FAQs

What is the benefit of the 72-tooth ratchet?

The 72-tooth ratchet allows the spanner to work in 5-degree increments, which is essential in tight spaces.

What materials is the spanner made of?

The spanner is manufactured from chrome vanadium steel for strength and durability.

Can I use this spanner for high-torque applications?

The spanner is designed for general use, but its size might be limiting. For extremely high-torque applications, consider a different type of tool or a larger size.

How do I reverse the ratchet direction?

The reversible ratchet can be turned 180 degrees. Look for a switch or lever near the ratchet head to change direction.

What does 'bi-hex' mean?

Bi-hex refers to the 12-sided head design, which provides a solid grip on nuts and bolts.

How do I clean the spanner?

Wipe the spanner clean with a dry cloth after each use. For tougher grime, use a degreaser and a brush, then wipe dry.

Is there a warranty?

Refer to the product packaging for warranty information.

Troubleshooting

Ratchet mechanism slips or fails to engage.

Check for debris in the ratchet head. Clean and lubricate if necessary. If the issue persists, the tool may be worn and need replacement.

Rust or corrosion appears on the surface.

Use a rust remover and a wire brush to clean the surface. Apply a protective coating after cleaning.
