Gearwrench ratchet grip

[belvedere]

Anyone know of a comfort grip that will fit on a Gearwrench 81009 1/4” ratchet? Apex says they don’t sell any parts and sent me a new ratchet. While I sure appreciate that, there’s nothing wrong with this one except that the grip is in bad shape.

If it's not so mangled up with chunks missing you can get some chemical resistant heat shrink tubing and put over it. I've used X-tube heat shrink to put on the knurled grips on a Proto 1/2 drive ratchet. It really works great and I've had no trouble with it.

You could also check out Re-Grip, who make universal and easy to install comfort grips for any reasonably sized handle.

Instead of a replacement comfort grip, why not put an acetate handle onto it from a screwdriver? There's a very large thread about doing exactly that - and a myriad of other options.

Thanks for the suggestions!
