Titan Tools 12073 1/2-Inch Drive Extendable Ratchet - Multi-Colour

Good solid and heavy duty tool. Highly recommended.

Looks to be of good quality and works well. The price and tool size are good. I should have bought one a long time ago, very handy to have for the DIY’er

Ease of use

I dislike how its rotation selector is the opposite to ALL my tools. To be fair, ALL my current tools are australian made and this one is from Taiwan. Maybe they have different standards for tool production. Also, the handle is not that strong and wears out very quick.

I like this ratchet for the money. It is a very functional tool due to the ability to extend out for extra length. It makes changing a tire very easy, with the right tools. I haven't used it a ton yet but from the little I have I think it should hold up well. Titan seems to be making good tools.

To sum up the ratchet quickly without reading the whole review.. It's one of my favorite tools and is used daily in an auto shop. Honestly other than scuffs and grease, it works just like it did when it was new. A more indepth review..... I work as an auto mechanic full time in a relatively fast paced shop. I generally use this tool every day on multiple jobs, and through all the use it gets, it still feels and works like new. When I bought this tool I figured it would last me a few months until I saved up enough money for a snap on, matco, or some other name brand ratchet which can be big $. I bought this tool in December of 2022 and other than weekends and holidays it has pretty much been used almost every day on some job. The extendable part of the ratchet is still tight and locks, and the ratchet mechanism is still very smooth in both directions. I think most of us wrench turners have experienced a ratchet skip a tooth, (or several) under a heavy force trying to loosen a bolt, only to smash your hand into something, lose your balance, or worse.. To be honest I have absolutely no worries about that happening even after all the use. I have jumped on this a few times to loosen bolts that were siezed, and have dropped it countless times. It also been exposed to most fluids you will encounter working on vehicles. I have found that the extendable feature is very convenient, I think of it like multiple ratchets in one. I have enough faith in this ratchet that I still haven't bought a name brand replacement to sum it all up.
