When I struggled with a ring spanner or even a socket on a ratchet one click at a time because the access was so tight. I longed for an easier way to remove tight nuts and bolts located in hard to reach locations. Mileaukee offer a quality cordless ratchet with enough torque to get most of the jobs done. Trusted manufacturer offering more power than most of their competitors. It's definitely a must have tool for auto mechanic's.

Excellent ratchet, well made and the little longer reach makes a big difference. Is a little bit heavy but manageable.

Excellent so far, not had a hard life as yet but initial impressions are good, solid, robust piece of kit. Timesaver

Great product, makes life so much easier when working on cars. It's a game changer.

"Simply the best!"

Simply the best 3/8" long reach 12v ratchet out there at the moment, plenty of torque on hand for most applications, just crack the fitting first then drive it in/out. Battery lasts a good time as well for a 2 Ah. Would highly recommend!

Ideal mechanics tool - now with extra reach!

Plenty of torque for removing bolts around the engine bay, with a longer neck the battery grip doesnt get in the way so much Not for removing wheel nuts obviously, but anything up to around 14mm you should be fine! Worth the money if you have bought into the Milwaukee M12 system as there are many other tools that use the same batteries 3/8 and 1/2 share the same anvil - the 1/4 is smaller all around for an even more compact head should you need one

M12 long rachet

This is good and very quick to. Great for those hard to reach places etc.

Milwaukee 3 /8 extended reach ratchet

Top tool the extended reach is perfect good power and battery life

Milwaukee M12FIR38LR-0 12V Cordless Fuel 3/8 Drive Long Reach Ratchet

I haven't used it yet, but it looks 'great'.

What a monster of a ratchet, immensely strong electrically and mechanically, for really tight bolts, you would need to first crack them off with no electrical input, then once under way, alloe the motor to get the job done with unbelievable speed! This also applies when tighten up, if you want it really tight, (over 50 Nm ish) once the motor has achieved its maximum torque carry on like a conventional ratchet! A massive time saver in the workshop. It uses standard M12 batteries which last hours! It's quite expensive, but if you want the best, most reliable ratchet on the market, here it is! This is my first milwaukee ratchet, after several cheaper versions, I think there's a lot to be said for, 'you get what you pay for! ' If you're into mechanical repairs, this is ... MoreWhat a monster of a ratchet, immensely strong electrically and mechanically, for really tight bolts, you would need to first crack them off with no electrical input, then once under way, alloe the motor to get the job done with unbelievable speed!
