The Milwaukee M12 cordless 3/8 in. ratchet is a sub-compact tool for auto mechanics and maintenance work. Its 12 V motor delivers up to 35 ft-lbs of torque and 250 RPM. It runs on a battery, so no air hose is needed.
A variable-speed metal trigger gives control on delicate fasteners. The 3/4 in. low-profile head reaches into tight spaces and engine bays. The housing is reinforced steel. The tool is 10-3/4 in. long and weighs 1.9 lb.
REDLINK intelligence protects against overload through communication between the tool, battery and charger. An on-board fuel gauge shows remaining run-time, and a built-in LED light illuminates dark, confined work areas. This is a bare tool that runs on M12 REDLITHIUM battery packs. The battery and charger are sold separately.
