Best bit ratchet?

[EmptyWallet]

I'm interested in this one here:

And a few others.

The Wera:

The Facom (72 teeth!!)

Any thoughts or ideas?

I would take the VIM. Cheaper than the others, smaller head than the Wera and i don´t know if you need 5/16" bits ? I guess they´re from the same factory anyway...

The Husky from Home Depot looks similar to the Facom. When I was looking for a bit ratchet, small, compact, and durable were my criteria. I went with the Husky. I have 4 or 5 of them in various tool locations.

What's the tooth count on the husky?

I'm looking for something that's fine tooth, the SO model is 36 teeth 12 degree.

That Facom model is 72 teeth 5 degree.

I use the Husky 66604 every day at work. It's a nice little ratchet. It's a fine tooth, 60 maybe? I've thought about one for home, but I don't think I'll use it much. However, that's never stopped me from buying a tool before!

It is imported, but for the qualty and the price I would buy it.

Titan Micro Driver is 60 tooth, but tiny. Claims 43 ft/lbs torque in the Amazon listing. About 12 bucks. I have them and like them.

Love that thing I use it a lot on car interiors either with a hex bit or I use a hex to 1/4" adapter with a socket

Where can I buy the Facom's from? That ratchet and the one linked in my first post?

 

[woody 73]

I don't know about the "Best Bit Ratchet Set" out there but I have the Sunex 38 piece Mini Ratchet bit set Sun 9726 for about $20.00 dollars. Mind you that sucker is very,very small and it is great for small spaces but I think it is made in either China or Taiwan; if that does not bother you then be sure and look at it before you buy any of the other ones out there.

I have the Wera and like it a lot.

I'm not really looking for the best SET per se, but the best ratchet.

I have both Wera and Hazet bit ratchets. Both are nice and have had no issues with either one.
