Full details

Featuring a reversible ratcheting mechanism and a 15-degree angled ring head, it delivers high-efficiency fastening, though it is exclusively designed for metric hardware, limiting its utility in specialized imperial-based applications.

FAQs

Can I use this spanner on imperial bolts?

No, the Facom 467BR series is precision-engineered specifically for metric fasteners.

Does the wrench come in different sizes?

Yes, the series includes multiple sizes ranging from 8mm to 18mm.

Is the ratcheting direction reversible?

Yes, the 467BR series features an integrated mechanism for reversing the ratcheting direction.

How do I maintain the finish?

Wipe with a clean, dry cloth after each use. For stubborn grime, use a mild degreaser and dry immediately.

What is the benefit of the 15-degree angle?

The angle provides necessary clearance for your hands when working on flat surfaces or recessed areas.

Troubleshooting

The ratcheting mechanism feels stiff or stuck

Clear any accumulated debris using compressed air and apply a drop of light machine oil into the mechanism.

Tool slips on the fastener head

Verify that you are using the correct metric size and that the wrench is seated fully flush against the bolt.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Extremely smooth ratcheting action for fast operation
  • Low arc swing is ideal for restricted spaces
  • Robust construction ensures long service life
  • Ergonomic handle design reduces hand fatigue

Cons

  • Not suitable for imperial (SAE) fasteners
  • Higher price point compared to standard non-ratcheting wrenches
  • Requires proper care to prevent debris in the mechanism

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These spanners are designed for direct use with metric-sized nuts and bolts. To ensure longevity, keep the ratcheting mechanism clean by wiping away oil, dust, and metal shavings after use. Avoid using a cheater bar or excessive leverage beyond the tool's rating, as this can damage the internal pawl mechanism. Store the tools in a dry, organized toolbox tray to prevent surface oxidation and accidental drops.
