Cementex BEW-18DOS Insulated Deep Offset Box End Wrench, 9/16''

Product Overview

The Cementex BEW-18DOS is a 9/16-inch insulated deep offset box end wrench designed for secure access and maximum operator safety when working near energized electrical components. Constructed from heat-treated alloy steel, this wrench features a slender head and a 60-degree offset configuration, allowing technicians to reach confined or obstructed spaces with ease.

Engineered for high-voltage applications, the BEW-18DOS ensures safety up to 1,000V. The tool incorporates a dual-layer insulation system featuring a continuous orange outer layer and a yellow underlayer. If the yellow underlayer becomes visible through wear or damage, it serves as a distinct visual warning that the tool's dielectric integrity has been compromised and it should be immediately removed from service.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the yellow layer on the wrench indicate?
The yellow underlayer acts as a visual wear indicator. If the outer orange insulation is damaged or worn enough to expose the yellow layer beneath, the tool's insulation is compromised and it must be immediately removed from high-voltage service.

What safety standards does this insulated wrench meet?
The tool is fully compliant with IEC 60900 and ASTM F1505 specifications governing insulated hand tools used in live-working environments.
