Milwaukee 1/4in Drive Long Ratchet (4932479647)

Description

Genuine Milwaukee · Part no. 4932479647

A long-handled 1/4in drive ratchet with a slim head and a direction lever that sits flush, so the head slips into narrow gaps. The extra handle length gives a little more reach and control on small fasteners, while the 90-tooth mechanism needs only about 4 degrees of swing to click on to the next tooth.

Good to know

• When does the long handle help? Reaching past hoses and pipes to a screw at the back of the engine bay, or steadying a small socket on a fiddly head. It is not there to add brute force; quarter-inch fasteners are small and strip easily.
• Why does the tooth count matter? With so little swing needed per tooth, you can keep turning a bolt where the handle can only move a short way between a wing and the engine.
• Should I use it to break a seized bolt? No. Use a bigger drive and a breaker bar for that, then finish with this ratchet.

Which one?

For a shorter handle in very tight spots, the Carlyle 1/4in Drive 90-Tooth Ratchet 135mm Long (CR1490); for bigger fasteners, the Milwaukee 3/8in Drive Long Ratchet (4932479651).
