DeWalt DCF510 20V Sealed Head Cordless Ratchet Review 

It should be noted - the 75 ft lbs of torque that they advertised on this is tightening torque, not break-away. Would be good to see if it lives up to the advertised specs.

Just a big drop of videos all at once from you guys lately. Love it.

Tim your on fire lately, pumping out good vids one after a another. Good quality as always. Thanks for the content

Lots of tool review channels come and go, but Tim Johnson is still out here producing quality content.

I love these tool reviews including testing. Keep up the good work. You are doing great.

Yes a pass through socket set would be good as well as a 1/4 anvil.

Always great reviews tim

Hey Tim, maybe DeWALT got that torque number from tightening not loosing bolts. Can you try running a bolt down all the way and then check what the tool tighten it to?

Just discovered your site and subscribed; really helpful. Thx

I love the dewalt toughbuilt Led Tape measure carry mine everyday comes in handy under vehicles doing custom Bumper and skid plate work 9:10 @Shop Tool Reviews

Thanks Brotha for the review

Best part of the video is the LED Tape Measurer plug. Slick!

I just looked up the spec for the milwaukee inside adapters, they are .63 as well, so the insider sockets should fit this as well.

Great vid! I'm getting mine from my Mac dealer next week. I already have the 12v dcf500 sealed head. As a mechanic i would never go back to the older designs.

Love it and my new dcf500 sealed head!

Reminds me of the New Milwaukee M12 Insider Ratchet @Shop Tool Reviews

I ordered this kit and they are advertised with 2 Powerstack batteries. I only received one so i got in touch with the company i purchased it from and then they forwarded the message to Dewalt, should be receiving my extra battery soon. That was my only issue. Other than that its a great tool.

I do tend to like the Torpedo Battery Ratchets better but i been liking my 20v and 12v dewalt Electrix Ratchets i will definitely pick one of these kits up i like they provide with the kit a Oil resistant power stack battery 5:28 @Shop tool Reviews

Nice job on Dewalt 20V

I still have a Craftsman C9 gearwrench passthrough flavor. Nice to see other alternatives. Now ya need to check out Milwaukee's version

i got one from acme tools for $160 yesterday. sitting here waiting for it to arrive. i hope they make a 1/4" attachment for it

Torque means a ton to me here in the rust belt. A ratchet that can't run it out even after it's broke loose is useless to me.

Ooo now this is interesting, a lot like the Mac interchangeable air ratchet

Running starts with these cordless ratchets are practically a requirement in the shop. If it can’t survive, in the trash it goes

Another great informative video as always. I’m a material handler technician ( forklift , order pickers , reach trucks etc) and the engineers gave no shits about us mechanics. I welcome all of these tools getting smaller and stronger because we all know the limited work space we have to deal with…do they make a 1/4” insert for this ? Thanks

I wonder if the Milwaukee sockets fit?

These tools are going so fast now that when tightening we need an auto stop function just like in the impact wrenches.

I would love to hear your opinion on which you think would be the best out of all the ratchets that are on the market. For example, best performance and best bang for your buck

It sure looked like it was jerking your hand a bit during tightening. I’m pretty sure that torque rating is measured during tightening not breaking free or loosening.

The big question for me is, does the tool have a spot to store the extra anvil?

Hi friend, can you set a 1/4 adaptater in this ratchet ?

You should review the new kobalt cordless ratchet

Hi! Can this tool be used manually, like a regular ratchet, or only automatically?

Nascar style Lmfao I call That a Neutral Drop When socket is spinning and You slam it on the fastener to break it free Good testing @Shop Tool Reviews

I seriously hope DeWalt is working on manufacturing pass through sockets that can be inserted into this and their dcf500 model to compete with the new Milwaukee insider that has a big advantage over this. I was actually about to buy the DeWalt until I saw that Milwaukee with the passthrough sockets.

he didnt torque down the bolt with the dwalt, then take the torque wrench and check to see if it tightens down to 75 ft lbs.

If dewalt made a low profile socket set that plugged directly into this tool without having to use the anvil I would buy it instantly. that would be amazing.

Found the kit with ratchet, 1 power stack battery and charger for $249. I might have to pick this up. Since it's $349 every where I checked.

Honest review *****

Im liking the switch

if they would only come out with 20 volt long reach ratchet

Those low profile sockets you were talking about.... Not sure about that, cause Milwaukee doesn't produce anything without 2 or 3 different patends on it, such as those low profile sockets that come with their pass-through cordless ratchet. Yes, I know, I'm not commenting on brand spank'n new video.😎 But, Algorithm.!? That being said, and having already used both, and being already established on both Milwaukee platforms. I have the old Milwaukee 3/8"-small head(cause it gets into small places. And bought it specifically for that purpose, not for it's power.)I'd rather Milwaukee bought the DeWalt head. I'm gonna be getting the DeWalt. This is a Complete Kit. That's also a great way to get people established on your battery platforms. I'm also gonna get the DeWalt 3/8" 12v ratchet, though I forget the model #. Guess I lost some nerd points for that. I'm also curious if DeWalt has or plans to release 20v 90°(I know everyone calls them 'Right Angle') impact which I'm also in the market for this year.. Between Milwaukee, DeWalt and SKIL, I'll probably drop close to $5,000.00 on tools this year, because I'm cutting the cords, and air-hose wherever possible or practice to do so.

Very nice! I’m excited for the 12v version, it’s supposed to be much higher rpm but less torque

My question is on the Milwaukee insider and this ratchet can the hex socket be used as a socket if so what sizes are these hex sockets on both tools. Or is this again manufacturers instructions/warranty

That kick from those electric ratchets looks like they'll break your wrist. Lol

Biggest onock on the flat battery is the handle. Ive got larger hands and that battery pack is in the way

Like some1 else said i think the torque # for ratchets may be the tightening spec not loosening and probably with the nut having jus a little time to build up speed not finger tight snug already

maybe an optical illusion, but that toolbag looks like it has a new (longer/slimmer) aspect ratio compared to the current dewalt toolbags (maybe about as wide as their 11" bag, but as long as their 15" bag?). very cool if so

As a regular consumer of Dewalt tools i hope in a future update they make this compatible with both 20v/12v system battery.

it’s not a “running start” it’s the tooth being in the correct position!

Can I use DCB203: 20V MAX XR Compact Li Ion Battery (2.0Ah) for this ratchet? Thanks

The question we're all thinking is the sealed head ratchet vs the new Milwaukee

The 'Sealed-Head' design does a lot, from keeping dust, grime, trash out! While keeping grease/lube inside, along with reinforcement. 3 HUGE PLUSES. Gentlemen..... sorry, I meant 'People' don't need any pretty lady techs hunting me down for a comment I made. This is why you rubber boots on some air powered ratchets that didn't use the 'Jacketed-design', though a rubber boot offers zero reinforcement.

Pretty nice ratchet but ....... They give you a 3/8 , 1/2 Anvils ....why not give you a 1/4 anvil as well . I get it...... They will prolly come out with a 1/4 stand alone ratchet...... but for the person who would like to use the robust style ratchet and smaller socket use . I know i would like to use all three anvils if i picked it up for myself .

No way it's getting 75 foot pounds at a 300 Rpm Speed should be a slower speed for higher torque @Shop Tool Reviews

Will my DCF900 Charger charge this battery?

How tight will it tighten a fastener

Craftsman used to have a pass-through ratchet, it was made by TTI so I'm surprised that Ryobi doesn't make one. There have been a few occasions where I had to run nuts down an exceptionally long bolt and a pass-through design would have been awesome.

If you HAD to pick one, one to use for the rest of your life would it be #1 or #2? 1. The DeWalt 2. The M12 Insider Ratchet Let me know if you see this comment. I really love the channel and trust your reviews.

It's like almost using a Air ratchet.. But cordless

Not bad if you’re on the DeWalt platform but it seems to me like a 20v version of the Milwaukee M12 Insider ratchet.

Torquing the bolts to 70 ft lbs does not mean it takes 70 ft lbs to break them loose.

Milwaukee beats them with long reach extended ratchet, not even close. This DeWalt is $400😁

I don’t think DeWalt makes tools for lazy people- there is nothing wrong with breaking the nut FIRST and ratcheting the rest off 😂😂😂😅 *and the torque value is tested at tightening, not loosening (NOT advertised as a breaking bar ratchet)

I’ve had the worst luck with everything brushless from dewalt. Love their brushed line, but man are the brushless giant piles of unreliable poop.

I just have to say cuz I hear people get this expression wrong all the time. When expressing that you don't care much it's not I could care less it's I couldn't care less because if you could care less that means that you care more than you necessarily need to but when you couldn't care less it means you care to the minimum of your ability. I couldn't care less because I pretty much already don't care.

I guess dewalt team has never worked on cars before because that battery size will be a nightmare to work with. If they make a smaller battery it would be better

Compre un DCF 512B y me duro solo 15 minutos, escasa mente lo prendí 👎🏽

Batteries??? Garbage! If thats the crap that were supposed to buy then I choose hand tools I already got.

I need a wife.

🔴🔥 HARD PASS! IM ALL BLOODY! #AllRedEverything #Milwaukee #EverythingMilwaukee Milwaukee Insider Ratchet BEATS this ALL DAY! ❤

Dewalt instantly to copy milwakee 😂😂

Ratchets are not impact tools

can you please include metric units besides your weird freedom measurements that nobody but you is using....or do you hate the rest of the world and dont want international viewers?

Long time in the making. Too long. I bought the ryobi+ long neck 1/4" and 3/8" quite a while ago.
