Box and Ratchet Wrenches

[toolj]

Do any other 1st world manufactures make one end box, one end ratchet wrenches like these Armstrongs?

I can't get hold of these in the UK

I'll check out Matco but couldn't see any on Snap on's site

search XDHRM10-19, example XDHRM15

There are very smooth ratcheting wrenches, smoothest I ever handled.

FWIW, the USA Matcos will be the same as the Armstrongs, just a different name stamped into the handle. They are good wrenches, I carry an Armstrong at work and use it daily.

If you get old stock Pro-Swings they will be. Matco switched to Taiwan manufacture and a 90 tooth spline drive some years back.

OP Armstrong is pretty much it. The XDHRMs qualify but they're very long.

Just to throw them out there Gedore has double box ratchet wrenches in a more general use length. No fixed box end though.

Try I think Primetools, or failing that search on 'Armstrong tools UK'! They list a load of Armstrong tools so should be able to source these for you!
