Proto Tether-Ready 3/8" Drive Deep Socket 18 MM - 12 Point J5018M-TT-SBD

Proto's professional-grade 18mm metric tether-ready deep socket engineered for high-precision industrial maintenance and assembly. Featuring a 3/8 inch drive and a 12-point configuration, this tool is designed to provide maximum accessibility and engagement on stubborn or damaged fasteners while ensuring an essential safety layer for elevated work. The integrated Positive Control System requires a separate tool for attachment or removal, ensuring the socket cannot be accidentally detached—a critical safety feature for preventing dropped objects in "at-height" environments. Built with a heat-treated alloy and a durable chrome finish, this deep socket is designed to resist wear and corrosion throughout a long service life.
