SP Air Air Ratchets & Impact Tools
SP Air Air Ratchets, Impact Ratchets, and Impact Drivers
SP Air built its reputation in auto shops with compact pneumatic ratchets, and this collection covers that core lineup. The SP-1765HD is a 3/8-in. super fast mini impact ratchet, one of SP Air's best sellers. The SP-7260 is a 1/4-in. sealed flat head mini ratchet, and the SP-7260RP, "The Perfect" impact ratchet, adds impact action in a 1/4-in. drive. For larger fasteners, the SP-7780 is a 3/8-in. heavy-duty sealed flat head ratchet wrench in a short version. The SP-8102BU rounds it out as a 1/4-in. hex pneumatic impact driver.
What to Look For
- Drive size. 1/4-in. ratchets fit tight engine bays and small fasteners. 3/8-in. models handle bigger bolts.
- Ratchet or impact ratchet. A standard air ratchet spins fasteners fast. An impact ratchet adds hammering action to break loose stubborn bolts.
- Head profile. Flat head and short versions reach into spaces a standard ratchet will not fit.
- Hex driver. The 1/4-in. hex impact driver takes hex-shank bits for screws and small fasteners.

SP Air Air Ratchets FAQ
What is the difference between an air ratchet and an impact ratchet?
An air ratchet spins a fastener quickly once it is broken loose. An impact ratchet adds a hammer mechanism that delivers rotational blows, so it can loosen fasteners that a standard air ratchet would stall on.
What warranty comes with SP Air tools?
SP Air lists a 1-year warranty on its pneumatic tools. Warranty service and repairs are handled by SP Air USA in Long Beach, California. Keep your receipt as proof of purchase.
