Innovative holding function for the loss-proof guidance of workpieces 04 September 2024

In the workshop, combination ratchet wrenches serve as essential and versatile tools for tightening and loosening screw connections. GEDORE red presents its new Combination ratchet wrenches fitted with an innovative holding function on the ratchet side to prevent screws and nuts from falling through.

The new Combination ratchet wrenches R072011XX are available in the standard wrench sizes of 10mm, 13mm, 17mm and 19mm. The holding function on the ratchet head holds screws and nuts in place securely, effectively preventing the workpieces from falling or slipping and enabling time savings. The combination ratchet wrench also appeals as a practical alternative for screwing on threaded rods if the structure is too big for a long nut.

The side with the ratchet wrench is angled by 15° which provides more space for the component and promotes safe use, as it reduces the risk of injury due to a collision between the hand and the component to a minimum. The fine-toothed mechanism has 72 teeth, runs smoothly and requires little space thanks to the 5° swing back angle. Additionally, the ratchet is easy to set to clockwise and anticlockwise rotation by means of a lever.
