2. Socket wrench - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Socket_wrench

   Socket set with ratchet (above), four hex sockets and a universal joint. A socket wrench (or socket spanner) is a type of spanner (or wrench [1] in North American English) that uses a closed socket format, rather than a typical open wrench/spanner to turn a fastener, typically in the form of a nut or bolt.

3. Breaker bar - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breaker_bar

   A breaker bar is able to create a larger amount of rotational force compared to a standard socket wrench. A standard breaker bar is strong enough to allow the user to apply up to 2,500 pound-feet (3,400 N⋅m) of torque without breaking the bar. [3] A high-end 1/2" socket wrench can withstand a maximum of 500 pound-feet (680 N⋅m) of torque. [4]

4. Power wrench - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_wrench

   An air ratchet wrench is very similar to hand-powered ratchet wrenches in that it has the same square drive, but an air motor is attached to turn the socket drive. Pulling the trigger activates the motor which turns the socket drive. A switch is provided to change which direction the socket drive turns. [1]

5. Ratchet (device) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ratchet_(device)

   A ratchet consists of a round gear or a linear rack with teeth, and a pivoting, spring-loaded finger called a pawl (or click, in clocks and watches [1] [2]) that engages the teeth. The teeth are uniform but are usually asymmetrical, with each tooth having a moderate slope on one edge and a much steeper slope on the other edge.

6. Screwdriver - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screwdriver

   The tool used to drive a slotted screw head is called a standard, common blade, flat-blade, slot-head, straight, flat, flat-tip, [6] or "flat-head" [7] screwdriver. This last usage can be confusing, because the term flat-head also describes a screw with a flat top, designed to install in a countersunk hole .

7. List of screw drives - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_screw_drives

   The hex drive is better than square drive for locations where surrounding obstacles limit wrenching access, because smaller wrench-swing arcs can still successfully rotate the fastener. Metric sizes of the hex are specified by ISO 4032 and ISO 4033, plus ISO 4035 for Jam Nuts, and ISO 4014 and ISO 4017 for hex cap screws, ISO 4018 for Hex head ...
