A battery-powered ratchet is an essential power tool for tasks that require taking something apart or putting it back together. Prepare for your next DIY project and outfit your toolbox with a cordless ratchet from Ace, then explore other tools and power tool sets for your arsenal.
What is a Cordless Ratchet Wrench?
A cordless ratchet wrench, also called a battery-powered ratchet or electrician’s ratchet, is a power tool that operates with a battery instead of a cord connecting it to an electrical outlet. Unlike manual ratchets that require physical effort, battery ratchets use an electric motor to drive the ratcheting mechanism, making it faster and easier to tighten or loosen nuts and bolts.
Because of their automated design, cordless ratchets are a popular option for auto industry workers or people who need to repair machines.
Cordless Ratchet vs. Electric Ratchet
The terms cordless ratchet and electric ratchet are often used interchangeably, but they aren’t necessarily the same thing. While both types run on an electrical motor that operates the ratchet mechanism, only cordless ratchets are, by definition, cordless. Electric ratches are corded and must be plugged into an electrical source, thus limiting your mobility.
Brushed Vs. Brushless Ratchet Motors
You can find battery-powered ratchets with either brushed or brushless motors. Here are the key differences between these two designs:
- Brushed motor ratchets: True to their name, brushed motors deliver electric current by means of brushes inside the motor. These ratchets are an affordable option with plenty of speed and power, but they tend to be noisier than brushless motors.
- Brushless cordless ratchets: Brushless motor ratchets deliver an electrical current via permanent magnets and electromagnets. Brushless models tend to be pricier but can last longer than a traditional brushed-motor ratchet and are quieter when in use.
Advantages of a Battery-Powered Ratchet
There are many advantages to using a cordless ratchet instead of a traditional manual ratchet. Here are a few benefits cordless ratchets offer so you can decide if it’s the right choice for your project:
- Power ratchets have a moderate torque that handles tight screws and bolts without ripping them out.
- Safety trigger locks keep you from accidentally starting the ratchet, reducing the possibility of over-tightening your fasteners.
- A compact design allows battery-powered ratchets to reach into tighter spaces, store easily in your tool box and travel for on-the-go jobs.
- Greater efficiency means cordless ratchets can finish the same job as a manual ratchet in a fraction of the time.
- Ratchets with ergonomic handles are easy to hold and use without putting as much strain on your hands.
How to Choose Your Cordless Ratchet
Many cordless ratchet wrenches from leading brands like Milwaukee are designed with top-notch features, so how do you know which ratchet is right for you? Here are the most important points to consider as you shop:
- Speed and settings: Some cordless ratchet wrenches offer different speed settings and torque, letting you adjust the tool's performance based on the task at hand.
- Battery type: Consider the type of battery the ratchet uses. Lithium-ion batteries are popular for their durability and longer runtimes compared to NiCad batteries.
- Size and weight: Look for a battery ratchet that’s comfortable to handle for extended periods, especially if you’re working in tight spaces or overhead.
- Accessories and compatibility: Do you need any additional accessories or attachments like sockets or extension bars? Make sure the accessories you need are compatible with the cordless ratchet you choose.
