Title: Another mystery ratchet
Post by: moparthug on November 05, 2017, 10:36:36 AM

1/2 drive, 10 inches long, works great (of course), and the only markings are a small letter U. Any ideas?

It's an unmarked Plomb WF 38 made for the government during WWII.

Great! And that makes sense now, also found with this were 4 war issue Plomb wrenches, a 1220-HC, 1222-AC, 1230, and a 8161.

As always, many thanks.
