workshop environments.
