DeWalt is expanding its ever-popular 20V MAX platform with three new brushless ratchets designed for higher speed, tighter access, and improved durability in shop and jobsite settings.
Taking center stage is the 20V MAX XR Brushless Sealed Head Ratchet, rated up to 450 RPM, making it the fastest 20V MAX ratchet in DeWalt’s lineup and the first to feature a quick-swap interchangeable anvil system for 1/4-inch and 3/8-inch drives. And for confined work areas, the new Atomic 20V MAX Brushless 1/4-inch Extended Reach Ratchet features a long-neck, low-profile head designed to reach fasteners tucked behind engine components and inside equipment housings.
The third addition, the Atomic 20V MAX Brushless 1/4-inch Ratchet, delivers up to 45 ft.-lbs. of torque in a compact frame built with a glass-filled nylon housing designed for durability in chemical-heavy shop environments
