Stubby Ratchet Wrench, 16mm, Mirror Finish
Brief Overview
This 16mm stubby ratchet wrench combines space-saving design with dual functionality, delivering both open-end and box-end ratcheting capability in a single, compact tool. Built with a mirror-polished chrome finish, it's engineered for precision work in confined spaces where standard-length wrenches won't fit. The short profile makes it an essential addition to any professional toolkit, particularly for automotive assembly, machinery maintenance, and mechanical work requiring access to tight fastening points. For those seeking alternative sizes, complementary options include the 12mm compact ratchet wrench and 17mm variant for broader coverage across fastener ranges.
