3/8-Inch Drive 72-Tooth Pear Head Ratchet
The Westward 440G14 is a 3/8-inch drive hand ratchet with a pear-shaped head and 72 geared teeth. It measures 9-5/8 inches in overall length and is built from alloy steel for durability. A flex-head design allows the head to pivot, and a reversible mechanism lets you switch tightening direction quickly. The tool is sold new and carries California Proposition 65 warnings for cancer and reproductive harm.
Suitable Applications and Limitations
This ratchet suits mechanics and DIYers who need a 3/8-inch drive tool with fine tooth engagement for work in confined spaces. The flex head helps reach fasteners at awkward angles. Buyers who need a larger drive size such as 1/2-inch, a longer handle for extra leverage, or a non-flex fixed-head design should look at other options. The Proposition 65 notices may also be a consideration for some purchasers.
72-Tooth Gear Count Decides Fit
The 72-tooth gear count is the specification that determines whether this ratchet matches the job. It provides a fine increment between clicks, which is useful when swing room is limited. If a coarser or finer tooth count is required, a different ratchet will be needed.
Highlights
- 3/8" drive fits common sockets

Questions about this item
What drive size does the 440G14 ratchet use?
The 440G14 has a 3/8 in drive, which is the standard size for many automotive and general-purpose sockets.
How does the 72-tooth mechanism affect use in tight spots?
With 72 geared teeth the ratchet needs only a 5-degree swing to engage the next tooth, letting you turn fasteners where a full swing is impossible.
What does the pear-head style mean for socket access?
The pear-shaped head keeps the profile low so the ratchet fits into shallower recesses while still housing the 72-tooth gear mechanism.
