Product Details
This ratchet features a 3/8 inch drive on a 1/4 inch drive body, using the same body as the 1/4 inch drive by 6 inch ratchet to provide access and agility with a smaller handle and ratchet head in a 3/8 inch drive. It performs like a 1/4 inch ratchet and meets 1/4 inch ratchet proof torque standards. The ratchet head is smaller than standard 3/8 inch drive ratchets, improving access to tight spaces. It includes a 90-tooth fine-tooth gear requiring only a 4-degree swing arc, and a single half-moon pawl that maintains engagement with 9 teeth of the gear at all times, preventing slippage or skipping under stress. The handle is sleek and comfortable with a finger groove that has pronounced interior edges for traction and control in any finger position; the pommel at the end of the handle is rounded for comfort and prevents the hand from slipping off. The working handle length is measured from the center of the drive tang to the end of the handle, consistent with the naming of ratchets and breaker bars according to effective working length.
