Title: A Different Type of Snap-On Inline Ratchet...Very Old
Post by: mikeswrenches on October 26, 2012, 01:52:06 PM

Here is a shot of a very old Snap-On inline ratchet adapter.  Actually it is the predecessor to the current inline ratchet adapters that we are used to seeing.  This one is marked patent pending and is one of Snap-On's earliest patent applications.

From what I understand these were made in three different versions.  I have only ever laid hands on this type.
