Offset Socket Extension Gets In Tight Places
The Anex offset socket extension lets you use your power ratchet/driver in places it wouldn’t otherwise fit. It’s just over 9 in. long, less than 2 in. wide and only 3/8 in. thick, so it gets into tight spaces. The gear drive power transfer is also handy for use with pass-through sockets on threaded rod or long bolts.
The offset socket extension is made in Japan and can be found on Amazon. Prices vary from $95 to $150, depending on included items. It’s also available on eBay with a slightly different combination of adapters and sockets. Prices vary. The carbon steel tool is powder-coated black with silver adapters for sockets.
While the extension tool weighs less than 3/4 lb., one reviewer pointed out that it requires two hands to operate, one on the wrench and one on the driver. See their video for details on a workaround. They used an older driver with a bracket to attach the tool to the driver, allowing them to use it with one hand.
An Amazon reviewer noted that the tool was a great alternative to using a hand ratchet wrench in a space that allows only one or two clicks.
