  • Perfect
Style: 3/8" Long Handle
It's just what I needed in my toolbox for those days when a little extra leverage is needed. Not as strong as a 2 foot breaker bar, but for breaking torques of 300 "inch" pounds or less it's perfect and it ratchets, so I don't have to switch out to a regular ratchet handle. Remember that's INCH pounds, not FOOT pounds. 300 foot pounds would destroy this handle in a heartbeat. ... show more

  • Broke after 2 weeks.
Style: 3/8" Flex Head
I’m a mechanic by trade, and do some l mechanical work at home on my cars friends cars and the family members cars. What I’m trying to say Is I would use this wrench maybe 2-4 hours a day 3 days a week. I have tools at work so I would just use this specific socket wrench at home. After about 2 weeks of use the teeth began locking up so I removed them and cleaned them then the issue was fixed or so I thought nope they locked up again after that I was a bit upset, thought I bought a defective socket wrench, so I bought another cause you know what I can’t lie at first I liked the low profile flex head and extremely long handle it was great for getting to hard to reach places like starters and water pump pulleys etc. but the new one I bought same thing teeth jammed and I was down another 40 bucks. Moral of my story if you are gonna use this socket wrench more than 5 times it’s not worth buying because after the 5th use it breaks. ... show more

  • Broke upon use
Style: 3/8" Flex Head
Does not hold up to what it says 195 ft lbs. I had torqued something to 175 and it broke trying to remove it. Got a new one ordered and sent the broken one back. Great tool but will not be a heavy breaker. I’d say 150 torque is the max

  • essential tool for specific applications
Style: 3/8" Flex Head
I needed this tool to replace a starter motor in a 2004 Honda Accord with the 2.4 l engine. On this vehicle the starter is beneath the intake manifold and the larger of the two bolts that holds the starter to the engine (17 mm) is nearly beneath the starter and in a very awkward position that is nearly impossible to access. This tool made the job as easy as it could be and it stood up to the full pressure of my weight (175 pounds) pressing against the handle to break the bolt free. I could not have done the job without this tool. Well made, versatile, easy to adjust, and long enough to provide a lot of torque necessary to free stubborn nuts and bolts. Highly recommended. ... show more

  • Great ratchet
Style: 3/8" Flex Head
This ratchet is small and thin and that's what makes it good, I wouldn't recommend pulling real hard on it as it's liable to break, I use it for tight spaces and it works great, I have looked at lots of 3/8 ratchets like this and this is probably one of thinnest ones and longest

  • Quality Tool
Style: 3/8" Flex Head
I had another brand 18” 3/8 swivel ratchet that failed after the 1st use. I used the new PT ratchet to losses up the tensioner for a serpentine belt. I ended up adding allot of torque, and for an extended period of time until by arms wore out. oops serpentine belt was to short. Anyway this tool has proven to be effective and durable. I would recommend this product to others. ... show more

  • Broken immediately
Style: 3/8" Flex Head
The Bolt that holds the flexible head to the handle immediately broke. Then the internal springs flew to Narnia and disappeared like my brother in law when there is any manual labor. Not worth the money if you are using it for anything more than 0 to 10 inch/lbs
