Grote 68170 Single Contact Socket Repair Assembly – 18 Gauge Wire for 0.625" (5/8") Sockets

Reliable Restoration for Smaller Light Sockets The Grote 68170 is a precision-engineered Single Contact Socket Repair Assembly designed to restore electrical connectivity to specialized lighting fixtures. This assembly is the professional choice for repairing corroded or damaged sockets commonly found in marker lamps, clearance lights, and interior utility lighting on heavy-duty trucks and trailers.

Durable 18-Gauge Construction Electrical reliability starts with quality wiring. The 68170 features a 12-inch (305 mm) long lead made from high-grade 18-gauge wire. This length provides ample slack for routing through tight housings and making secure splices into the existing vehicle harness. The single-wire design is optimized for ground-return or single-function circuits, ensuring consistent power delivery to your bulbs.

Precision Fit for 0.625" Sockets Stop struggling with universal pigtails that don't seat correctly. The Grote 68170 is specifically sized for 0.625" (5/8") diameter sockets. Its design ensures a tight, vibration-resistant fit that maintains constant contact with the bulb base, preventing the flickering and intermittent failure often caused by worn-out OEM socket components.
