New Pittsburgh Pro Ratchets/Harbor Freight

[ebas1984]

Hey guys,

Have any of you seen or used any of these ratchets? What are they like? I just saw them in the flyer and I couldn't find any forum topics pertaining to them. So I created a new topic. My apologies if one already existed.

They look just like Snap-On comfort grip ratchets. No quick release. Flex heads and long handles. They look pretty nice. Especially for the price + 20% off coupon. Was thinking of getting the long handle 1/2" & 3/8" ratchets.

Thoughts...

The main thread about these is titled almost exactly the same as your thread. Do a search... you'll find it.

I really like mine for the price. Was going to get the 120xp flex set, but these will do instead.

There not locking or have detents so the head does move easy. Yes you can tighten it but It's not the same. I prefer my kobalt flex head 3/8s over these tbh and i have both. Got it for $10 or 13 when they where on sale some time ago.

My HF pro 1/4 flex head is very smooth. This night sound dumb but I think it's to smooth. Like it feels as if i used it. It would strip the gears/teeth inside so bc of that i always grab a diff 1/4 lol Idk maybe It's just me.
