What is a click?

Of course they have metric drive ratchets. I have 6.35 mm, 9.525 mm, and 12.7 mm drive ratchets in my tool box; I don't have one of the big'uns.

Luckily, they fit my 1/4, 3/8, and 1/2 inch drive sockets perfectly, so I've just used them as if they belonged together.


A click is also a small tributary in southern China; several clicks lun together to form a liver, which eventually luns into the sea.

Must be Friday. Forgive me, I know not what I do.

Have a good and SAFE weekend, folks.

Raul

A "Ratchet Handle" is a type of wrench with a detent and a stub for attaching "Sockets" which fit different size nuts and bolts.

In use - the wrench turns the "Socket" in one direction, and allows the handle to be drawn back freely in the other direction so that the wrench does not have to be lifted off the nut or bolt for a new grip.

The detent mechanism is also called a ratchet...

And yes, they are reversible.

What are these called en francais?

OK, I understand. Thanks for the very clear explanation.
The name in french is "clé à cliquer" because when you turn it, does a "click" sound...it's so simple.

If you clicked on the words Ratchets or the sockets with certain drives you would have SEEN what they were.
