    Tighten or loosen fasteners with a socket or bit—these tools have a magnet for attaching both. Pivot the head freely to drive fasteners at odd angles. Or, slide the switch to lock the head in place at set increments. When you don’t need a lot of torque to tighten your fastener, twist these tools as you would a screwdriver. A ratcheting mechanism lets you turn fasteners without removing or repositioning.
