Now this is another interesting device from Laser Tools. The problem to solve: a fastener buried deep in the engine bay. It may be a pulley securing nut, a water pump mounting bolt or an A/C compressor adjustor. You may just be able to get a spanner on, but there’s definitely no room for a ratchet handle if you want to remove the fastener quickly. Reach for this new extension ratchet. It’s 340mm long and enables you to remotely ratchet off the fastener, using either a 3/8\" or 1/4\" drive ratchet handle. Its length and super-slim profile lets you get down there and straight onto the fastener. You don’t need any room to move the extension ratchet — it stays still while you attach a ratchet handle to the free end and spin off the fastener. Inside is a smooth and durable chain that transmits the drive from the ratchet handle straight down to the fastener. And it’s tough — you can apply a maximum torque of 130Nm using the 3/8\" drive. You’ll wonder how you did without it! 3/8\" drive at one end and 1/4\" drive at the other. Use whatever combination or ratchet handle and socket size that works best. Each drive has an easily removable adaptor to take a socket or bit driver. Remove the adaptor to attach the ratchet handle, pop the adaptor back in to take a socket or bit driver.
