Product Information

Full details

This 10-piece Bosch ratchet spanner set is designed for professionals and DIY enthusiasts who need to work in confined spaces. Its primary benefit is the combination of an open-ended and a ratchet spanner in a single tool, featuring a toothless ratchet with a minimal 1-degree backswing angle. A key caveat is that the open-end should be used for high torque applications, not the ratchet mechanism.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

What material are these spanners made from?

The spanners are manufactured from durable chrome vanadium steel, with a hardened bi-hexagonal ring for extra strength.

What is the advantage of the toothless ratchet?

The toothless ratchet requires a backswing angle of less than 1 degree, allowing for effective work in extremely confined spaces where traditional ratchets cannot operate.

Can I use the ratchet for high torque applications?

No, the ratchet mechanism is designed for light and medium torque applications. For high torque applications, the open-end wrench part of the spanner should be used.

What sizes are included in the set?

The set includes common metric sizes: 8, 10, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, and 19 mm.

How do I maintain the spanners?

Clean them with a cloth after use, store them dry in the provided bag, and apply a small amount of light machine oil to the ratchet mechanism if it becomes stiff.

Is this set suitable for automotive repair?

Yes, it is very useful for automotive repair, especially for tasks in tight engine bay areas. However, always use the appropriate side of the tool for the torque required.

Troubleshooting

Ratchet mechanism is stiff or not engaging

Ensure the spanner is clean. Apply a small amount of light machine oil to the ratchet mechanism and work it back and forth. Check for any visible debris preventing engagement.

Spanner slips on bolt/nut head

Verify you are using the correct size spanner for the fastener. Ensure the fastener head is clean and not stripped. For high torque, use the open-ended side of the spanner.

Fabric storage bag shows wear

The fabric bag is designed for protection and organization. If it becomes significantly worn, consider a replacement tool roll or case to protect the spanners.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Space-saving design with combined open-ended and ratchet functions.
  • Extremely low backswing angle allows access in very confined areas.
  • Built with robust chrome vanadium steel for durability.
  • Includes a wide range of frequently used metric sizes.
  • Organized storage and transport with the included roll-up bag.

Cons

  • Ratchet mechanism is best suited for light to medium torque applications; high torque requires the open-end.
  • Not designed for heavy-duty or high-impact torque applications.
  • Requires manual switching between open-end and ratchet modes.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This set requires no assembly. Simply unroll the fabric bag and select the appropriate spanner for your task.

Compatibility: The spanners are designed to fit standard metric nuts and bolts from 8 mm to 19 mm. They are compatible with most light to medium torque fastening applications.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: Wipe down the spanners with a dry or slightly damp cloth after use to remove dirt and grease. Avoid harsh chemicals.
  2. Storage: Store the spanners in the provided roll-up fabric bag to protect them from damage and keep them organized. Ensure the bag is dry before storing to prevent rust.
  3. Lubrication: Periodically inspect the ratchet mechanism. If it feels stiff, a small drop of light machine oil can be applied to the mechanism.
  4. Inspection: Regularly check for any signs of wear or damage on the teeth and the ratchet mechanism.
