Abstract
An air ratchet holder for use in supporting an air ratchet tool includes a semicylindrical cradle portion having an end cap and a hook secured thereto. A C-shaped clasp means are secured within the interior of the semicylindrical cradle and are adapted to grasp the neck kportion of an air ratchet tool and secure it within the cradle interior. A hook is secured to the upper portion of the cradle to permit attachment to the under portion of a vehicle supported upon a hoist or the like. In an alternate embodiment, a magnetic clasp is used in place of the hook to provide for magnetic attachment of the air ratchet holder to a convenient metal member of the vehicle. An aperture in the cradle portion permits the air ratchet to be received within the holder in a reverse position.
