Wera 838 RA S Ratchet Screwdriver Handle

The Wera 838 RA S is a compact ratchet screwdriver handle designed for fast, efficient bit-driving without the need to reposition your grip. Accepting any standard 1/4" hex shank bit, it's a versatile addition to the toolkit of any electrician, joiner, or contractor working in confined or repetitive screwdriving applications. At the heart of the tool is a ratchet mechanism fully integrated within the handle, featuring 36 teeth and a 10° return angle. This fine toothing allows smooth, rapid screwdriving with minimal arc movement — and the ability to "spin" the handle for high-speed driving when needed. The three-position switch provides intuitive selection between clockwise, counterclockwise, and locked modes, making reversals quick and instinctive. A strong permanent magnet in the bit holder keeps bits securely in place throughout use. The multi-component Kraftform Plus handle is shaped to fit the hand naturally, distributing pressure evenly across the palm to reduce fatigue and help prevent blisters and calluses during extended use.
