Abstract
A reversible ratchet wrench includes a main body, a drive gear housed within a gear end of the main body, and a pawl assembly housed within a pawl end of the main body. Further included are a reversing lever, a screw for securing the reversing lever to the pawl assembly, and a coverplate for retaining the drive gear and pawl assembly within their respective gear and pawl ends in the main body. The coverplate is coupled to the screw in a way which permits rotation of the reversing lever relative to the coverplate.
