Milwaukee 1/4in Drive Flexible Head Ratchet -1 Piece (4932479648)

Description

Genuine Milwaukee · Part no. 4932479648

Milwaukee's 4932479648 is a 1/4in drive ratchet with a flexible head that locks in 7 positions or swings freely. It has 90 teeth, so it needs only a 4 degree swing to take the next bite, and a slim head with a flush direction lever for small sockets in tight engine bays; it weighs 0.18 kg.

Good to know

• What is a 1/4in ratchet for on a car? Small fasteners: trim screws, sensor and bracket bolts, hose clips and fixings under the dash, where light torque and a small head matter.
• When should I lock the head and when let it swing? Lock it at an angle to reach round an obstruction while you pull; let it swing freely to spin a loose bolt quickly.
• Can I use it to free tight bolts? No. 1/4in drive is for light work, so crack tight bolts with a bigger drive or a breaker bar first and the teeth won't be stripped.

Which one?

Where a socket won't fit at all, a ratcheting spanner such as the Milwaukee 10 mm MAX BITE ratcheting combination spanner (4932471503) does the small-bolt job instead; the Carlyle 10 Piece 12 Point Stubby Combination Wrench Set 10mm to 19mm (CCWS1210M) suits tight spaces too.
