Gearwrench 85988 72-tooth Double Box Ratcheting Metric Wrench Set

Product Description

The GEARWRENCH 85988 is a 12-piece XL double box end ratcheting wrench set in metric sizes, built for professional technicians who need speed and torque in tight spaces. The 72-tooth ratcheting mechanism requires as little as 5 degrees of arc swing to advance the fastener, compared to 30 degrees for a standard box end wrench. Both ends feature a 12-point design with off-corner loading geometry that improves box end strength while reducing the risk of rounding fasteners. The wrenches are constructed from alloy steel with a full polish chrome finish for corrosion resistance and long service life.

This set is suited for automotive, heavy equipment, fleet maintenance, and general mechanical work where metric fasteners are standard. The extra-long pattern length gives the mechanic significant leverage for breaking loose stubborn or corroded fasteners, while the ratcheting end speeds up the run-down once the fastener is free. The set includes one wrench in each of the following sizes: 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, and 19mm. Both ends on every wrench are ratcheting 12-point box ends, making this a true double box ratcheting configuration with no open end.

Compatibility

Designed for use with metric fasteners ranging from 8mm to 19mm. Suitable for automotive, industrial, and mechanical applications requiring a double box ratcheting wrench in an extra-long format.

Installation Notes

These wrenches are intended for use by qualified mechanics and technicians. Always ensure the correct wrench size is fully seated on the fastener before applying torque to avoid slippage or fastener damage. Do not use extensions or pipe cheater bars on ratcheting wrench handles, as this can exceed the tool's rated load and damage the ratcheting mechanism. Inspect the ratchet action before each use and keep the mechanism clean and free of debris.
