The Pass-Thru socket and GearRatchet ratchet system by GEARWRENCH was designed to improve productivity and access on every job. GearRatchet ratchets need as little as 5° to move fasteners vs. 30° for standard wrenches and are 40% stronger than standard ratchets by eliminating the drive tang. The ratchets are up to 50% thinner than standard ratchets, providing superior access to even the most hard-to-reach fasteners. Pass-Thru sockets are a thin wall design, replacing the need for deep well sockets as they loosen and drive nuts on bolts of any length. The Pass-Thru sockets integrate into the GearRatchet handle, reducing overall height and increasing torque strength. The adapter allows for the use of standard sockets and drive tools.
