A ratcheting wrench head for use with a torque wrench has spaced apart first and second jaws extending from a base portion to define an opening for accommodating a bolt or nut to be rotated. A ratchet member is movably mounted in a through hole formed in the second jaw between an outer surface and an inner surface of the second jaw. A biasing member is located in the through hole of the second jaw and forces the ratchet member against a portion thereof. Inner surfaces of the first jaw and the second jaw are particularly constructed to enhance ratcheting performance of the wrench head relative to the bolt or nut. The through hole is formed with a dirt slot for enabling removal of foreign material from the wrench head.
