Product Information

Full details

This Laser Tools Insulated Extra Long Star Bit Socket (T30 x 3/8"D, MPN 8921) is designed for electricians and technicians working on or near live electrical systems. Its primary benefit is providing safe operation up to 1000V AC / 1500V DC, preventing accidental shocks. A key consideration is that while insulated, proper safety protocols and training are still essential when working with live voltages.

Troubleshooting

Socket does not fit the fastener securely.

Ensure you are using a T30 size and that the fastener head is not stripped or worn. Verify it is a Torx (star) fastener.

Difficulty engaging with the fastener due to depth.

The extra-long design should provide ample reach. If access is still an issue, re-evaluate the surrounding components for obstructions.

Visible damage to the insulation.

Discontinue use immediately. Do not use the tool for any electrical work. Replace the socket to maintain safety standards.
