Socket Lid Replacement Kit - Zinc Die-Cast Lid, Stainless Spring & Pin - Phillips 15-796 Tectran 670-7114 PHI15-796

A socket lid that will not spring shut is an open invitation to water, road salt and corrosion. This Socket Lid Replacement Kit from Phillips restores a socket whose lid is missing or will no longer close, instead of forcing you to pull, rewire and replace the entire socket. The kit puts back the three parts that actually fail: a zinc die-cast lid, a stainless steel spring and a stainless steel pin. We stock these heavily right here in our Hanover Park, Illinois warehouse to ensure lightning-fast shipping for fleets, trailer repair shops, and owner-operators nationwide.

Repair Instead of Replace: The Phillips Socket Lid Kit Advantage

The socket itself is rarely what dies. What dies is the lid: it gets caught by a jumper cable, snapped off backing into a dock, or the spring rusts until the lid simply hangs open and lets weather straight onto the contacts. From there the pins green over, the trailer lights start working only sometimes, and a perfectly good socket gets condemned. This kit fixes the failure at its source for a fraction of the price of the socket.

The replacement lid is zinc die-cast rather than plastic, so it stands up to the slamming and the winter weather that took out the original, and both the spring and pin are stainless steel so the pivot keeps working after the first road-salt season. One important check before you order: this kit is suitable for Phillips die-cast sockets and socketbreakers only. At FleetPro Parts & Tires, we would rather you match the part than return it. This kit is a direct replacement for highly searched industry numbers including Phillips 15-796, Tectran 670-7114 and 38362, and Velvac 591019.
