| 28th October 2009: Snap-on Tools, brand leader in tools, tool storage and diagnostic equipment for the automotive market, has announced the introduction of its innovative new low profile 210RAFM ratchet/socket set.
The new 10-piece 3/8” drive metric 210RAFM low profile ratchet/socket set has been designed to allow professional technicians all the speed, power and durability they require to handle challenging jobs in tight quarters quickly and efficiently. The set includes the 80-tooth low profile Dual80 technology ratchet and nine 12 point low profile sockets. Because the system is up to 33% shorter than the competition, the combination of the low profile ratchet and socket has more clearance in the tightest working areas. This is especially beneficial as vehicles become smaller and, in particular, engine compartment areas less accessible.
“At Snap-on we pride ourselves on not simply providing the highest quality tools available but also on our ability to predict future market needs then creating the required product in advance of customer demand,” says Terry Barcham, European Managing Director of Snap-on Tools. “We listen closely to our customers and what we have established is that they want from a ratchet is strength, accessibility, durability, low-ratcheting torque, together with a mechanism to keep out dirt.
“The 210RAFM recently received a Top 20 Tools Award from the leading US MOTOR Magazine. This extensive and flexible new range is, we believe, a perfect example of Snap-on’s quest for innovation and all our research indicates that this product will be extremely well received by the UK market.”
