Gearwrench 86117 17mm 120XP XL Flex GearBox Wrench
Gearwrench 86117 combines a 17mm working size, extra-long beam and flexible ratcheting head. Its 120XP mechanism provides 120 engagement positions with a listed 3-degree swing arc. A fixed, non-ratcheting end has 0-degree offset, giving the two ends distinct roles when access and approach angle matter.
Specifications and included details

Before ordering
Confirm head clearance and the fastener profile. The described spline drive covers several profiles, but that does not mean one 17mm opening fits arbitrary sizes. No exact beam length or torque limit is supplied.
Product questions and answers
Are there 120 physical gear teeth?
The description identifies two stacked 60-tooth pawls and 120 engagement positions; these are different counts.
Are both ends ratcheting?
No. One end is explicitly described as non-ratcheting.
Does flexible mean the head locks into position?
A locking mechanism is not specified; do not assume one.
