Need Specialty Ratchet Wrench
(OP)
Bkgrnd: Currently we have bolts that over time tighten and rust in place. The current procedure is to use a 1" socket head and handle with the appropriate extensions to break the bolts loose. The handles on these bow considerably and the ratcheting heads frequently fail. The current situation does not allow for air or hydraulic wrenches to be utilized. The workmen have suggested a non reversing socket wrench. They have a friend of a friend ... who used one. So I have googled it about every way I can think and cannot find the maker of a one way (non reversing) ratchet. The tool they describe reverses by flipping it over. One way drives it tight flip it over and then drive is for loosening. I am looking for a 1" drive socket wrench that does not reverse. That might provide the workmen the solution to the problem.

The larger ones, up to 2 1/8", are made by Proto. These are still not to break nuts.
If this is a big problem you should look at the Swench wrench. If this doesn't work get the nut splitter or flame wrench.

The normal process would be to break a nut and then use the gear wrench if required.

Somehow flogging sounds like something that should be done at the mast with a cat 'o nine tails, not to a wrench, but that is just me.
