Fastener holding, bi-hexagon open jaw and ultra-fine ring ratchet. Depth stop prevents slips over fasteners. Bi-hex, 4 point contact and no jaw flex makes rusted and worn fasteners easier to shift. 80° tooth, ultra fine 4.5° strong ratchet. 4 piece set contains 10, 13, 17 and 19mm. The Joker ratchet wrench spanner is a real revolution in wrench technology. The Joker performs fastening jobs in almost every conceivable situation, quickly and with great precision. Its unique features include a holding function, a limit stop, 30â° return angle for restricted access, anti-slip reinforced jaw and an ultra-fine high torque ratchet end. The holding function means nuts and bolts can be held in the jaw and easily positioned where they are needed. The stop plate holds the nut, eliminating the need to use your thumb as a depth stop. The stop plate also has teeth to grip a locked or broken nut and the jaw has been reinforced to stop any risk of spreading, ensuring easier and safer releasing of the fastener. The double hex jaw allows a 30 degree return angle rather than the 60 degrees a standard offset spanner needs, therefore is ideal in tight spaces. On the ratchet end an ultra-fine 80 tooth mechanism has been designed to also be exceptionally strong allowing high torque transmission capabilities. Made from high-performance chrome-molybdenum steel for strength and high corrosion protection due to the nickel-chrome coating. This also provides a longer service life and high resistance to wear.

Top quality tools, would recommend. Best spanners I’ve used.
Very handy Wera combination wrench set with four useful sizes. German quality at a very competitive price.
High quality as ever from Wera. The rings are not offset, so their use is specific.That is a design feature and not a fault
Very handy to have as contains M6 M8 M10 M12 spanners in one place, the ratchet end has a very fine arc to engage the next tooth, but this doesnt comprise the strength (so far) I have found a good pair for it is the Knipex pliers wrench 250 to hold a nut or bolt head captive, or for some of the m10 flange nuts which are 15mm.
The Racket set was delivered via Hermes,the packaging it came in looked sealed up and ok, upon opening the racket set one of the spanners was missing! E-mailed Toolstation after waiting 30 mins for customer services to answer call(so eventually gave up waiting) heard nothing back via mail etc.In the end had to go into a toolstation branch and order another one and collect myself 2 days later.Very disappointed, not with the product but with Toolstation.
Much easier than conventional spanners, you will not regret getting these quality, well designed, quality spanners.
I like these, they are well made and have performed well for the few times I have used them so far.
Not sure if I will buy an additional set, a 14mm would be handy.
Excellent product, perfect for worktop bolts in tight spots.
This is not a spanner you will use most of the time, the specialist features can be a hindrance to normal quick operation - such as the multi point open end being hard to index, and the ratchet end not pivoting to allow clearance.
But.
if you regularly have to install a nut to a confined space, such as otherwise hard to access open box section, machinery or things like boilers/ HVAC and slacken them off, the retaining pad and fine ratchet really come into play. It also very well made and will handle sometimes unreasonable abuse.
If you need a basic ratchet spanner, this is not for you, but if you find yourself in the business of servicing this will save you frustration again and again - think of it as a useful halfway house between an ratchet and normal box spanner.
Best ratchet spanner I have ever owned. Got me out of a pickle in a tight spot.
The black plastic thing for holding the nut in the open end is just a gimmick IMO.
Used for worktop bolts, brilliant, just allow a couple of mm deeper bolt holes.
Quality tool, should last a long time, well worth it if you like good tools.
Good quality spanner with ratchet. Thoroughly recommended buy. A bit pricey but you get what you pay for.
A must have for bolting kitchen worktops together
Product name is misleading. Although this product is very good a wrenching stuff, its not very good a telling jokes.
Brilliant little wrench. As always Wera is exceptional quality past experience of Wera products tells me that the extra cost is worth it as they last much longer than cheaper alternatives
Excellent Quality ratchet spanner
Dear but when one gets a good quality tool in one's hands it is easy to tell.
The ratchet facility is something I had not encountered before in a spanner - brilliant... I will be getting a full set of these (when I win the lottery or maybe one for christmas for the next ten years!).
I was abit sceptical about buying this spanner because of the price but im glad i did its well worth the money after watching a video about the spanner and its key features im considering buying more or the range
