New adapter can turn ratchets into high-torque screwdriver

ProMAXX power driver

ProMAXX Tool introduces its PowerDrive Hex Adapter, which converts any type of 1/4-in., drive ratchet (including electric, air, and hand), into a powerful, high-torque hex screwdriver.

According to ProMAXX, what makes the PowerDrive Hex different from other ratchet adapters is its small, 1/2-in., tall profile. The compact adapter design enables users to reach limited access areas with an included straight-head or Phillips-head hardened-steel bit.

Additionally, the PowerDrive Hex accepts any 1/4-in., security hex shank specialty bit. This allows technicians to use their ratchet for any repair, even in the tightest sections of the engine compartment, ProMAXX says.

“Technicians are plagued by having to access stubborn fasteners in difficult-to-reach places,” says ProMAXX Founder and President Jeffrey Del Rossa. “These tasks often require more torque than it is possible to deliver manually with the tooling by hand. Attaching the PowerDrive Hex to a 1/4-in., drive ratchet gives techs the torque they need to speed up the process and become more productive.”
