Ratchets

Ratchets are lever wrenches with a freewheeling mechanism: they allow screws and nuts to be tightened and loosened without removing the wrench, saving a great deal of time in workshops, maintenance and assembly.

Types in the collection

• Reversible manual ratchets, with ergonomic grip and 1/4", 3/8" and 1/2" drives (Fervi, Stanley)
• 12 V and 18 V cordless ratchets, also with long or compact head (Milwaukee, DeWalt, Makita)
• Air ratchets (Abac)

How to choose

The square drive must match that of the sockets you use. For tight spaces a compact or long head is best; for repetitive work the cordless or air model saves effort. For final tightening to a controlled torque, torque wrenches are still needed.

If you often work on nuts and bolts of different sizes, it is worth pairing the ratchet with a complete socket set and the relevant extensions, so as to cover every drive without changing tool.
