Spun off long bolts and threaded fasteners in seconds without slowing down for a ratchet mechanism. Add classic American manufacturing to your toolbox with this used Craftsman 3/8" Drive 16" Speeder Wrench.

When you need to spin down long thread bolts rapidly or break loose repetitive fasteners, nothing beats the continuous rotational motion of a classic speeder handle. The Craftsman E 42020 (LS0226) 3/8" Drive Speeder Wrench is engineered with a smooth, contoured hand grip and a wide crank shaft offset that lets you apply rapid, fluid circular motion with minimal effort.

This item is in great, fully functional used condition. As a vintage USA-made hand tool built from tough forged alloy steel, it shows typical cosmetic wear from previous toolbox storage and bench use—such as surface scuffs, light scratches, and minor finish patina—but the 3/8" drive anvil is square, true, and holds sockets firmly with its spring-loaded ball detent. Perfect for automotive service, machinery teardowns, and vintage tool collectors, this iconic speed wrench delivers reliable, long-lasting performance.

Key Features & Benefits

  • USA Vintage Forging: Built during the classic era of American tool manufacturing for exceptional durability and long service life.

  • Rapid Bolt Spinning: Crank handle configuration provides continuous $360^\circ$ rotation to run down long threads drastically faster than standard ratchets.

  • Smooth Rotating Top Handle: Ergonomic top spinner handle allows you to exert downward axial pressure with one hand while cranking with the other.

  • 3/8" Standard Square Drive: Works with any standard 3/8" drive metric or SAE socket, extension, or bit adapter.

  • Solid Alloy Steel Build: Heat-treated forged steel body offers rigid torque transmission without flexing under load.
