In case it's not clear to the reading challenged among us; I'm not looking for the impossible and I've already solved my problem by using 1/4" square to 1/4" hex adapters. I'm simply pointing out the fact that it's odd that a tool of this type is not readily available from many manufacturers commonly offered in the US.

It seems from other posts that are more helpful that a number of solutions exist in EU and UK offerings, thanks to those that posted those helpful references, I'll look into it for the future. It must be those companies see a need for such a tool configuration - without needing to order a rebuild kit for a ratchet to get what you want.

You just choose not to look at the US solutions. There are many out there, a person just has to contact them using a phone (a gizmo you talk through and hear sounds out it as well). They have what you want, just they aren't always listed on their websites......

I agree.

If you have to call, it's not "readily available". I don't think my point is getting across obviously.

I think a point or two has been made but not necessarily the ones you wanted....

For now we are using 1/4" square to 1/4" hex adapters on a 1/4" drive Proto torque wrench. I'm considering the Polar unit sown above for the future.
