Wera 073276 Joker Combi Ratchet Spanner 16mm

Ratcheting combination wrench; unique holding function, thanks to the metal plate in the jaw, reduces the risk of dropping nuts and bolts; replaceable metal plate in the jaw secures nuts and bolts with its extra hard teeth and reduces the danger of slipping; integrated limit stop prevents any slipping around the bolt head and allows higher torque to be applied; double-hex geometry makes for a positive connection with nuts or bolts and reduces the risk of slipping; return angle of only 30° at the open end to avoid time consuming flipping of the wrench during fastening jobs; ratchet mechanism at the ring end, with an exceptional, fine-tooth mechanism – 80 teeth in all – enables flexibility in very confined working spaces; specially forged geometry for high torque transfer and strength; high performance chrome molybdenum steel; nickel-chrome coating for high corrosion protection. Colour coding and forged dimension details to enable the desired JOKER to be easily located.

“Take it easy” tool finder system – with profile and size colour-coding for quick and easy tool selection. Colour-coded system for hexagon drive screws (L-Keys, Zyklop bit sockets), external hex drive screws and nuts (Joker wrenches, Zyklop sockets and Zyklop bit sockets with holding function), and TORX® drive screws (L-Keys, Zyklop bit sockets).

The Joker’s holding function means that nuts and bolts can be held in the jaw and easily positioned where they are needed. Fastening on to the thread can then be done quickly and safely, thanks to the innovative special stop-plate which holds the fastener. No more time-wasting searches for dropped nuts and bolts! After applying and positioning the nut or bolt, fastening can begin immediately – no additional tools required.

Constant re-positioning of the wrench? Difficulty holding fasteners in confined spaces? Easing off to avoid any risks of injury or fastener damage? That was yesterday. Today, the Joker prevents slipping off of the fastener head with its integrated limit-stop – no longer is the thumb needed to act as a depth stop. This makes applications much easier and allows signifi cantly more force to be applied during fastening jobs.

The Joker’s clever double-hex geometry delivers a very positive connection with nuts or bolts – it’s a perfect fit. And the exchangeable, hardened metal gripping plate in the Joker’s mouth literally bites itself into the bolt, with its extremely hard tips. Both features combine to prevent slipping, even at higher torque.

Instead of 60°, the Joker only has a 30° return angle thanks to it’s unique double-hex design. Along with the Joker’s straight neck, this means that flipping the wrench has become a thing of the past. With the Joker, you can now loosen and tighten nuts and bolts, in situations where conventional tools fail. Particularly in confined spaces, where conventional open-jawed wrenches cannot be used. The combination of limit stop and small return angle enables eff ective work, even on screw pipe connections.

The ratcheting feature at the ring end boasts an exceptional, fine tooth mechanism – 80 teeth in all – which provides greater flexibility, even in very confined workingspaces.
