Insulated Socket 16mm 1/2in Drive VDE Chrome Vanadium

A 16mm insulated VDE socket with a 1/2in drive, used where electrical service and maintenance work calls for controlled fastening with insulated hand tools. Made from chrome vanadium steel, it gives you a single common socket size in a format suited to trade and professional use.

Used for tightening and loosening 16mm fasteners during electrical installation, inspection and maintenance jobs, this socket suits electricians, maintenance engineers and service technicians who need an insulated socket for routine site work. It is also useful for workshop and plant maintenance where access to the correct drive size matters and where keeping to insulated tooling is part of the job.

The 16mm size makes it suitable for tasks where that exact socket size is required, while the 1/2in drive fits compatible ratchets, extensions and torque tools already in many kits. Chrome vanadium steel gives the socket a solid base material, and the insulated VDE format makes it a sensible choice for users working within appropriate insulated tool setups. For regular servicing and maintenance, having the required size ready helps avoid unnecessary swapping between near-fit sockets and keeps work more straightforward.
