Tool Guide

Find the Right Tool

Three quick choices can help you match a ratchet or set to the job. Start with the space you have, the fasteners you need to reach, and whether you need one tool or a complete kit.

1. 90, 100 or 120 teeth?

More teeth generally mean a smaller swing angle. Choose finer engagement when the handle has little room to move. For open access and everyday work, compare handle length, grip, drive size, and head design as well as tooth count.

2. Fixed or flex head?

A flex head reaches around obstructions and into awkward angles. A fixed head keeps a consistent working angle when direct access is available. Choose based on the space around the fastener and how much control you need.

3. Single tool or set?

Pick a single size for a specific task or to replace a missing tool. Choose a set when you want wider size coverage and organized storage for repeated work.
