1/2-Inch Drive Pneumatic Ratchet Wrench, 160 Nm Maximum Torque
Brief Overview
This 1/2-inch pneumatic ratchet wrench represents the flagship model in the air ratchet line, engineered for demanding fastening operations where power and speed matter. At 160 Nm maximum torque with a working range of 0–110 Nm, it handles the toughest bolt-running applications—particularly well-suited for tractor blade assembly and other heavy agricultural or industrial fastening. For operations requiring verified torque application, consider pairing this tool with a complementary precision torque wrench in the 40–220 Nm range to validate critical joints.

Application Context
This ratchet excels at running fasteners on medium-to-large assemblies where speed and power are essential—tractor blade bolts, trailer frame fastening, industrial machinery mounts. The 0–110 Nm working range keeps operators in safe territory for most fastening, while the 160 Nm maximum handles occasional heavy resistance. At 140 r.p.m., it balances productivity with control; faster than hand tools, slower than full-speed impact tools.
