Drive size first, since sockets and bars all have to agree on it. 1/4 inch for small fasteners, 3/8 inch general, 1/2 inch for wheel and suspension work, 3/4 inch for commercial.

The shortest that reaches. Bars run 50mm to 500mm here, and a long bar reaches a deep fastener but loses feel at the socket and can flex under load.

One where the head passes through the handle, so the drive can be presented from either side. That suits a fastener approached from an awkward direction without turning the whole tool over.

With a flexible extension bar, which bends between the handle and the socket. The 1/4 inch flexible bar at 125mm covers small fasteners behind something else.

No. Impact-rated bars are made to take the hammering an impact wrench delivers; a chrome bar can shatter under it. The impact bars here are stated as such on the listing.

With an adaptor, which steps between drive sizes. That lets an existing socket set run on a different handle, though torque should be kept within what the smaller drive is rated for.

Drive size is the first thing to settle because it fixes what the ratchet will carry. The four drives here are 1/4 inch for small fasteners, 3/8 inch as the general size, 1/2 inch for wheel and suspension work and 3/4 inch for commercial fasteners. Sockets and bars all have to agree on it. Getting the drive wrong means buying a second set of sockets rather than a second handle.

Extension length is chosen against the depth of the fastener, and the range runs 50mm to 500mm. A short bar keeps feel at the socket; a long bar reaches a bolt set deep but loses that feel and can flex under load, which is why the shortest bar that reaches is usually the right one.

Ratchet action decides how the tool works in a confined space. A reversible ratchet changes direction with a lever. A push through mechanism lets the head pass through the handle, which suits a fastener approached from either side. A flexible extension bends round an obstruction between the handle and the socket. Reversible action is on almost every handle here, so the decision is usually between reversible and push through.

Impact-rated bars are made to take the hammering an impact wrench delivers, which a chrome bar is not. Adaptors step between drive sizes so an existing socket set can be used on a different handle. Questions go over WhatsApp on 07754288583 with the drive size already owned. Draper run the Elora ladder across the drives with Sealey covering the same sizes alongside.
