The VIM Tools HBR12 Pivoting Ratchet is designed for maximum access and versatility in tight or obstructed areas. It works with all 1/4 inch hex bits and 1/4 inch drive sockets, making it suitable for a wide range of fastening tasks. One end remains fixed while the other pivots 180 degrees to improve access around obstacles. The low profile head allows reach into recessed areas, and the quick disk enables rapid turning when ratcheting is not needed. A reversible 72 tooth gear requires only 2 degrees of movement for precise control. Constructed from polished chrome, heat treated alloy steel, the HBR12 delivers durability and reliable performance for professional technicians.
