Quality not bad but too expensive.

Great product. Protects the tool pretty well. Kind of hard to get on due to thickness but that’s what makes it good.
Antonio Wuckert (verified owner) –
Excellent fit and looks great. Cushions the business end of ratchet and helps prevents scratches on painted surfaces. Doesn’t interfere with attachment of socket.

The is a great addition to the tool. It’s no just to protect it, but helps to protect whatever you’re working around. It’ll help keep dirt, grease and chemicals out of your tool. Stretch it a little to get it started over the end and then it slides right into place. Let the replaceable rubber boot take all of the abuse and protect one of your soon to be favorite tools.

The Rubber Boot for my 3/8-inch Extended Reach Ratchet fits great. Milwaukee recommends the boot for protection for the extended ratchet if it is frequently used. I got the boot because it seemed like the right thing to do to protect the tool. At room temperature, the Rubber Boot was able to be stretched over the end of the ratchet. The directional switch and the 3/8 drive have plenty of room to operate after the Boot is installed. The Rubber Boot does have the Milwaukee logo on one side, and this looks the best when installed on the directional switch side (top side) of the tool. I like the Milwaukee Rubber Boot and would recommend it to anyone who has a M12, 3/8 inch extended reach drive ratchet made by Milwaukee.

Thing is an absolute monster, and the extended reach is perfect.

Once you get it on it fits good and will protect the head of your ratchet

The rubber boot itself is made well and the rubber feels tough with a little bit of stretch. I wish they would make these for the regular ratchets also that are not the extended ones. The rubber feels like the same material like the boot for the impact wrench. It’s definitely worth to invest to protect my tools and I know the rubber material can take the abuse Like tools do. Even after it sitting in my tool bag and getting smooshed and tossed around it still kept its shape. Definitely great protection for my ratchet but I wish it was available and for the non-extended ratchets.

This rubber boot is a great add on for the Milwaukee M12 Extended Reach Ratchet. NOTE: This boot is for the Extended Reach Ratchet model–not for the standard shorter ratchet.The rubber boot fits the head of the extended reach ratchet perfectly. The boot protects the ratchet head, as well as preventing the ratchet head from damaging whatever you’re working on. There is a hole in the back of the boot that allows you to twist the switch on the back of the ratchet head to reverse it.The boot is a bit tricky to put on the ratchet. I put a little bit of grease on the wrench head and the opening of the rubber boot. It took a few attempts, but I was eventually able to stretch the boot over the ratchet.It fits like a glove and is high quality rubber.

Milwaukee and The Home Depot should be shamed for the price this item sells for. It is terribly overpriced. This item should be included with the tool, not sold as an accessory.
Haylee Mueller (verified owner) –
Way overpriced, but fits perfectly. Use a heat gun or similar device to install. Be careful not to overheat!

If you own a Milwaukee M12 FUEL Extended Reach Ratchet than I have to say, you gotta have this Milwaukee M12 FUEL 3/8 inch Extended Reach Ratchet “Rubber Boot”. This rubber boot does two things that are both important to me: One, it protects the tool from dirt and debris. Two it protect the work. Paint jobs and interior trim scratches are not cheap. Also, working on high end vehicles and even under the hood in some cases, the rubber boot protects against damage from bumps from the tool. This is a great accessory. The rubber is extremely durable and fits this ratchet head like a glove. Two thumbs up Milwaukee!

This rubber boot is a must have if you own an M12 extended reach ratchet. It does a great job of covering up the ratcheting mechanism and provides some impact protection against those inevitable drops. Dropped mine from a height of ~4 feet and it landed on the head. Tool was undamaged as was my floor. Getting the boot on was a bit tricky since it’s a snug fit. Definitely recommend it!
