AIRCATPneumatic Tools 807: Mini Palm Ratchet 300 RPM, 35 ft-lbs Maximum Torque - 3/8-Inch

This little ratchet is one of my most-used work tools, and an incredibly strong contender for best $100 tool i own. Its incredibly quiet for an air tool, small enough to slip in pretty much anywhere, and has enough torque to be usefulQuick note on the torque, this will put out enough to be useful, but not much. Ill believe that its the rated 30ft/lbs, but not an inch more. If youre needing to break bolt free, look elsewhere, this is the tool you grab when you want to run a bolt down without giving yourself carpal tunnel by swinging a ratchet

Work

Very handy size

The volume of this little tiny thing is nuts! I love the way it feels and it’s powerful. The trigger is sensitive too and maybe because it’s new still. Trigger is multi speed but for goodness sake it will run on you if you not careful, better not try running in little bolts or mind as well call those a done deal and you for extra labor working for free. It will snap a bolt like a twig.I mean I don’t know what to say, I name my tools and this is my “dirty dog”. I have the Oynx 1/2” impact and that’s my nasty dog! Hahaha. Get this dog, it’ll do you right I assure that.

Awesome air tool

I bought this for tight spots on a WRX. I took the engine out. My full size air ratchet would not fit into the places this tool fit. It's small and has plenty of power. You don't get the leverage as you do with the full size ratchet, not a deal breaker.

I love my new little 3/8" Air Ratchet by AirCat. This thing is small and compact, fits into the tightest areas. One of the most important features is how firmly sockets and extensions fit without the fear of losing a socket into the deep dark bilges of an engine block with exposed voids anyone would absolutely fear to occur such as while replacing an HPOP on a Power Stroke Diesel. And it has enough power to break torques on any 8, 10 and 12mm bolts ford on Ford vehicles. Wish I would have bought this years ago, except I believe its fairly new air ratchet.

For the Money it a good, but extremely loud!

With a swivel air connector attachment this thing is a beast in hard to reach places. I’ve also dropped it many times and it’s never affected it. Very useful tool. More powerful than my Milwaukee M12 high speed ratchet as well. Whenever it can’t get in a spot this is what I grab. Be careful as it will chuck your hand when tightening or loosening tho. It’s very fast spinning. My only complaint is that sometimes it’s not as fast as other times, almost like air is leaking by or something. Usually oiling the tool with air tool oil helps but not always. Otherwise l love this little thing.

Obviously it is not going to be as powerful as a larger impact tool, BUT it's compact size and light weight make it a very useful little air ratchet. I bought it for jobs where the access is very limited - struggling to get a spanner or hand ratchet to do the job with limited freedom of movement. With this little air ratchet the job is so much easier!I've only used it for a short while so I can't comment on reliability, although it is now a firm favourite so I can't imagine that I wouldn't replace it if it fails in the future.

Nice and stubby. It is nice that it is light torque so it's suitable for dash or inner splash guard bolts. However that is also kind of it's one drawback, it doesn't have adjustment for higher torque. However it fits my needs in a professional Auto Repair Shop and I've also got the High Impact 3/8 Gun. Both quality tools. You can feel the difference in quality between cheap air tools and these higher end ones.

Worked great for a week then motor seized up, just blows air. Seller responded quickly for the return but not when asked when a replacement could get sent out. I need this for my work so it’s frustrating.

works very well
