Working in dirty environments (metal filings, dust). Lack of Maintenance: Dry internal gears. Solutions (How to fix it):

A ratchet becomes "bloccato" when the direction switch gets stuck, the socket won't release, or the ratcheting mechanism jams mid-operation. This is usually caused by excessive torque, debris (dirt/rust), lack of lubrication, or an internal component failure (broken pawl or spring). Pros:

Frequently, the socket becomes permanently attached to the anvil. Common Causes:

To give you a better idea of how to fix it, could you tell me: is the ratchet? Is it stuck in one direction, or completely jammed? Is the socket also stuck on the head? I can give you a more specific repair tip!

If internal parts are broken, you may need a repair kit or to utilize a lifetime warranty on premium brands.

Apply penetrating oil (e.g., WD-40 ) into the selector switch and anvil, then work it back and forth. Clean Debris: Use compressed air to blow out metal filings.
