Wera - 5073230001 8001 A 1/4" Square Drive Bit Ratchet, 60 Teeth

This ratchet has saved me so many times. I put two other "compact" ratcheting screwdrivers for comparison (see pic). Key, is when you use a Phillips #2 hex bit, the ratchet hardly adds any height, meaning you can get in the tightest spaces! It may seem expensive, but this is as high quality and strong as any full sized ratchet.

This little guy is stout! It works great with nut setters, 1/4” sockets and hex bits. It’ll get into spots nothing else can being the bit goes 90% through the head. It’s a 60 tooth so you get a pretty good arc swing compared to a std ratchet and half again better than a hex key. There’s a beautiful knurled thumb wheel (Spinner) on the back side and best of all, It’s a Wera. If you’ve ever used or even wielded one of their screwdrivers, You know that Wera means superior quality, ergonomically odd (Dare to be different) styling and a unique feel in the hand from the thumb position down to the bead blasted finish. This ratchet is a home run for the price and has me seriously looking at their full size ratchets. Expect a short review by Frostytheiceman79 on YouTube and Instagram.

Tiny but useful. Very impressed with the design and feel. Wera is know for premium products but it's a shame they are made in Taiwan.

This is a small wrench designed for 1/4" bits, and works well for that. It also includes a 1/4 socket adapter, but take care not to lose that. It seems very well built and will replace a crappy home depot one I got mostly for the bits. I'm considering attaching a Rapidaptor too.

My favorite mini ratchet, extremely durable and gets in tight spaces. Feels good in the hand and ratcheting is very smooth.

One of my favorite tools. So useful and excellently reliable.

Perfect for tiny spaces with no clearance

I own a few of these and absolutely love them. They are very nicely made with a beautiful fit and finish. They are not cheap but the quality is great.

Ist kleiner als erwartet. Liegt gut in der Hand und wirkt sehr hochwertig. Bisher keine Probleme.

La carraca es fuerte y muy pequeña, ideal para espacios reducidos donde otras carracas no caben. Wera es calidad.

This is one of my favourite ratchet tool I used for my build. Very well made and the ratchet is very smooth.

So this is one sweet little bit ratchet of which I have a bit of an addiction to I fell in love with the Mac RBRT series hex and Torx drivers and couldn’t afford to set up with the sets I needed then came across the master bit set that has 85% of the sizes I needed and the handful that deviated from that are well within my price range to purchase the single bit sockets as I need them saved me an absolute fortune so I decided that if I was using bits why use adapters and it’s been the hunt to find some that are as close to real ratchets as humanly possible as most of them are either modified mini ratcheting wrenches or just extremely expensive undersized 1/4” drive ratchets this is one example that’s not quite either of those thus far my favourites have been the Snap-On dual 80 1/4” magnetic hex drive bit ratchet, the Hazet HiPer 1/4” hex drive bit ratchet, and the KoKen 1/4” hex drive bit ratchet the only thing holding the snap on back is the handle is far too small the KoKen I’ve got too little experience with to say and the Hazet with the 90 tooth gear and the comfort grip would be perfect if only it was 1-2” longer unlike most others my desire is for a standard sized ratchet to use my bits in as a replacement for bit sockets and traditional 3/8” drive ratchets not as a nano ratchet for specialized low profile applications… this quest lead me to acquiring the Vessel ER400 electric bit ratchet which is essentially the motorized version of what I’m talking about and I even set up an impact driver for use with my bits going with the Milwaukee M12 3453 which started another love affair of mine that of the 12v Milwaukee tools and those tools in conjunction with the Mac RBRT master bit set and the ratcheting screwdriver handle included in those kits are major game changers tho don’t snub your nose at their regular master bit set I have that as well and it’s just as good the tolerances of those bits are tight enough to actually be functional and in both but sets as well as my 77 piece RBRT only bit set which I have in conjunction with the non RBRT master set so then I have the ratcheting screwdriver handle and all the standard bits that aren’t available in rbrt and get used so much they’ve made my standard bit sockets and screwdrivers almost obsolete with exceptions for long reach thin shanked situations. But I keep the snap on dual 80 in my rbrt master set in my house in the 77 piece set I have found that the vim tools locking flex head micro bit ratchet and extension actually fits in the case without any modifications I keep my Hazet and KoKen at arms length and the Wera actually lives full time in the non RBRT 123 piece master bit set which makes it super nice grab and go no need to worry about forgetting nothing and having it all contained in one reasonably small case is excellent this particular bit ratchet is excellent but it’s rather stiff compared to some and the handle is a hair short it was worth the 35% off I got it for however recently with the prices of them it’s debatable weather there’s better options for the same or less money and for not that much more money you can get top of the line that beats it every time tho the KoKen is cheaper than the Wera retail price so there are objectively better options but that thick handle although short has advantages that the long skinny ones just don’t it’s all about preference and in my situation it’s a never ending quest and partly a collection of sorts that spotlights the usefulness of the overlooked tool platform because all a bit socket is is a regular driver but pressed into a 1/4” socket so it’s potentially a stronger system to go this direction and allows for more torque transfer in theory either way the Wera does the thing and it’s a unique addition with a nice handle and the boutique feeling high end made in Taiwan hand tools like it all tend to have and that’s a major win in my book
