This tool is a GAME-CHANGER for any industrial and scientific application. the ratcheting mechanism makes threading faster and easier than ever before. The compact design makes it easy to use in tight spaces, and the durable construction ensures it will last for many projects to come. The only possible downside is that it may take some time to get used to the ratcheting action, but once you do, you'll wonder how you ever managed without it. Highly recommend for any professional industry worker....
