What happens here

A demonstrator from Accelerated Fastening, LLC presents the "Ratchet Drill," a tool designed to make overhead drilling easier, safer, and more ergonomic. It works with any cordless drill (hammer drills, regular drills, SDS Max drills). The device provides a 6:1 mechanical advantage, allowing users to apply up to 300 lbs of pressure on the drill. This eliminates the need for ladders or scaffolds in many situations, reduces fatigue and body mechanics issues, and minimizes dust exposure by moving the worker further away from the drilling point.

Goal: Improve safety and ergonomics for overhead drilling tasks.

Tools and materials

  • Cordless Drill — Providing the drilling power, integrated into the Ratchet Drill system
  • Drill Bit — Drilling holes
  • Ratchet Drill Accelerated Fastening — Assisting with overhead drilling by providing mechanical leverage
