Description

The Facom SXL.171 is a versatile 1/2" drive extendable ratchet designed for professional mechanics and engineers requiring flexible reach and secure torque application. This innovative tool combines a flexible head with an extendable shaft, allowing tradespeople to access awkward fasteners whilst maintaining optimal leverage across different working environments. The ratchet extends from a compact 304mm to a full working length of 437mm, providing additional leverage when applying torque to stubborn fixings. The extendable design proves particularly valuable when working in engine bays, under vehicle chassis, or in industrial machinery maintenance where space constraints vary. When collapsed, the tool stores easily in toolboxes and remains practical for close-quarters work. Built to Facom's exacting manufacturing standards, the SXL.171 features a flexible head that locks securely in position once the desired angle is achieved, preventing unwanted movement during operation. The watertight construction ensures maintenance-free reliability even in demanding workshop environments or outdoor applications. Weighing just 0.83kg, this ratchet delivers professional capability without causing operator fatigue during extended use. Features and Benefits: • Extends from 304mm to 437mm for increased leverage and torque application • Flexible head locks firmly to prevent movement during use • Watertight construction for maintenance-free operation in all conditions • Compact collapsed length ideal for restricted access applications • Manufactured to Facom's professional-grade specifications for long-term durability Specifications: Drive: 1/2" Square Drive Length: 304 - 437mm Weight: 0.83kg
