Extra Long Handle 1/2” Ratchet

[RPH]

Tekton, they make the tools that work for a price that is affordable. I have the 3/4” breaker bar, it is a beast!

ou guys do you, but those of us trained in the last century were taught never to use a ratchet to break loose a fastener. And to use a flex head ratchet to break loose fasteners . . . . we just can't bring ourselves to go there.

Never? You never use a ratchet to break loose a fastener? Come on….

I don't plan on keeping it with me at all times. I would take it if we are headed on a long distance trip or camping. In our area's that we go camping we do not have cell service. I usually carry a wide assortment of tools with me on these occasions. I'm going to check out the Snap On ratchet and even see what a friend of mine could get a new one through the Snap On truck.

Thanks

Spend the cash on something decent and maybe spread it out, over time if need be.

Snap on. SN243B breaker bar and SF80A live in the garage.

I don't think the OP said he was keeping it in the car..... and he mentioned a Cornwell, so we're talking dollars.

The 24" Dual-80 is a fantastic tool that nothing else can touch (IMHO). Well worth the money.... and no silver spoon here.

Just received the FLF80A, SO 24 inch flex ratchet early bday. Wow may not need the SO breaker bar anymore.
