Gearwrench 81027 1/4-Drive Gimbal Ratchet
Gearwrench 81027 is a blue 1/4-inch-drive gimbal ratchet with a pivoting design that moves in two directions. Its 72-tooth mechanism has a listed 5-degree swing arc. The anodized-aluminum finish and blue drive-size identification distinguish the compact tool. Choose it for the available hand and socket clearance rather than assuming the pivoting body provides the reach of a long-handle ratchet.
