Abstract:
An electrically isolated socket may include a drive body, a driven body, and a body portion. The driven body may be made of first metallic material and having a driven end configured to receive a fastener. The drive body may be made of a second metallic material and having a drive end configured to receive a protrusion of a driving tool. The body portion may over-mold substantially all portions of the drive body and the driven body other than the drive end and the driven end, respectively. The drive end of the drive body and the driven end of the driven body may face away from each other, and the drive body and driven body each include axial grooves. The axial grooves of the drive body each extend substantially perpendicular to an annular groove formed in the drive body from the annular groove formed in the drive body to the drive end, and the axial grooves of the driven body each extend substantially perpendicularly to an annular groove formed in the driven body from the annular groove formed in the driven body to the driven end.
