Recently IR Tools announced 4 new air ratchet models. I haven’t had a chance to test them out but the numbers look pretty impressive, especially for the MAX Series ratchets. Check out the YouTube video and full IR press release below. These ratchets and many others are also available now from Ohio Power Tool, see Air Ratchets.

Ingersoll Rand, a global leader in automotive and industrial tools and equipment, has launched the 1105MAX and 105 Series mini ratchets in both 1/4" and 3/8" square drive sizes, offering improved power, control and comfort.

The new 1105MAX Series mini composite air ratchets join the Ingersoll Rand MAX Series of tools established by the 2135QTiMAX Impactool™. Building on the best-in-class legacy, these new tools deliver a high torque of 41 Nm (30 ft-lb) and a free speed of 300 rpm. The easy-to-operate power regulator is very convenient for sensitive applications, such as small or plastic fasteners. In addition, the feather-touch lever allows better control of speed and power. These tools also feature a composite handle that ensures maximum comfort and provides insulation from cold compressed air. The 1105MAX Series are available in two drive sizes, 1/4" for the 1105MAX-D2 and 3/8" for the 1105MAX-D3.

The new 105 Series mini air ratchets also provides improved torque at 34 Nm (25 ft-lb) and a free speed of 250 rpm combining great performance with price-competitive value. They are available in two drive sizes, 1/4" for the 105-D2 and 3/8" for the 105-D3.

Both ratchets series feature a unique head construction that provides improved durability and more consistent performance over the life of the tool. The tools also share a low-profile forward/reverse control that has a wide diameter for easy gripping. In addition, the design also eliminates accidental changing of directions in confined spaces.

The new Ingersoll Rand ratchet models are an ideal solution for a wide range of vehicle service applications. They are perfect for car maintenance, mechanical repairs or body panel removal.

New to the Ingersoll Rand Max family is the 3445MAX ($227, Ohio Power Tool) 4.5” air grinder. The Max family of tools indicates the top of the line in terms of Power & Comfort (power/weight). It looks as though IR is really expanding the Max line to include not only impact wrenches, but also ratchets and now grinders. Checkout the video below for full stats on the new 3445MAX.

What type of tool is the new IR Hammerhead? Significantly more powerful than any ratchet with more than 10x the free RPM speed, it must be an Impact. On the other hand at 13.1”, 3.4lbs and under 2” head height it fits into tight spaces better than any impact could. The 3/8” 2015MAX ($239, Ohio Power Tool) and the ½” 2025MAX ($249, Ohio Power Tool) will be available in July and these hybrid tools should make a pretty big splash. Here is the official info from Ingersoll Rand.    

From Ingersoll Rand, the company that invented the Impactool in 1934, comes a revolutionary product that is unlike any other on the market today. The Hammerhead Low Profile Impactool offers the power and speed of an impact with the reach of a ratchet, and it’s going to change the way you work. The combination of MAX power, MAX control, and MAX access now allows you to use an Ingersoll Rand Impactool for virtually any application. Say goodbye to awkward extensions and swivel sockets, and watch your productivity soar as you conquer tasks in minutes that once took you hours.

MAX Power - With 180 ft-lb max torque and 7,000 rpm, Hammerhead offers more than twice the power of the leading competitor’s ratchet

MAX Control - A feather-touch trigger, two-position forward power regulator, and conveniently located forward/reverse ring provide precise control.

MAX Access - A head height of under 2" and reactionless torque allow you to safely use this powerful tool in tight spaces.
