RYOBI ONE+ 18V Multi-Size Ratchet (Tool Only) PCL280B | 1/4, 3/8, 1/2 Drive

Expand your 18V ONE+ toolkit with flexible drive options

The RYOBI 18V ONE+ Multi-Size Ratchet (PCL280B) complements your existing ONE+ collection by offering a single tool that accepts 1/4 in., 3/8 in., and 1/2 in. drive sockets. The 1/2 in. anvil also houses a 1/4 in. hex insert, enabling quick bit driving without swapping tools. A simple slide of the release latch changes the anvil size, helping you tailor the tool to the task at hand. With up to 35 ft-lbs of torque and a top speed of 260 RPM, this ratchet is well suited for automotive tweaks, cabinet installs, and assembly or maintenance work in tight spaces.

Key capabilities are designed for real-world use: you can navigate cramped engine bays, furniture assemblies, or equipment installs while keeping your hands in comfortable grips and your trigger under precise control. The ratchet head features four selectable positions, so you can orient the head to suit your angle and reach. The metal paddle trigger offers a responsive, durable feel, making speed adjustments intuitive as you work. Dual onboard LED worklights brighten corners, bed lines, and shadowed areas to improve visibility when light is limited.

What makes the Multi-Size Ratchet convenient

• Versatile drive compatibility: use 1/4, 3/8, or 1/2 inch sockets with a single tool.
• Flexible bit driving: 1/2 inch anvil includes a 1/4 inch hex insert for quick bit changes.
• Controlled power and speed: up to 35 ft-lbs torque and 260 RPM for consistent turning.
• Ergonomic, adaptable design: 4-position rotating head and a variable speed metal paddle trigger for comfortable operation in varied grips.

Real-world benefits and system integration

This tool is part of the RYOBI 18V ONE+ System, which means it shares the same battery platform as hundreds of cordless products. This can simplify battery management and extend your usable tool set without adding complexity. The PCL280B is ideal for automotive tweaks, home improvement tasks, and routine maintenance where you need a compact yet capable wrench on hand. The package includes the ratchet body, reversible 1/4 in. and 3/8 in. anvils, a 1/2 in. anvil with 1/4 in. hex drive, and operator manuals; batteries and chargers are sold separately.

In summary

Whether you’re tackling a car repair, assembling furniture, or performing on-site maintenance, the RYOBI ONE+ Multi-Size Ratchet provides adaptable drive options, a sturdy grip, and visibility-enhancing LEDs to help you work efficiently. The combinations of torque, speed, and head positioning offer possibilities rather than guarantees, and results will vary by task and user technique.
