New Snap-on Round Head Ratchet

The new Snap-on 3/8-inch 100-tooth round head ratchet (FHNF100) is the perfect ratchet for the professional who uses it everyday in the bay or for the do-it-yourselfer who works on his car on the weekend. 
            “The new Snap-on round head ratchet is the perfect ratchet whether you are a weekend DIYer or whether you use Snap-on tools to make a living,” said Mark Knapp, product manager for Snap-on. “The swivel head offers the ability to angle the ratchet to get at even the most difficult-to-reach fasteners and the 100-tooth gear provides an ultra low 3.6 degrees of swing arc to engage in the next tooth in the smallest space possible.” 
            The Snap-on 3/8-inch drive swivel round head ratchet (FHNF100) features and benefits include:
  • Swivel head which offers a variety of ratcheting positions including “straight on” for use as a ratcheting nut driver
  • Round head is compact to get in tight quarters and features more gear teeth than the pear head design – increased tooth swing equals lower swing arc, so there is shorter movement between each tooth engagement
  • Adjustable detent for swivel allows user to adjust for tighter or looser swivel
  • Comfort grip handle delivers comfort with style and resists most shop chemicals
