Professional Ratchet for Mechanics
Klein Tools 65820 is a 1/2-inch drive hand ratchet forged from alloy steel with a durable chrome-plated finish. The 10-inch length provides solid leverage for automotive and maintenance tasks. A 72-tooth round head and classic dial switch allow quick direction changes. Corrosion-resistant construction supports long service life in professional environments.
Suited for Daily Workshop Use
This ratchet fits technicians who need a reliable 1/2-inch drive tool for general fastener work. The forged alloy steel body withstands repeated torque cycles.

The 72 geared teeth inside the round head deliver fine incremental engagement for efficient tightening and loosening. Male square 1/2-inch drive accepts standard impact and chrome sockets. Overall length is 10-1/2 inches (267 mm). California Proposition 65 warnings apply for cancer and reproductive harm.
