Gearwrench 81267T 3/8 in Flex Head Ratchet 90 Tooth Teardrop

Product Description

The GEARWRENCH 81267T is a 3/8 inch drive flex-head ratchet built for professional mechanics and trade technicians who need access in tight or awkward spaces. The teardrop-shaped head pivots to provide a flexible working angle, and the 90-tooth gear mechanism delivers a minimum arc swing of 4 degrees — making it usable in confined fastener locations where a standard ratchet cannot complete a full stroke. The chrome-plated alloy steel construction provides corrosion resistance for shop and field use. Overall length is 13 inches, giving adequate leverage for most standard fastener applications. This tool meets ASME B107.10 specifications for ratchets.

The 81267T is suited for automotive, HVAC, plumbing, and general mechanical service work where 3/8 inch drive tooling is the standard. The flex head is particularly useful when working around engine components, tight equipment panels, or mechanical assemblies where fastener access is limited. The 90-tooth count means each click advances the drive just 4 degrees, allowing the technician to work in spaces that would stop a lower-tooth-count ratchet. It is a hand tool for any technician running a 3/8 inch drive socket set.

Installation Notes

No power disconnection or system shutdown is required for this hand tool. Inspect the ratchet mechanism and flex joint before each use to confirm smooth operation and no signs of cracking or wear. Do not use extension bars or cheater pipes to increase torque beyond the tool rating. When servicing live mechanical systems, follow all applicable lockout and tagout procedures before applying fastener torque.
