Compact head options added to ratchet lineup 19 August 2024

Snap-on® has unveiled two new 3/8 inch Drive Dual 80® Technology Soft Grip Ratchets designed to meet the evolving needs of industry professionals.

The new FHCLF72RR Compact Flex Head and the FHC72MPRR Multi-Position Head offer a 3/8 inch drive square housed in a ¼ inch body for use in low torque, limited access applications, such as removing or installing spark plugs. Both tools are designed with soft grip handles for comfort and control with resistance to most shop chemicals.

Engineered with the patented Dual 80® Technology, the FHCLF72RR ratchet features a 72 tooth gear with six teeth in contact, ensuring superior strength and durability. Its flex-head design offers versatility, providing multiple positions for convenient access to work. Also, the sealed head keeps lubricants in and contaminants out, extending the tool's lifespan.

The 3/8 inch Drive Dual 80® Technology Soft Grip Compact Multi-Position Head Ratchet possesses 16 positions across 240 degrees, allowing better access to fasteners around blind corners.
