AIMS Industrial stocks over 250 ratchets and sockets from Trax, Ko-Ken, Stahlwille, Champion, Super Tools, Garrick Herbert and Maxigear — one of the most comprehensive socket and ratchet ranges available from an Australian industrial supplier.

Our range covers 1/4", 3/8" and 1/2" drive ratchets, metric and imperial hex sockets, deep sockets, impact sockets, multi-drive socket sets and specialist socket types for automotive, maintenance, engineering and industrial applications.

Ratchets

• 1/4" Drive Ratchets: Fine-tooth ratchets for small fasteners in tight spaces. Used in automotive, electronics and precision mechanical work where a 3/8" drive is too large.
• 3/8" Drive Ratchets: The most common workshop drive size, balancing reach and torque for general automotive, maintenance and engineering fastener work.
• 1/2" Drive Ratchets: Heavy-duty ratchets for larger fasteners, wheel nuts and high-torque applications. Available in standard and long-handle configurations.
• Flex-Head and Swivel Ratchets: Ratchets with articulating heads for access to fasteners at angles where a fixed-head ratchet cannot be used. Available across 1/4", 3/8" and 1/2" drive sizes from Ko-Ken and Stahlwille.

Sockets

• Metric Hex Sockets: Standard 6-point and 12-point metric sockets in shallow and deep configurations, covering common fastener sizes from 6mm to 50mm+. Available individually and in sets.
• Imperial Hex Sockets: SAE/imperial sockets for equipment manufactured to inch fastener standards — common in American-made machinery, agricultural equipment and older vehicles.
• Deep Sockets: Extended-length sockets for fasteners with long exposed thread, recessed bolt heads and spark plugs. Deep sockets are available in metric and imperial for 1/4", 3/8" and 1/2" drive.
• Impact Sockets: Thicker-walled, black-finish sockets designed to withstand the high-torque impulses of pneumatic and electric impact drivers. Standard chrome sockets must not be used with impact tools.
• Socket Sets: Comprehensive socket and ratchet sets in carry cases for workshop, vehicle and field service use. Available from Trax, Champion and Maxigear in configurations from compact 40-piece to full 200-piece professional sets.
