For cramped spaces or lengthy jobs, air ratchets are the perfect tool. Their small size and low-torque operation makes air ratchets comfortable and easy to use. Our selection of pneumatic ratchet wrenches will help speed up a variety of fastening jobs, whether you're a professional mechanic or working on home projects.
What's the difference between an air impact wrench and an air impact ratchet?
Air ratchet wrenches are smaller, quieter, use less air per minute, spin faster, and deliver less torque than air impact wrenches. Air ratchets also replace the pistol grip and trigger of an impact wrench with a lever, making them easier to use in tight spaces.
When can I use an air ratchet?
You can use air ratchets for nearly any fastener that isn't rusted in pace, because they have lower torque power means you can use them with regular sockets. Due to their smaller size, air ratchets are easy to use in awkward or small spaces where swinging a hand ratchet wrench is tricky.
What features should I look for in an air ratchet?
Size and weight are two important features to consider that can make an air ratchet more comfortable or maneuverable for longer jobs. Max power, RPM, and air consumption are also important to keep in mind as they determine what size of air compressor you'll need.
