Looking for a mini air ratchet

[The Critic]

1/4 or 3/8, doesn’t matter. I just want something that is compact and has rpm/torque that is similar to the non-fuel Milwaukee 1/4.

I heard SP Air used to partner with MAC for some of their pneumatic tools. SP Air’s newest “HD” ratchet caught my attention:

SP-1765HD 3/8″ Super Fast Mini Impact Ratchet

Does anyone have experience with this brand or unit?

 

[Mr_B]

they are good & game changer over old non impacting clutch air ratchets .
other options are astro 1128 or Kuani KI-2323

i purchased this one, SP-7265RP. I have only used it a few times. It has been great to use. I bought mine new for $19.00, but it is even cheaper right now. I have bought several item from National Tool Warehouse, all good transactions.

That is an insane deal. SPAir makes excellent air tools and their impacting ratchets are beyond great. EVERYBODY SHOULD TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THIS INCREDIBLE DEAL. I just did.

I have the little aircat 1/4" drive one, it's very small and most importantly quiet.

Just purchased, thank you.

Agreed. For that price, there is no reason to look at anything else.

New user posts a link to an unknown site with a too good to be true price? What could go wrong?

It was a good, legitimate find. I have purchased from that site before. That particular model, at least the old version, has been discontinued - so maybe their distributor was offering a ridiculous price for the old model?

I hope it works great for everyone

 

[dnschmidt]

That site is completely legit and I've bought things from them before without issue. Don't know how they got this deal and I don't care if the Mafia hijacked a truck. If it's the authentic SPAir tool for what amounts to tip money I'm in. Just got the order confirmation in my inbox.

 

[Mr_B]

just done order for 3 ...
if was an issue the card got cover ...

I have both an old Snap-on FAR25A that I like for its speed and compactness, however, my favorite and "go-to" 1/4" drive pneumatic ratchet is my MAC AR249. I really like the MAC AR249 because the fwd/rev. switch is back farther from the anvil and less likely to get bumped and switched during use. I think both have newer versions of these air ratchets but those are the two I have and use.

 

[RTM]

Dang, shipping is more than the tool. Still a bargain.

"New user" has been here since 2019, just not a prolific poster. I'm counting on Paypal covering if its fraudulent.

I didn't need it but I'm in. I paid with PayPal, to cover myself if it's a scam.

 

[ThePostman]

For what it's worth I have this air ratchet by Facom rebranded as Mac. The anvil is interchangeable between 1/4" and 3/8". It's a little loud but the size is right for many applications.

Here is the one I received last year. Minus the whip.

Thanks! I was bummed that I couldn't check out with a Canadian credit card and billing address. Paypal to the rescue!

 

[sparky 1971]

How did you get to the paypal checkout? It's giving me an error:

"This transaction cannot be processed. The amount to be charged is zero."

It doesn't seem to be picking up the shipping cost.

I think they are all gone. Vopy and paste the part number in to to yhe search bar and it will come up with nothing.

 

[GeoBruin]

Someone figured out the oops? I hope they ship!

I got my shipping notice and tracking number this morning (ordered yesterday around 10 AM eastern)

Did you also buy all the toilet paper back during COVID haha? Just kidding. But strange you ordered 3 and didn't let other members purchase one before they sold out. Maybe you needed 3?

I didn't need buy toilet paper during covid as had a fair bit stocked when had a good promo going pre covid era ...
2 ratchets for use by me and shop employee, and one for gift to technician friend who still a keen air tool user ...

 

[RTM]

Well crud: Sorry we do not have this item in stock and at this time do not have an ETA for them to come in. We have canceled the order and returned your payment

Life goes on

 

[Pontiac787]

I got them same message. I think they were in stock when I added them to the cart but I waited too long before checking out.

 

[GeoBruin]

Ordered 9:00 AM yesterday and I just got the message that the order was cancelled.

I Have that one. It worked good for a while, but then like all air ratches do, the head develops wear and they do not work as well.

Same here. Although I knew that email was coming. Yep, life goes on.

 

[mhejl]

I got a ship confirmation. Order placed 1/9, 9:07am CST. Don't at all need it but who cares at this price!

 

[dnschmidt]

Apparently I got my order in on time too as I've received a shipping confirmation. Just another example of "YOU SNOOZ YOU LOSE."

 

[RichieP_MechE]

It's legit. Fresh off the UPS truck

 

[CallumRD1]

My order placed at 9:23 AM MST was canceled. I'm rather disappointed. I had been in the market for a tool like this for a while and was really excited to try it out.

I was 1135 PST. Guess I should not have focused on the day job so much. Don't know if Callum or I can make it to Texas to intercept the delivery.

 

[SteadyC]

What was the price?

 

[RichieP_MechE]

What was the price?

$12.72 plus $12.95 shipping

I also found a SP Air Low Profile Hex Driver when I ordered the mini-ratchet. Stupid cheap for $7.93. I really didn't think I would get either tool, but here they are. The hex bit driver uses standard 1/4" bits. Never seen one before, but it will come in handy on the trike.

I managed to get the same deal. They are both nice tools for less then $40 delivered

 

[WWheeler]

Yep, I at first got an email saying "Sorry we do not have the SPASP-7265RP in stock" and was a bit bummed I missed out.

BUT not long after that I got an email saying it was shipped.

Look what arrived today.

 

[Jeff]

 

[The Critic]

Mine arrived.

 

[demarpaint]

Mine arrived.

I'm jealous, lol. I was late to the party and missed out with a canceled order.
