Description of GearWrench 85909 GearBox Ratcheting Wrench
Zero degree offset for superior access even for recessed fasteners. Up to 40-Percent longer to access those hard to reach fasteners. Ratcheting box end for maximum productivity. Surface Drive technology reduces fastener rounding and adds stength.
Based on our own experience this industrial hand tool didn`t live up to the expectations set by other reviews. We found the ratcheting mechanism to be clunky and hard to OPERATE smoothly, making the wrench difficult to use in tight spaces. However, the cushioned grip was a nice touch..
Pros
12-point box end design allows for a more precise fit and reduces rounding of fasteners
Cons
Requires a larger amount of workspace compared to traditional hand wrenches
I've been a mechanic for 10 years and have had a 10-19mm set. They are very secure and the XL length is comfortable for reach and leverage. I've added 8mm and 9mm to my collection just in case, but haven't used them yet.
