GearWrench 9700 SAE Flex-Head Ratcheting Combination Wrench Set – 7-Piece
Full Flexibility • Faster Fastening • Professional Automotive & Industrial Performance
The GearWrench 9700 SAE Flex-Head Ratcheting Combination Wrench Set delivers exceptional speed, access, and versatility for professional mechanics, maintenance techs, and serious DIY users. Each wrench features a flexible ratcheting box end that pivots to reach fasteners in confined or awkward spaces—places traditional wrenches can’t access.
The set’s fine-tooth ratcheting mechanism requires only a small swing arc, allowing fast and precise turning even in tight engine bays and machinery. The open end provides strong, traditional wrenching power while the ratcheting end speeds up repetitive fastening tasks.
Manufactured from premium chrome-vanadium steel with a polished, corrosion-resistant finish, these wrenches are built for long-lasting durability and professional reliability in automotive, industrial, and mechanical applications.
