Choosing the Right Socket Drive Size
Drive size determines which sockets fit which ratchet, 1/4 inch suits light work, 3/8 inch is the most common general size, and 1/2 inch suits heavier torque jobs such as automotive work. A ratchet spanner, such as Jetech's professional range, combines a spanner and ratchet in one tool, useful in tight spaces where a socket and ratchet won't fit.
