Ratchet Wrench AWTOOLS AW39938 Weight 8.2 kg

The AWTOOLS AW39938 ratchet wrench is a heavy-duty hand tool designed for efficient fastening and loosening of nuts and bolts in workshop and field environments. Made of chrome-vanadium (CrV) tool steel, drop forged, hardened and tempered with a satin finish, it combines strength and corrosion resistance. The tool integrates an open-ended spanner on one end and a ring spanner with a 72-tooth ratchet mechanism on the other, providing a 5° swing arc for precise incremental movement. A flex head improves accessibility in tight or angled spaces. The set is supplied in a compact aluminium storage case for safe transport and organised storage.

Advantages

The combination of CrV steel and drop forging delivers high mechanical strength and wear resistance, while heat treatment ensures durability under repeated use. The 72-tooth ratchet with a 5° swing arc allows fine control when working in confined areas, reducing the need for large handle movements. A flex head offers additional reach and angle flexibility, and clear size markings enable quick identification of the correct tool. The aluminium case protects the wrench during transport and keeps components organised.

How to use

Select the appropriate size by checking the clear size markings and position the open or ring end on the fastener. Use the ring end with the ratchet mechanism when working in confined spaces or when repetitive turning is required; the 72-tooth ratchet enables small incremental movements with a 5° swing arc. The flex head allows angling the working end to reach fasteners at awkward angles. Apply steady force and avoid sudden impacts to the handle to maintain tool life. After use, wipe the wrench clean and return it to the aluminium storage case to protect the finish and components.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment such as gloves and eye protection when working with the wrench. Do not use the tool as a hammer or pry bar. For best performance, keep the ratchet mechanism free of debris and periodically lubricate moving parts according to general tool maintenance practices. Store the wrench dry in the supplied aluminium case to minimise corrosion and preserve the satin finish.
