Hexagon socket for hex head screws AF 10 mm, 1/2 inch square drive, VDE insulated, 54 mm - Knipex 98 47 10

In switchgear and on terminal strips, hexagonal screws often have to be undone close to live parts. The 98 47 10 socket takes 10 mm across flats, fits a 1/2 inch square drive and is insulated over its full working length to IEC 60900.

Benefits

• For metric hexagonal head screws with 10 mm across flats, positive fit without rounding the screw corners.
• Basic tool chrome-plated, protected against corrosion and easy to clean.
• 1/2 inch internal square, matching the reversible ratchets and extension bars of the same range.
• Fully insulated and tested to DIN EN 60900 and IEC 60900 for live working up to 1000 V.
• Diameter of the working end 19.5 mm, so the socket also reaches screws in confined positions.
• Overall length 54 mm at 63 g, a manageable weight even during longer overhead work.

Applications

Electrical installation, control cabinet and switchgear assembly, service and maintenance on machinery. Wherever bolted terminals, busbars and enclosure parts are undone and tightened again and the proximity of live parts calls for an insulated tool.

Standards and conformity

The socket is tested to DIN EN 60900 and IEC 60900 for hand held insulated tools for live working. According to the manufacturer it contains no substances of very high concern in the sense of REACH. The RoHS directive is not applicable to this product.
