Super-slim, flexi-head ratchet

You can see the fastener but you know you can’t get a socket or driver bit onto it without dismantling half the engine? This super-slim flexi-head ratchet from Laser (part number 6744) is the answer. One end has a standard ¼in square drive and the other a ¼in bit driver – both heads are reversible and lockable, plus they can swivel through a full 180º at the press of the button and lock into the required position. The fully-polished 300mm ratchet handle is slim enough to access difficult areas, while the tool is beautifully balanced and fitted with a smooth ratchet mechanism.

The Laser super-slim flexi-head ratchet has a typical price of £44.86.
