Socket 1/2" 27 mm 1000V insulated, NEO tools 01-193

Insulated 1/2" six-point socket by NEO tools, size 27 mm, model 01-193, rated for 1000V. This socket is designed to be used with 1/2" drive tools and provides an exact six-point engagement with hex fasteners. The insulated exterior and internal construction meet the need for hand tools intended for work on live electrical installations up to the stated voltage, offering an insulated barrier between the user and conductive parts when used correctly.

Advantages

The 27 mm six-point profile ensures a secure fit on hexagonal heads, reducing the risk of rounding fasteners. Insulation rated to 1000V allows work on live circuits within the rated voltage when standard safety procedures are followed. Compatibility with 1/2" drive tools enables use with common ratchets and torque tools. The socket's construction balances mechanical strength and insulating properties to maintain functionality in electrical maintenance tasks.

Suitable for

• Electricians performing maintenance and repair on live or de-energized installations up to 1000V
• Service technicians working on electrical panels, switchgear, and distribution equipment
• Industrial maintenance teams requiring insulated hand tools for safety-compliant fastening
• Any tasks requiring a 27 mm six-point socket with 1/2" drive in environments where electrical insulation is necessary

Key specifications

• Drive size: 1/2" (12.7 mm)
• Socket size: 27 mm
• Point configuration: six-point (hex)
• Insulation rating: 1000V

How to use

Select a compatible 1/2" drive tool and fit the 27 mm socket onto the fastener with full engagement of the six-point profile. Before beginning work, verify the insulation is intact and free of visible damage; do not use if the insulating layer is compromised. When working on live equipment, follow all applicable safety procedures and personal protective equipment requirements. Apply torque smoothly and avoid using excessive force or cheater bars that could transfer unsafe loads to the insulating covering.

Usage recommendations

Regularly inspect the insulated socket for cracks, cuts, or wear in the insulating material. Clean and store the tool in a dry environment away from oils and solvents that may degrade insulation. Use this insulated socket only within its rated voltage and in accordance with workplace safety standards and local regulations.
