Designed to exceeds ASME torque standards for 3/8" drive tools despite its miniature size.

This is very close to a 1/4” ratchet in its outline, works well for right spaces. My GW 1/4 ratchet is sane outline but slimmer so it’s better for super tight spaces but this is a close second. Impressed by Astro. Will buy more of their stuff for sure. Only thing is add some oil to make it smoother, but careful with the clip it flies out easy! Lol.

Head size of the 3/8 drive Astro ratchet is slightly smaller than the 1/4 tekton rachets I have. It is not nearly as small as the Tone Compact 3/8 Head Ratchet I also bought for this task. The Astro has a much longer handle. I think around 12 inches. It should be a nice size for changing spark plugs on a Subaru BRZ. Not a lot of space for this task. If the head size was just a little smaller it would be perfect. The Tone has the really small head size, but the Astro has the better length. It looks to be well made.

Got this on the advice of Mr. Subaru on YouTube. Took me 4 hours to change the passenger side plugs. Took way less time using this ratchet.1/4" ratchet size head with a 3/8" drive is ingenious, with I knew about them 30 years ago when I was a motorcycle mechanic.This particular wrench isn't Snap-on of course, but it is a nice wrench, well made, nothing to say bad about it..

Good long reach ratchet that can get into tight spaces.. Ratcheting mechanism seems smooth and chrome finish is nice. Feels good in hand and good quality..

This is a great little ratchet for the money. I TRIED to break it. I really did. Nothing phased it, not even when I put a cheater bar on it. That alone makes it good in my book. The handle is long and thin and the head is on the small side for a cheaper 3/8" ratchet. The only thing that would improve this ratchet in my opinion is if the ratcheting mechanism were a bit smoother/finer. It was sort of rough right out of the box, but I lubricated it and things smoothed out to an acceptable level. For the price, it's a great tool.

I badly needed this tool a special project, and I’m glad I was able to order it and have it in hand 2 or so days later. It seems to be well made and quite durable, especially for the price.

This ratchet is F’n nice! I have a drawer full of “truck brand” and other high quality ratchets that I paid literally 10x as much for. This little thing is every bit as nice and every bit as useful. The gear set is super smooth, the head is TINY and the chrome is like jewelry. Outstanding value for a very unique design that fits in a lot of places.Be realistic about what you use it for though, this isn’t a breaker bar, it has a very unique design for unique tasks.

After reading many positive Astro tool reviews from North American user’s it was time to purchase and see how Nano ratchets stack up.I do agree with the majority of positive reviews, well finished and the 72 tooth count with relatively low back drag and smooth operation. Minimal movement in the drive assembly in fact better tolerances than some more expensive brands.The NANO name is slightly misleading as the head size is not in the same league as Nepros, Tone, Vessel, Koken or Snap On compact 1/4 bodied ratchets with 3/8th drive internals. That being said it’s a small trade off for the substantially lower price difference and the lifetime warranty offered by Astro.In summary for the price a good tool and a useful addition for tech’s who don’t want to break the bank going for a new occasional use compact head design.
