## Description

Bitholding screwdriver with intuitive ratchet functionality. The ratchet mechanism with fine toothing integrated in the handle (36 teeth/return angle 10°) eases and accelerates screwdriving without having to reposition the tool. Turning the tool speeds up work. The ratchet mechanism completely embedded in the handle ensures very handy and effortless work. Ergonomic switching to clockwise/counterclockwise or position 0. Kraftform Plus handle for ergonomic screwdriving, avoiding blisters and calluses. Magnetic bitholding screwdriver for bits with 1/4" external hexagon drive as per DIN ISO 1173-C 6.3 and E 6.3 (ISO 1173). The Rapidaptor quick-release chuck allows lightning-fast bit changes without any extra tools. The strong permanent magnet holds the bits firmly. 1/4" x 123.5 mm

Review: Perfect Bit Driver! - Compact, light, smooth ratcheting mechanism, durable, and just feels good in the hand. What I love most about it is the selector switch that you turn in the direction that you will be twisting the bit. All ratcheting screwdrivers should do this. Definitely worth the few extra bucks over the big box brands.
Review: Exceptionally well made tool - This tool offers the essential fuction of a hex-bit driver, but spices up the swagger with an easy-to-swap ratchet mechanism giving the user the ability to drive or reverse screws with nothing more than a deft flick of the wrist. The quick-release bit holder keeps bits secure due to the detent collar and precision fit. The benefit being that no driver bits will become lodged in the screw and pop free only to drop to the bottom of some dark hole while you're working. The ergonomics of the tool are top-notch. It's easy to hold, and when you need to put the extra gronk onto something, it's grippy, comfortable, and lightweight. Because it trends toward the precision end of the hand-tool spectrum, it has a fine-tooth ratchet mechanism to help drive even the most fine-pitched fasteners with speed and accuracy. There is no on-tool bit storage or storage case. This tool is intended to sit in the top drawer with the tools held only in the highest regard.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ One of the best
*by M***O on March 13, 2025*

Very low back drag! Ratchet direction selector goes the right way. Easy to swap bits but good lock when it's in. It's the only bit lock that I like. I can't stand the others I have. Only negative is that it's a fairly small handle size. Same as their electrical handle one that I have (non ratcheting version). It's just too thin to get a lot of torque. So personally I wrapped it in silicone tape to increase it in size similar to the next size up of Wera handles. See photo. I did a terrible job with the tape but other than being messy-looking it's now so much more grippy and I'm able to transfer so much more torque. I wish this had a PB Swiss Grip handle. 😭 Unfortunately the PB Swiss ones have super strong back drag in the mechanism. Wera do make one with a thicker handle but not with the same ratcheting mechanism as far as I knew. But it's possible I would have been happier with the larger 60 RA model for my uses. I like the Zyklop models that can tilt the head but I find the ratchet on them too stiff. For now this is an awesome tool.
