- Must Watch to see what GearWrench isn't Telling you about its NEW Tools 90T ratchets compared to the 84T ratchets they are phasing out. Which is Better?
Today we tested the 3/8" Drive 90-Tooth Teardrop Ratchet 8" 81211T vs the older 84-tooth 81211F. Amazingly they are really similar with little differences and they performed very similarly in the strength test.
GEARWRENCH® is proud to roll out its new line of 90-tooth ratchets bolstering one of its signature product categories in the process.
These tools were unveiled at the SEMA Show this past November which I attended and stated the 90-tooth ratchet line is stronger and provides better access, all while being more comfortable on the hands of professional mechanics who turn them countless times a day.
As it turns out it would appear that the 90T is very comparable to the 84T in terms of strength and the new line of ratchets provides a 4-degree swing arc for greater access in tight spaces compared to the previous 4.5 so it's not really that large of a difference.
The 120XP from Gearwrench provides a 3-degree swing arc.
I still believe that Gearwrench wproduced a nice engineered, high-strength pawl extremely similar to that of the 84T and it does provide increased durability and continues to exceed ASME torque performance requirements.
For those who prefer a chrome handle, the full polish versions are easy to clean and ergonomic to be easier on the hands. For those who prefer it, the solvent-resistant cushion grip is comfortable but tough enough to handle shop life.
I actually prefer ratchet handles for the different season's Hot vs COLD!
Available now are 13 individual standard and Flex Head ratchets to go with six sets. Seven are full polished chrome and six will feature the cushion grip, and all except the 3/8-inch stubby flex head ratchet are available in ¼-inch, 3/8-inch, and ½-inch drives.
Here is a full look at the lineup and sets that are available today:

270 pounds is impressive but we should be comparing the slop in the gear drive not the failure point.
Isn't the whole point of having more teeth is to take out the slop and have less of a swing arc?
I can't agree more...
I 100% agree, I was hoping to see a teardown review of the internals and the backlash comparison that he recently did.... all these “test to failure” points don’t serve a purpose (at all) for me in my shop.... I’ve legitimately had/returned a 120xp xxl spline drive ratchet because there was more “real world” swing arc than my buddies “platinum “ 72tooth version. aLSO no one takes into comparing socket size manufacturing (ie: comparing the socket/jaw width13mm snap on to a 13 gearwrench or 13mm icon.... - side note the 13mm icons are a couple thou” tighter than a snap-on however icon clearly uses a “softer” metallurgy.....
pLease do a backlash test... personally I love my 120xp ratchets, but my 90t Carlyle and 80t snap-on give it a run for it’s money....
Besides all these failure points are breaking at the limit of a 3/8” anvil, anything knowingly above 200ft lbs you should be using a half inch drive!
That's all he can do is brake stuff no point in it all the same crap everything he touches he gotta brake it
A drive system designed to thread to surface would be great in tight spaces
Yeah, I'm sure Gearwrench uses the same 3/8 drive in both wrenches lol. Of course they break at the same torque.
I have breaker bars for anything I can't turn with the ratchet directly. The smoothness, feel and back drag are much better criteria for a ratchet imo.
He’s not wrong, ya know. Surely, I’d at least jump to 1/2” drive.
I agree, but you have to admit, it’s fun to know what they are capable, especially if you ever find yourself in a bind and need to use tools in ways they aren’t meant to be.
Can't agree more. Strong enough is strong enough. I care a lot more for how precise and durable the tool is, not the brute strength per se. If you are using the ratchet like a breaker bar, well then use a breaker instead.
I am happy with all the Gearwrench tools I have, they work and hold up well and are a good value and yea I use them every day at work.
Gearwrench is no fool, just add 6 teeth on the gear and put a little yellow stripe on the handle, bam $10 more for the same dam ratchet.
Same type of failure. The 3/8" drive gear is only so strong. (The 3/8" square.)
And I bet that the 3/8" square twisted quite a bit before it gave.
Mate, I painted a red ring around my 120XP handle with burrowed nail polish from my sister. Better swing, and better swag
Im sold
90T sounds cooler
A couple of weeks ago I was on the GearWrench website and I seen that the price of their new 90T 3/8 Flex Head (locking) with the new orange comfort grip was $101.00 . . . . surprisingly it is just $24 less than a Mac Tools Max Axis 90. . . . . If GearWrench keeps going up with those prices, they might as well become a tool truck brand (oh, wait a minute, they're already doing that too)
Prices on web sites like Gearwrench and SK are not real retail pricing as far as I have seen as resellers have deals everywhere on almost all the items .
That's true, the company it's self always shows full retail. And nobody pays that price. Even though i agree that GW is jacking up prices for there new stuff, but not even close to Mac axis ratchets
Where's the best place to get GW products at a reasonable price? I checked Amazon and the price is $39 for the 90T 3/8 ratchet that's used in this video..
They make a better product so course it's going to cost more. If you don't like the price of the newer, better stuff, by the cheaper old model.
Working down in crammed engine bays, the level of back drag on a ratchet is just as important as ultimate strength. Let's get a super sensitive inch/lb meter such as that used for setting up differentials and do some real testing. When you get to fish something such as the power steering pump out Buick that is buried deep in the engine bay, you'll get where I'm coming from. That said, ultimate strength only tells me half the story.
3 words. Twist handle ratchet
Ko-ken 3726Z 72T Only had it a couple of days. It's a little 7" long 3/8 drive non-locking flex ratchet.
Only 72 teeth, but boy! Is it smooth. Almost no backdrag and the head is as small as some 1/4" ratchets.
My new favorite ratchet. It comes in an 11" size too.
I have been happy with GearWrench tools since they came out with the first ratcheting wrenches. While their warranty has been inconsistent over the years, and haven’t had to warranty that much and their ratchet rebuild kits aren’t too expensive. The other big bonus is that they go on sale often enough that I have been able to set build GearWrench tools at a price competitive to cheaper brands and sometimes at a per tool pricing near HF.
When do they go on sale? No sales currently.
@@MR.TOYBOX Tractor Supply
Bro new Quinn is gearwrench f the rebuilt kit
I have their ratchets, ratchet/wrenches, and long line wrenches.
My 8 and 9 mm's are slightly bent. And that is pretty common with them.
But everything performs great.
I have their 1/2in sockets too. They're thick and strong. I've used them to rip off locking lug nuts, and they don't seem to mind at all.
Other sockets don't survive being hammered onto a lug nut.
I originally fell "in love" with GEARWRENCH back in 2004 when my tools where stolen from my truck.
The "Pass-through" Ratchet Set was AWESOME! Only downfall was that the Pawls never really held onto the socket very well... Great for Tie Rods and All-Thread!
If anyone else was wondering on a different video / torque meter setup... The 120XP got about 239ft lbs before failing.
Great vid. I’d suggest explaining what is occurring as it relates to the failure mode. You testing the UTS of the steels used for the anvil. I have yet to see a failure caused by a loss of grip between the gear and pawl. The failures you depict are the direct result of ductile failures, also known as plastic deformation. The combination of excessive energy/force being applied at slowed rate, resulting in the propagation of a fracture that leads to material separation. This is only an assumption, as I’ve not seen the test specimens. I’d love to perform a fracture analysis on some of your specimens; possibly even looking at some FTIR to determine the materials used by some of the manufacturers.
Tractor supply can go pound sand
I’d like to see the SK LP90 put to the test
Would you consider testing the Nepros 90 tooth ratchet (NBR390)? Many on GJ consider Nepros to exceed Snap-on in quality. It would be interesting to see where it lands in pure strength. Thanks for doing these tests. Can't wait to see the German ratchets soon.
I just bought an 84 tooth 1/2" version. I love my 120xp 3/8" like the one you have there.
I really like the 120xp especially the long handle flex comfort grip👍
@@ClientGraphics Nice! my long handle is a pittsburgh pro. my standard length handle full polish 120xp 3/8" ratchet has broken loose stubborn brake caliper bolts with the help of a cheater pipe/floor jack handle. I now have 1/2" metric sockets, and I'm waiting on my 1/2" 84 tooth standard length ratchet to get here next week.
I like the icon ratchet are smooth but I have always used the Pittsburgh pro they been good too me
Start measuring how much take up/slack is in the action of these new ratchets you test, that would be a good way to show people which ones would be better for tight areas.
Gearwrench is my daily, but I have one 1/4” long handle Matco that is my favorite
GearWrench is a good price to value work horse. I have yet to get a Matco ratchet. One day maybe!
I love Matco ratchets
Radical Way of Showing the strength of a tool without breaking it. 🍻😎🤙
Nevermind...🤣🤣🤣 You just couldn’t help yourself 🤷♂️🍻
Just doing my thing✌️
I got a 1/2 drive and 3/8 drive 84 tooth gearwrench ratchet at tractor supply for half off ($17 and $13 respectively)
That’s a sweet deal👍
That is a ton of reducers and adapters hooked up
The best Gearwrench Ratchet ever made is this one 81266 3/8" Dr. 84 Tooth Full Polish Locking Flex Ratchet.
They will be making that in the 90T and it will be part 81266T which will replace the 84t you mentioned m.
@Chad Wilkins Nah
@Chad Wilkins I'm not. I like quality which is why I'm a Gearwrench fan in many instances.
My favorite ratchet is Tekton. I thought the Gear Wrench did really good for how cheap it was. Have you checked out any of the Ingersoll Rand hand tools yet?
I have not tried out any IR tools yet. I like Tekton also and it has performed really well.
Same Tekton wratchet's with GearWrench sockets. Both are solid companies that seem to be going for the old craftsman "high quality tools at an affordable price" market.
I also love how detailed Tekton is with info on their tools. It's really impressive to see a company being transparent about their tools specs and where they are made.
That's pretty decent that the performance was so close. Thanks for doing that test.
Couldn’t believe it was that close. Those two ratchets were really consistent and purchased 3 months apart.
Hey Chris. I'm wondering if the guys of the Gearwrench 3/8, 84 and 90 tooth ratchets will fit in the 1/4 ratchets bodies? I know this conversion is only for tight places, there is a lot of torque loss going to the smaller body. So many people try to say that Matco and Gearwrench are the same, then this should work I feel. SnapOn and Matco both do this conversion. Just curious what your thoughts are on this, maybe even a future video.
Need to add the Matco 88 tooth to your testing. I own 6 and haven't broke one yet.
Have to get hooked up with a dealer and I’ll get it on the to do list👌🏻
ClientGraphics, if you’d like, I can get you a Matco88 sent out. My friend is a local Matco dealer. You can purchase in my account and I’ll send it out! Let me know if you’d like to collaborate on that.
Great review could you please do a review between the new gearwrench 90 tooth locking flex head ratchet and the Matco locking flex head ratchet 3/8 version both are owned by Apex tools the Matco made in USA and Gearwrench in Taiwan
Looks like they performed great! I still think it’s cool how well kobalt did. Thanks for sharing Chris!
The thing about the Kobalt ratchet on the list is it was a flex head and quick release 💪🏾
ClientGraphics 💪💪
That milling they added on the front reminds me of the Husky ratchets. Obviously they’re made by the same company Apex tools, But that’s something I noticed.
Great video 👌
Fairly new to your channel, love your videos man thank you
I'd love to see you drop a matco kit in the gearwrench!! Definitely something that surprised me!
I have to get hooked up with the local Matco deal, but that means $$$ because they have quite a few things that come in green that I want! Might put that on the to do list👍
Test please the new Hazet 8816 HP with the 400 Nm benchmark Ratchet
Thanks for the video, I get a lot of questions asked how the 120 XP compares to the 90t. I didn’t know the head was that much bigger!
Glad I could help. I sent you an insta about the Head Width Head Thickness and Overall Length of the 90T and 120XP
Enjoy!
Could you add swing arc and especially back drag to your testing? More often instead of trying to get lots of torque, I am trying to turn a loose nut that I can't get my finger in there to remove. Having a lot of back drag means the ratchet will never click and I won't be able to remove the nut. Likewise with the swing arc, if I don't have a lot of room to swing, fine teeth help a lot, but how far to swing to get to next click, but then how much swing back to get the force on the bolt. e.g. swing 5 degrees to next click, but because of slop, the torque doesn't start applying until 2 degrees are picked up, thereby only giving 3 degrees of useful "work" per 5 degrees of swing.
Back drag can be so low that we are talking ounce-inches. I looked at the prices in a few devices and we are talking at least $130 for an analog tool and 3-4 times that for a digital one. I could make something but then the accuracy becomes a question so if you know anyone that might want to be a sponsor or has a 0-16 inch ounce torque device have them email me.
I've been using the proto precision 90 24" all day every day and love it
Did the pawls in either hold up? Or just anvil failure? Check out some more Carlyle ratchets.
Both pawls were still in good working order. Same with the teeth on the gears. The both had just the anvil failure.
Thank you for testing similar ratchet format good test!
Love your videos and I understand the 90 and 84 aren’t cross compatible but I’m very curious if the 1/2” 120XP is swappable with the 1/2” 90T because GW doesn’t make a dual-material handle 1/2” 120XP ratchet which is rather unfortunate because I just bought the long flex head 3/8” / 1/4” dual material 120XP and I LOVE them and want a 1/2” but the only make a full chrome version and I already have the 84 Tooth so getting the 90T is pointless unless the120XP and 90T aren’t compatible
I'll checkout the ratchets at my local TSC, thanks for the effort and time put in your videos!
Glad I could be of help
I love my gearwrench because its thin and love the feel of my snap on the most. but what 3/8 has the narrowest head?
The Carlyle locking flex heads and the Blackhawk fine tooth pear head ratchets have heads that are pretty damn narrow.
This is Polestartools BTW. Now I'm finally first!
The whole point of having 2 separate measurement devices is to compare values from independent sources. When you calibrate them together it makes 2 devices pointless. For credibility the tests should be repeated multiple times and averaged to account for manufacturing variances.
Is it possible to tell me how much tooth is the Milwaukee ratchet,it almost look identical to the sunex.
Milwaukee is a 90 tooth ratchet
@@ClientGraphics thanks man
Can you please TEST-TO-FAIL the Pass-Through Ratchets?!
I do own the 3/8” GearWrench one. I never even thought about testing it. Now I’m going to have the thing about this and maybe put it on the to do list.
Here's my Friday night conspiracy theory, the newly design Gearwrench 90 tooth ratchet gear cover looks just like the gear cover on SATA ratchets. I believe the new Gearwrench 90 tooth ratchets are made in the SATA factory in China, People's republic of and assembled in Taiwan. Gearwrench claims the upgraded 90 tooth ratchets have stronger internals than their 84 tooth series but, your failure test didn't really show that. It's great that Gearwrench continues to upgrade their product, if 6 more teeth can be considered an upgrade but, I think the revised comfort grip handle shape and new color scheme is nice. Thanks for sharing.
I do like the revised comfort grip handle, just wish it came in the color green for some odd reason I started liking that color😉
Gearwrench and SATA are both Apex Tool companies.
Doesn't the length of the adapters or extensions screw with the torque values the farther away you get from the head of the ratchet?
Great video! I have a question for anyone who can answer, what is the part number for the matco kit that will fit in the 84t geatwrench ratchets? Thank you so much
Hell Yes, I love me some destruction! Thanks Chris!
Me too. Thanks for watching and commenting Bobby!
In the market for a long handle 1/2" ratchet. I've got a Gearwrench 90 tooth 17" flex head, but I could really use a longer handle and a locking option. I have been eyeballing the Gearwrench 90 tooth 24" locking flex head or the 120xp 24" fixed handle. Would you choose one of those over the other? What else would you recommend to compare?
I have a good load of Gearwrench and they work great , however some of their tools quality is starting to flop, specifically on the ratchet wrenches. But their ratchets are nice, I found that the 84 tooth seems to do best on a constant basis .
Great video as always brother
I've got Teq Pro and they seem to be the same as Gearwrench
You have quite a lot of tools and use the heck out of them! I might go get me a Teq Pro 60t chrome ratchet to test out and dedicate that video to you!
what kind of ratchet set was that? i’m getting into some gear wrench tools and i can really find for a good price is 200+ piece sets from home depot but they don’t ever let you know what kind of ratchet is in them
I thought the Quin topped out at a hundred and fifty? That's the only reason I didn't buy it because I need something that goes up to at least a hundred and seventy
It looks like Tekton is a great choice for the price!
I was just thinking that myself. The same breaking point as the Snap-on at a fifth the price.
Got the tekton 1/4 and 3/8 chrome sets and have held up at work everyday along with their deep 1/2 impact sockets
Very impressive video, luv my tractor supply
Someone mentioned it in a livestream that Tractor Supply was getting them in so I would expect to seem more trickle in over the rest of the year. The locking flex and compact ones will probably be Amazon or online or distributor/reseller items👌🏻
ClientGraphics does tractor supply warranty the ratchets or do you have to go thru Gearwrench?
They should.
Great video have the 84t great info. Would love to see a video on best warranty process from all the brands you have used. These days i lean toward warranty more then strengths
Do you have a way to monitor the heat of the metal when it breaks
I don’t. We could probably get a probe in there but I would thing it would change too much
Woah! You’re gonna do hazet vs vera. Cool
Good video
It be around the fit and feel of a Matco ratchet
You're not turning at a straight angle. Youre pulling it to one side you see that it tilts, so unnecessary stress on the tools. So makes me wounder what it actual ft lbs it is
Do you warranty the ratchets you break? If so do the companies give you any problems? Or just eat the cost since it’s kinda abuse?
Warranty some and toss others. The tool truck brands are the easiest to swap as is Harbor Freight and a few others. The worst experience so far was at Lowe’s
ClientGraphics interesting, thanks for the reply! Keep up the great videos!
Hey Chris I hope all is well with you and Amy !! LOL@me I still CRINGE every time you take a tool to failure 😡😂😆😡 looks like you will have more than 20 ratchets tested after the next group. That's amazing my friend. Another Great video 👍👍 Thanks for sharing your thoughts and videos Rodney
Thanks Rodney. Appreciate you watching and commenting!
Anybody know where I can find that chart online at the 8:10 mark?
Its too bad no one seems to want to test the WERA brand ratchet...
Maybe the next video Wera vs Hazet. Any other reasonable brand to complete against them with?
@@ClientGraphics Thanks... Hmm I will have to think about it
Tekton
Are those tekton numbers from the rachet that had the handle bend instead of the anvil breaking? I thought that was the biggest loser in the original comparison. I have a set of their pry bars that also flex way more than they should.
Yes, those are the numbers from that video. I’ll put a link to them in the comments.
Do u change shirts
Every time I walk into a tsc Superman
The audio was bad on the original intro with too much wind noise. I had to redo the intro at the store that didn’t have the ratchet since it’s closer to me on a different day and it’s amazing how the two fit together fairly decent. I enjoyed the fast speed through the store and audio👌🏻
Does anyone know if they are made in Taiwan or China?
As if the 120xp doesnt have the same torque numbers same manufacturer
wheres the stanley on the chart cuh
These numbers are breaker bar numbers.
Bye 👋 thanks
Is this a sponsored video?
No, this is not sponsored by any company and I actually went to Tractor Supply and purchased that tool with my own money. Shocking and refreshing at the same time, right!
cool
Thanks Dan🔥
Not bad, I think I'd still prefer my milwaukee ratchet!
No Comfort grip no good
The internals in the comfort grips are the same as the full chrome polished ones👌🏻
Dude rambles on to much
I bought a set of 3 ratchets 1/4, 3/8 , and 1/2 in the Canadian Tire Maximum line , they resemble what you have. They were on sale $50 CDN.
TS is not a company any American citizen should continue to supporting due to delusionally woke CEO.

They now have a 120 tooth ratchet . 2024
If you buy sata ratchet its the same thing as gearwrench but cheaper, I own lots of both brands. I own the 1/2 electric torque wrench from gearwrench and the 3/8ths electric torque wrench from sata they are the same on the inside when it come to the electronics.
Unfortunately these things are impossible to find.. at least here on Phoenix. Doesnt matter hoe good they are if you cant get your hands on em
Fantastic content
Sounds like ur luck has been like mine.. when yiu get new tools it feels like yiu hit a goldmine. Good luck with your future
This type of failure analysis is testing the metallurgy of the socket drive moreso than the internal gear and pawl design.
I have a few different Gearwrench ratchets in both 1/4" and 3/6" drive, and they're all fine, I have no complaints. But I really don't understand the Gearwrench marketing strategy. As far as I can see, they are still producing and selling ratchets in 72 tooth, 84 tooth, 90 tooth, 100 tooth and 120 tooth specs. Why?! It seems like they need to simplify their range a bit.
how about the gearwrench quick release ratchet?
I guessed 268.
Oh and they could use a battery drive to thread down then go to tourque setting.😂
Using a separate rachet for torque defeats the point
If they would incorporate a digital torque read on the rachet it may just be the ultimate.
This way the bolts etc would be to spec.
And you breaking of tool would have a flasher before it striped
will u still be able to buy the 84 tooth
will u still be able to but the 120xp
Hey. Can I take the 90 and put a Matco 88 kit in it like some yoyo did my 84 ? Lets put a 120 in a Matco 88 and a 240 in a Matco ! I want more teeffz. I only have about 7 left ! Pass the Crown Royal matey ! BTW. Just ordered a Koken 3/8 knurled handle today. 24 teeth...like my sister !
I don't see a purpose for this video. Project Farm did many different types of tests on ratchets, using many different manufacturers. The results in the Project Farm video are more comprehensive and informative.
10:24. Huh? The 90 tooth ratchet is nearly identical to the 90 tooth ratchet??
I have Duralast made by Gear wrench still going strong
Why are we testing accuracy of a torque adapter? 5 minutes in and i haven’t gotten any relevant info bro.
