JOKER SW 9/16 SB RATCHETING COMBO WRENCH

In my line of work (entertainment production staging), I have to tighten and loosen a lot of 9/16 nuts and bolts for a particular product we use. These fasteners must be secured properly since they're bolting on guard rails to prevent people from falling off stage.I was tired of using a standard, ill fitting, box wrench for this job and decided to invest in a quality tool. The Wera Joker wrench has gone above and beyond my expectations of a combination wrench. The ratcheting end works perfectly and the 80 tooth mechanism comes in handy when you don't have a lot of swing room, but that's not even the best part of this wrench. The backing plate on the open end is ingenious! Using this wrench you can lock a nut into the wrench and thread a bolt through without worrying about slippage. If your bolt head is fixed in place you can also screw the nut on simply by locking it in the open end and spinning the whole wrench. This feature alone justifies the price of the product, but the craftsmanship that went into the design really makes this a full package. It feels really good in the hand and I wish I had $500 to drop on the full metric/SAE Joker wrench rolls.

Awesome quality

Great tool could fit the nuts with paint on them unfortunately someone stole it.

Nothing more you could ask for in a ratcheting wrench.

I work sheet metal and this is the most common wrench I use. I have had several people pick it up and tell me how much they like it after they use it. The box end has a little plate that kinda holds the nut in place, comes in very handy when you don't have a fee hand.

I'm an installer of theatrical hoists and lighting infrastructure. I work at height and overhead, which adds just a bit of urgency to attaching fasteners. These wrenches work, and feel good in hand.

Have some great features that no other wrench has for holding a nut or other fitting as well as the option to use a 6 point or 12 point fit and a fine tooth ratcheting end that works amazing

The Wera Jokers are the Best on Planet !Awesome wrenches !

Just get an offset gearwrench, i was enthusiastic but it’s a gimmick, any thing that needs to be tight requires a different wrench if you want your hardware unscathed, same goes for bolt removal

Ich mag die Wera Joker Maul-Ringratschen-Schlüssel sehr, weil man die volle Funktionalität einer Ratsche hat, ohne gleich den ganzen Ratschenkasten einzupacken. Wir haben außerdem eine Amerikanische Größe gebraucht. Das Ding ist jetzt bei uns im Boardwerkzeug und freut sich über gelegentlichen Einsatz. Tolles Produkt!

Fantastic quality

Probably used it 15 times and the ratchet broke while I was tightening a nut on a muffler clamp. The nut was barely snug so that was a disappointment. Also the open end doesn't grip hardware very well. I ended up rounding hardware or busting a lot of knuckles. I got the new offset wera jokers about a month ago and the ratcheting end is a lot beefier and the clearance on the open and box ends are phenomenal. Spend the extra money and get the new and improved wrenches lol

アメリカ製の機械のレベル調整ナットを回す為購入しました。が、実際使ってみるとナットにはまらない、使用感とか以前に固くて入らないんです。高い鉄くずでした。
