OTC H-160 Flex Ratchet

[Rigmaster]

Picked this up today at one of the local fleas. This was by far the coolest thing I saw/bought today. Owatonna Tool Co #H-160. Alloy Artifacts has a pic of this same ratchet, without the 1/2 square drive in place.

Anyone interested in this one will have to fight my heirs for it at my estate sale....

Going to bump this super old post. I found one of these today. Can you take the head apart and service them? It could use a good cleaning and oiling.

Like many old push through ratchets these aren't serviceable, but you can give it a good soak to clean it up and get some of the dirt out.
