XL Ratcheting Wrenches

The "XL" line features seven different styles of ratcheting wrenches. The series features longer, stronger versions of existing ratcheting wrenches:

  • XL Combination: Up to a 25 percent longer beam length to access hard-to-reach fasteners. The open-end Surface Drive Plus™ design reduces fastener rounding and delivers up to 25 percent more torque
  • XL X-Beam: The X-Beam ratcheting wrench offers a unique ergonomically designed handle to reduce hand fatigue and enable users to apply more torque without discomfort. As with all GearWrench ratcheting wrenches, the ratcheting box-end needs as little as five degrees to move fasteners. The X-Beam is the first hand tool to receive a commendation from the American Arthritis Foundation for its Ease-of-Use program
  • XL X-Beam Reversible: The easy-to-use reversing lever allows the user to change direction without removing the tool from the fastener
  • XL X-Beam Flex: The 180-degree flex head action allows for greater access in hard to reach places.
  • XL Locking Flex: Flexible head ratcheting wrench that is 15 percent longer than traditional flex head wrenches with 13 locking positions and one-finger lever operation for efficiency
  • XL GearBox: Zero degree offset box-end and slim profile design to access the tightest spaces and recessed fasteners. Longer beam length increases leverage to maximize torque for breaking loose stubborn fasteners
  • XL Spline: A new ratcheting wrench that works on six different types of fasteners including; spline, six-point, six-point rounded, twelve-point, square, and E-Torx®
