KOLOSS The Ratchet With Hammer Function.. Everyone knows that ratchets are sometimes used as hammers, because lets face it, time is short. You re not meant to do it, but invariably you do - and you usually end up damaging your ratchet in the process... It doesn t have to be like that anymore because now there is the Koloss from Wera, the first ratchet in the world that can safely be used as a hammer... The Koloss is a reversible, heavy-duty ratchet that can transfer at least 600Nm of torque... A double pawl mechanism and a return angle of only 6 allows you to tighten and loosen screws quickly and accurately even in cramped conditions. The push-through square drive, including the tooth system, is far more robust than a forward/reverse switch Permanently locked, hardened square drive The square drive gives way to impacts and cannot be damaged when the ratchet is used as a hammer Best of all, no impact - absolutely no impact can destroy the ratchet mechanism. Double Pawl Mechanism Dry-fined striking face; rubber pad attachment to protect materials and surfaces Sockets and accessories are easily attached User benefit:.. No need to carry two different tools.. The tools is unbreakable and so a long-term investment.. Completely safe.. A removable retaining ring makes the ratchet mechanism easy to clean or grease..
