Fixman Reversible Ratcheting Combination Wrench 22mm 72-Tooth

At a Glance: Professional 22mm chrome vanadium combination wrench with a reversible 72-tooth ratcheting ring and a precise 5° working arc.

The Fixman 22mm Reversible Ratcheting Combination Wrench combines the straightforward access of an open-ended wrench with the speed and secure engagement of a ratcheting ring. Its integrated reversing control allows the working direction to be changed without removing and turning over the wrench, making tightening and loosening faster and more convenient. The fine 72-tooth mechanism requires only a 5° handle movement between engagements, providing excellent performance where nearby components restrict the available swing space. Manufactured from strong chrome vanadium steel with a polished chrome finish, this durable wrench is ready for automotive, machinery and general workshop maintenance.

Switch direction without removing the wrench

The reversible ratchet mechanism allows the user to change between clockwise and anticlockwise operation at the ring end. This is particularly useful in confined areas where lifting, turning over and repositioning the wrench would be difficult.

Features

  • 22mm open end: Allows quick placement onto accessible nuts and bolt heads.
  • 22mm ring end: Surrounds the fastener for secure engagement during ratcheting operations.
  • Reversing control: Changes the ratchet direction without requiring the wrench to be turned over.
  • Fine 72-tooth gearing: Provides frequent engagement points throughout the handle movement.
  • Small return arc: The mechanism requires approximately 5° of movement between engagements.
  • Fixed-head design: Provides a direct and stable connection between the handle and ratcheting ring.
  • CR-V steel construction: Chrome vanadium steel delivers dependable strength and durability.
  • Chrome-plated finish: Helps protect the wrench surface and simplifies cleaning after use.
  • Flat-profile handle: Provides a comfortable gripping surface and useful reach.

Benefits

  • Faster direction changes: The reversing control switches between tightening and loosening without removing the wrench.
  • Efficient fastening: The ratcheting ring turns the fastener without repeated lifting and repositioning.
  • Works in confined spaces: The fine 5° working arc is ideal where surrounding components limit handle movement.
  • Versatile operation: The open end supports quick initial engagement, while the ring end provides ratcheting speed and secure contact.
  • Controlled movement: The 72-tooth mechanism allows precise adjustment in small increments.
  • Durable workshop performance: Chrome vanadium steel construction supports dependable use during maintenance and repairs.

Application

  • Tightening and loosening compatible 22mm metric nuts and bolt heads.
  • Automotive servicing and mechanical repair work.
  • Machinery, equipment and industrial maintenance.
  • Agricultural and workshop repairs.
  • Assembly and installation tasks.
  • Working around brackets, pipes, hoses and nearby components.
  • Applications where limited clearance restricts the swing of a conventional wrench.

Extra Information

  • A 72-tooth ratchet provides 72 engagement positions through one complete rotation, resulting in a working arc of approximately 5°.
  • Use the reversing control to select the required direction before applying force.
  • The open end is useful for quick positioning, while the ring end provides efficient repeated turning.
  • Always engage the ring end fully and squarely over the nut or bolt head.
  • Confirm that the fastener is metric and exactly 22mm across the flats before use.
  • Use a calibrated torque wrench whenever a manufacturer specifies a final tightening torque.

Pro Tips

  • Check the reversing control before applying pressure to avoid turning the fastener in the wrong direction.
  • Use the open end to loosen a lightly tightened fastener initially, then switch to the ratcheting ring for faster removal.
  • For heavily seized fasteners, first use a suitable fixed ring wrench, socket or breaker bar to protect the ratchet mechanism.
  • Keep the ring end fully seated on the fastener to reduce the risk of slipping or rounding its corners.
  • Use smooth, controlled pressure and pull the wrench towards you where practical for improved balance.
  • Keep the ratcheting ring clean and free from dirt, swarf and hardened grease.

How to Use

  • Confirm that the nut or bolt head is metric and measures 22mm across the flats.
  • Inspect the fastener and wrench for dirt, wear or damage.
  • Set the reversing control for the required tightening or loosening direction.
  • Place the ratcheting ring completely over the fastener so that it sits squarely.
  • Apply light pressure to confirm that the mechanism drives in the selected direction.
  • Move the handle through the available arc and allow the ratchet to reset on the return stroke.
  • Repeat the movement until the fastener reaches the required position.
  • Use the reversing control when the opposite direction is required.
  • Complete final tightening with an appropriate calibrated torque wrench when a specified torque value applies.
