AirCraft AT0016-18 Spacer For Air Ratchet Wrench
At a Glance: Replacement spacer ring for the AirCraft AT0016 air ratchet—keeps components correctly spaced for smoother engagement and less wear.
In a compact mechanism like an air ratchet, clearances are everything. A spacer might look simple, but it controls where parts sit, how they align, and how smoothly they move under load. The AirCraft AT0016-18 Spacer is a replacement spacer ring for the AirCraft Air Ratchet Wrench (AT0016 series). It helps set correct spacing and positioning between internal components—reducing end-float, improving engagement consistency and helping prevent premature wear. Perfect for rebuilds, repairs, and restoring that “tight and smooth” feel when a tool starts developing play or roughness.
Spacer rings are used to maintain proper gaps and component location in gear trains and rotating assemblies. Replacing a worn or distorted spacer helps the mechanism run more predictably and protects higher-value parts from uneven stress.

Features
- AT0016-series compatibility Designed as a replacement spacer for the AirCraft Air Ratchet Wrench range.
- Ring-style positioning part Helps control spacing and alignment within the assembly.
- Durable construction Built to handle vibration and repeated cycling in the tool.
- Service-friendly spare Ideal for gear/drive rebuilds and preventative maintenance.
Benefits
- Improves smoothness: Correct spacing helps reduce binding, rough engagement and inconsistent feel.
- Reduces internal play: Helps minimise end-float and looseness that can cause rattles or wear.
- Protects key components: Better alignment reduces uneven loading on gears, bearings and housings.
Extra Information
- Intended as a spare part for AirCraft Air Ratchet Wrench assemblies (AT0016 series).
- Replace if the spacer is worn, distorted, cracked, or if you notice excessive play in the mechanism.
- During rebuilds, inspect mating components (gears, sleeves, bearings and pins) for wear—spacers often show issues when other parts are also tired.
- If a parts diagram is available under the Documents tab, use it to confirm placement and the correct stack order.
Pro Tip
- Before reassembly, lay parts out in order and take a quick photo. Spacer stack order matters—and that one photo can save a lot of “why does this feel wrong?” later.
Safety
- Disconnect the air supply and bleed remaining pressure before opening the tool.
- Wear eye protection when disassembling—small parts can release unexpectedly.
- Keep the work area clean and organise parts to prevent incorrect reassembly.
- Do not force components into place; misalignment can damage gears and housings.
- After reassembly, test the tool at low pressure first to confirm smooth operation and correct engagement.
