TEKTON 3/8 Drive 12 Flex Head Quick-Release Long Ratchet

Tekton 3/8 inch drive flex head ratchets feature a 90-tooth gear that produces a working swing arc of only 4 degrees. This fine-tooth ratcheting mechanism ensures reliable performance, as the single half-moon pawl maintains 9 teeth engaged with the gear at all times, preventing slippage or skipping under stress. The flex head can move 180-degrees, snapping into 9 different detent angles, allowing you to reach around obstacles with ease. The handle's finger groove has pronounced interior edges, providing excellent traction and control regardless of your finger placement. Additionally, the rounded pommel at the end of the handle keeps your hand from slipping off, ensuring a comfortable grip.

Unlike conventional "low profile" designs that focus solely on reducing the thickness of the head, Tekton has taken a more comprehensive approach, reducing the size in every dimension: length, width, and height. This ultra-compact head design enhances accessibility and maneuverability in tight spaces.

Tekton ratchets meet, and most far exceed, the industry standard for proof torque, a measure of strength verified by a single-cycle test that applies torque until the specified value is reached without failure or any permanent deformation. This ensures the durability and reliability of these tools, making them a trusted choice for professionals and DIY enthusiasts alike.
