New Milwaukee® Ratcheting Combination Wrenches Feature 144 Teeth for 2.5° Arc Swing

MILWAUKEE, WI- Milwaukee Tool has once again delivered innovation to a core category of tools aimed at the professional trades with the introduction of 7pc and 15pc Ratcheting Combination Wrench Sets. These new wrenches offer a 2.5° arc swing, 144 ratcheting positions, an anti-slip MAX BITE™ open-ended grip, as well as an I-Beam handle design so users can comfortably apply leverage.

With 2.5° of arc swing, the new wrenches allow users to work quickly and efficiently in tight spaces. Each wrench has been engineered with durable double-stacked pawls within the ratcheting mechanism to ensure the longest ratchet life and 144 ratcheting positions for improved speed and accessibility. The MAX BITE™ open-ended grip features a geometry that improves the wrench’s grip on nuts and bolts, providing up to 25% more torque than smooth open-ended wrenches. This geometry also reduces the pressure from corners of bolts to help prevent fastener rounding and stripping.

To alleviate the frustration caused by competitive wrenches with flat and thin frames that dig into users’ hands, the new Milwaukee® Ratcheting Combination Wrenches are designed with an I-Beam handle for superior user comfort, even while applying high torque. Because wrench sizes can often be hard to see on chrome, size labels on each of the wrenches are ink-filled for easy identification and readability from multiple angles. These ink-filled labels are also different colors to differentiate SAE and metric sets (red for SAE and black for metric). For further utility, the 7pc set comes in a portable, locking storage tray for better organization on and off the jobsite. The 15pc set comes in a storage tray that’s designed for long-term storage, and easily fits into any of Milwaukee’s popular steel storage units.

Available in April 2018 in both SAE and Metric, the new 15pc and 7pc Ratcheting Combination Wrench Sets confirm Milwaukee’s unrelenting commitment to providing solutions that solve key user frustrations, while increasing jobsite productivity.
