Hex Drive Mini Flex Head Bit Ratchet is a hand ratchet built for one job: getting a turning motion into places a standard-length ratchet simply can't reach. This is a mini ratchet designed for tight, obstructed fastening work under dashboards, behind intake manifolds, and inside electrical panels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA 4° arc swing lets you crack and drive fasteners in spaces barely wider than the ratchet head, while the free-flexing, 7-position locking head adapts to whatever angle the job throws at you. Leave it loose for blind, by-feel work, or click it into a fixed position when you need positive, repeatable engagement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 90-tooth gearing keeps each swing short, so you're not fighting for clearance every time you reposition. A slim profile head and flush directional and locking levers mean this bit ratchet doesn't add bulk to an already cramped work area — nothing sticks out to catch on hoses, wiring, or sheet metal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery surface is chrome plated for corrosion resistance, and like every Milwaukee Mechanics Hand Tool, this flex head ratchet is backed by a Lifetime Guarantee.
