Buy a cheap one in the right size and cut to length to fit . I'm asking santa for a set this year. Edited 05/12/13 07:50 AM by hawlass 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a simple one-way mechanism, it loosens the teeth on one side going one direction and tightens going the other direction. The teeth are as good, if not better, than any other type of ratchet spanner, so why would it be rounding bolts?Even if you are right, rounded bolts can be dealth with, too.

Happy to be proved wrong.In saying that you could only use it to advance the thread and use a normal spanner for the final tightening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
