The draper 3 8 drive 72 tooth reversible ratchet is a professional-grade hand tool designed for fastening applications across automotive, engineering and general mechanical work. Forged from chrome vanadium steel and heat-treated through hardening and tempering processes, this ratchet combines durability with a refined satin finish that resists corrosion. The 72 tooth mechanism requires just 5 degrees of arc swing to operate, making this ratchet particularly suitable for working in confined spaces where handle movement is restricted. A lever-operated forward and reverse selector allows quick direction changes, whilst the quick release mechanism enables rapid socket changes to maintain workflow efficiency. Socket retention is provided by a spring-loaded ball bearing system that holds sockets securely on the 3 8 square drive during use. This standard drive size is compatible with the extensive range of 3 8 sockets commonly used for medium-duty applications, making it an ideal addition to professional tool kits for motor mechanics, plant engineers and maintenance contractors. Features and benefits: made from hardened and tempered chrome vanadium steel for long-term durability 72 tooth mechanism allows operation in tight spaces with minimal swing arc lever forward reverse selector for quick directional changes quick release mechanism for rapid socket changes spring-loaded ball bearing provides secure socket retention contents: 1 x 72 tooth reversible ratchet, 3 8 sq.
