Fabric Chamber Ratchet multi-tool


This neatly packaged tool from Fabric weighs 162g and includes Allen keys from 2 to 8mm (the 8mm bit snaps onto the 5mm), two Phillips and two flat-head screwdrivers, plus T10 and T25 Torx keys. All the tool bits live inside the ‘chamber’, which doubles up as the handle.

The pricier ratchet version we tested requires you to reverse the tool bit when switching from tightening to loosening. This is easy to do but means fiddlier jobs require a little more patience.

Three indents on each tool bit snap into the ratchet head, offering a solid connection and giving you enough range to attack hard-to-reach bolt heads. You can still apply pressure through the tool and onto the bolt when really torquing things up, but push down too hard and you’ll dislodge the tool bit.

Price 52$
