Matco Eighty8 Ratchet Head Depth

[The Critic]

Greetings,

Does anyone know the "head depth" of Matco's Eighty8 ratchets? Matco's website does not list the info; I would like to know the head depth of their 1/4" and 3/8" drive ratchets before buying one.



Thanks!

1/4 is a touch less than 3/8" thick and 3/8 is just shy of 1/2" thick.

There are the heights of the head and the head including the selector lever. The Matco, GW, and Tekton are the thinnest "standard" ratchets I've seen. Edit- standard meaning not 3/8 in a 1/4 body which will have reduced torque capacity based on lower gear height.

1/4: .36 / .41
3/8: .48 / .54

Thank you to you both!
