Insulated Socket 12mm 1/2in Drive VDE Chrome Vanadium

A 12mm insulated VDE socket with a 1/2in drive, made from chrome vanadium steel for fastening work where insulated hand tools are required. Built as a single socket for buyers who need this specific size for electrical maintenance, servicing and regular tool kit replacement.

Used for tightening and loosening 12mm fasteners during electrical work, maintenance jobs and general repair tasks, it suits trade users as well as buyers topping up an insulated tool kit. A 1/2in drive makes it suitable for use with compatible ratchets, extensions and other drive tools when access, reach or working position calls for a socket rather than a spanner.

The 12mm size is suited to tasks where that exact fit is needed, helping reduce the chance of using the wrong socket on common fastening jobs. Its insulated VDE construction makes it appropriate for users who need insulated tooling, while the chrome vanadium steel build gives the socket the strength expected for repeated use. The 1/2in drive format is a widely used workshop and maintenance size, making it easier to fit into an existing set-up with matching drive tools. As a single replacement or spare socket, it is a practical way to keep a frequently used size close to hand.
