12V Cordless Ratchet 3/8 Inch — Sub-Compact, 35 ft-lb, Variable Speed

A cordless ratchet in a sub-compact body, which is the reason to own one: it reaches into an engine bay or under a dashboard where a full-size ratchet and your hand will not both fit. The variable trigger lets you run a fastener down quickly and then slow for the final turns.

Care & Use

A powered ratchet runs a fastener down; the final tightening should be done by hand with a torque wrench where a figure is specified. Do not use it to break a seized bolt loose — that is what a breaker bar is for, and it will strip the head instead.
