Sounds like he could use a Wera Koloss, the ugliest ratchet known to man.I've resisted using mine as a a hammer, though I did find a fitter I worked with "persuading" something with it once. He did get an earful!
Ha ha I'll show the ham fisted scrote that!!Sounds like he could use a Wera Koloss, the ugliest ratchet known to man.
Made to hammer things with, it also has a spike that fits in the handle to align holes.
90 deg on 3/4 whit is some stretch bolt
I do like the scaffold pole as well
I have one of those Britool 3/4 drive ratchets in the pic, its starting to slip now and again(had it since Nelson was a cadet)its riveted together, is it passed redemption.These are the parts im talking about -

If man made it man can take it apart, in the other photo it appears to be screwed togetherI have one of those Britool 3/4 drive ratchets in the pic, its starting to slip now and again(had it since Nelson was a cadet)its riveted together, is it passed redemption.

Like oil refineries. I have a 36" 1" drive that i found in a steel scrap hopper and brought back to life...BobSadly there are a lot of places your not allowed to use heat, bring on the cheater bars!
Well it's reasonable to assume that if a ratchet has many 'clicks' it's teeth are small and if it has few clicks the teeth will be large. Assuming a single pawl engaging the ratchet, the more clicks the weaker the ratchet, but the more convenient to use in confined spacesNumber of clicks has zero influence of strength. Purely how well the tool is made is how strong it is.
Loosing and final tightening of nuts and bolts is fine with a ratchet within reason. All it means is it won't last forever. If you want it to last forever don't do it. Mind you it does cause a hell of a issue in using a click torque wrench
