The Milwaukee M12 FUEL 3/8 in. Ratchet (3053-20) is a cordless ratchet that runs on Milwaukee's M12 12V battery platform. Its brushless motor delivers up to 70 ft-lbs of breakaway torque and 400 RPM, so it can crack loose stubborn fasteners and then spin them off quickly instead of working a hand ratchet the whole way. It is sold as a bare tool, so you need an M12 battery and charger you already own. It suits mechanics and DIYers doing repetitive bolt work in tight engine bays and under dashes, where its compact head and one-handed trigger beat a manual ratchet. Against air ratchets it drops the hose and compressor; against cheaper brushed cordless ratchets it adds more torque and longer motor life.

Owners rate the M12 FUEL ratchet highly for its torque and speed in tight spaces, and many call it one of the most-used tools in their box. Complaints center on it being a bare tool and on the limits of 12V power on very stubborn fasteners.
The Milwaukee M12 FUEL 3/8-in. Ratchet (model 3053-20) is a cordless ratchet for removing and installing fasteners in tight spaces. It delivers up to 70 ft-lbs of max torque and a no-load speed of 400 RPM. The torque is enough to break loose stubborn fasteners, and the speed helps with repetitive wrenching.
The head and body are compact, with a 3/4 inch head profile for reaching around hoses, brackets and crowded assemblies. The bare tool weighs 1.5 lbs. A contoured grip is meant to reduce hand fatigue, and the modular trigger setup lets you choose between button and paddle cap configurations.
It uses a POWERSTATE brushless outer rotor motor and REDLINK PLUS intelligence, which protects the tool and battery from overloading and overheating. Bi-directional motor firmware provides consistent breakaway torque. Other features include a raised forward and reverse shuttle, an integrated grease port for self-lubrication, a targeted LED work light and a metal-reinforced housing.
