The fixed box end has a flush side to maximize surface contact with a fastener as well as a raised side for finger clearance and to fit into recessed areas.

Ratcheting Flex Head

The ratcheting end reduces the need to re-engage the fastener repeatedly. The flex joint sweeps smoothly through 180 degrees without any set positions, allowing the wrench to access fasteners around obstacles.
