GEARWRENCH - ACH 86641 5/16 Ratcheting Wrench

The GEARWRENCH - ACH 86641 is a 5/16" 90T 12-Point Reversible Ratcheting Wrench engineered for precision hand work in automotive and mechanical applications. The 90-tooth ratcheting head provides a minimal swing arc for access in tight spaces while the 12-point profile fits a wide range of fastener geometries. This reversible ratchet design lets technicians change direction quickly without removing the tool from the fastener, reducing job time on repetitive tasks.

Automotive Impact Wrench Applications

While this tool is a manual ratcheting wrench rather than an impact tool, it is designed to complement automotive impact wrench workflows. Use the 12-point profile to start or finish fasteners that were initially loosened or tightened with an impact wrench, or for delicate final torque touch-ups where controlled hand force is preferred. Its compact head and fine-tooth ratchet make it suitable for brake, suspension, and engine bay work.

Compact Impact Wrench Compatibility

The 90T ratchet provides a short swing arc that pairs well with compact impact wrench setups when space is limited. Its slim profile and reversible mechanism offer accessibility in confined areas where a larger impact tool cannot reach. This wrench is intended to be part of a technician’s hand tool kit for situations requiring precision and access rather than high-impact torque.

Professional Impact Wrench And Heavy Duty Considerations

For professional technicians, the 12-point geometry delivers versatility across many fastener types, reducing the need to switch sockets. Although this ratcheting wrench is not an impact-rated tool, it supports heavy-duty service workflows by offering reliable hand control for final adjustments, inspection tasks, and any operation where striking or impact loading is not recommended. Its reversible action and durable construction contribute to consistent performance in daily shop use.

Overall, the GEARWRENCH - ACH 86641 5/16 Ratcheting Wrench is a precision hand tool optimized for tight spaces, versatile fastener engagement, and seamless coordination with impact wrench workflows in automotive and professional settings. Fast shipping.
