Ingersoll Rand’s Titanium “Flathead” Air Ratchet
By Chuck Cage
With a thinner head, the “Flathead” lets you bring air ratchet goodness to projects where you’d normally be stuck wearing out your arms wrenching because your standard air ratchet simply won’t fit.
A composite grip separates your hand from the chill of compressed air, and the Flathead’s titanium head makes it one of the lightest and most balanced air ratchets around. Ingersoll Rand also says that moving the forward/reverse switch off the head has the added benefit of easing one-handed use.

Update: It looks like Craftsman makes a similar ratchet, too, called the Craftsman Professional 3/8-inch Rapid Reverse Ratchet. It’s $149.99 in the latest catalog.
