Crescent 3/8 In. Drive Teardrop Ratchet 72 Teeth

Crescent is a premier hand tool brand from Apex Tool Group, one of the largest hand tool manufacturers in the world. The brand is often associated with its most famous product, the Crescent brand adjustable wrench. In 1907, a Swedish immigrant and inventor Karl Peterson founded the Crescent Tool Company. Soon after that, he introduced America’s first open-end adjustable wrench, a revolutionary concept that replaced an entire set of dedicated- size wrenches. The Crescent adjustable wrench was extremely successful. It was widely imitated but never duplicated. The Crescent adjustable wrench became one of the most essential tools in the toolbox of generations of professional tradesmen – well-known and well-regarded as an iconic hand tool that was proven and reliable. In fact, after his historic solo transatlantic flight in 1927, Charles Lindbergh was quoted saying he carried only “gasoline, sandwiches, a bottle of water and a Crescent wrench and pliers.” In the years that followed, Crescent introduced many improvements, making its wrenches lighter, stronger and more versatile. The brand grew to include many more sizes and types of adjustable wrenches, plus a wide selection of pliers, mechanics hand tools and toolsets.
