Astro Tool93812 Nano Ratchet - 3/8" Drive Head in 1/4" Ratchet Body Long

Absolutely LOVE this ratchet for its compactness and longer handle for better leverage!! Works very well for tight spaces with a very strong build quality. I definitely appreciate and recommend this product for quality AND price. Snap-on/Mac Tools eat ur heart out lol!!

Feels great , size of a 1/4" small ratchet with 3/8 head for 3/8 sockets great for tight places like a Subaru spark plug replacement. Would recommend. Way less expensive than the tool trucks.

Heavy-duty tool with a "low profile" design. I plan on using it to change spark plugs on my 2018 outback.

This ratchet is F’n nice! I have a drawer full of “truck brand” and other high quality ratchets that I paid literally 10x as much for. This little thing is every bit as nice and every bit as useful. The gear set is super smooth, the head is TINY and the chrome is like jewelry. Outstanding value for a very unique design that fits in a lot of places.Be realistic about what you use it for though, this isn’t a breaker bar, it has a very unique design for unique tasks.

This is a great little ratchet for the money. I TRIED to break it. I really did. Nothing phased it, not even when I put a cheater bar on it. That alone makes it good in my book. The handle is long and thin and the head is on the small side for a cheaper 3/8" ratchet. The only thing that would improve this ratchet in my opinion is if the ratcheting mechanism were a bit smoother/finer. It was sort of rough right out of the box, but I lubricated it and things smoothed out to an acceptable level. For the price, it's a great tool.

This is very close to a 1/4” ratchet in its outline, works well for right spaces. My GW 1/4 ratchet is sane outline but slimmer so it’s better for super tight spaces but this is a close second. Impressed by Astro. Will buy more of their stuff for sure. Only thing is add some oil to make it smoother, but careful with the clip it flies out easy! Lol.

I work in industrial maintenance and primarily use this as a back-up ratchet. That said, it gets used a lot with a 17mm shallow socket in a certain cramped area and absolutely shines. The fit and finish make it feel like a far more premium product than the price suggests and it is exceptionally sturdy in use. Haven't had it slip once. Feels great in the hand too.

Head size of the 3/8 drive Astro ratchet is slightly smaller than the 1/4 tekton rachets I have. It is not nearly as small as the Tone Compact 3/8 Head Ratchet I also bought for this task. The Astro has a much longer handle. I think around 12 inches. It should be a nice size for changing spark plugs on a Subaru BRZ. Not a lot of space for this task. If the head size was just a little smaller it would be perfect. The Tone has the really small head size, but the Astro has the better length. It looks to be well made.
