Draper Expert Hi Torq Reversible Ratchet Combination Spanner

This 18mm Draper Expert HI-TORQ® metric reversible ratchet combination spanner is ideally sized for larger automotive fasteners, particularly wheel nuts on various vehicle types, as well as heavy-duty machinery components and industrial equipment assemblies. The 18mm dimension is commonly encountered in commercial vehicle applications and larger passenger cars, making this spanner essential for comprehensive professional workshop operations. Manufactured from hardened and tempered chrome vanadium steel with protective black electroplating, this tool delivers exceptional strength and corrosion resistance for reliable performance under demanding conditions. The sophisticated 100-tooth ratchet mechanism provides remarkably fine 3.6° movement, allowing effective operation in restricted access locations where standard ratchets would require impractical arc swing to function effectively. The 12-point HI-TORQ® ring end employs advanced fastener engagement technology, gripping the flats rather than the corners to spread load evenly across the fastener surface. This innovative approach transmits greater torque whilst preventing the rounding damage associated with corner-loading, ensuring fastener integrity is maintained even during high-torque applications. The 15° angled open end provides enhanced accessibility when working around obstructions, whilst the reversible ratchet feature enables instant direction changes, significantly improving efficiency during repetitive operations.
