Next on my list: small impact wrenches

[ISurvivednmu]

I really like my impact wrenches but my large 1/2" is so freaking heavy when working with it for long periods of time that I keep looking for other solutions. I do not need 1,200 ft pounds of torque all the time!

I follow these guys and it cost me too damn much money, but after a week, they have me thinking about getting some small impact wrenches for normal day to day jobs.

What do you guys think of these?

For small jobs, it seems you could really speed things up?

I have one for the shop and I love it for line maintenance. Get a set of these while you're at it to keep yourself from over torquing things.

I have a 3/8 bluepoint air,i love it. my ir is a lot of weight..its pricey,but I rarely use my 1/2 in now.something like 300ft/lbs and less than 3 lbs if I recall

if you are looking battery,check out the little Makita impact/drill set 10v,for like $109 at amazon,they rock,light as a feather

^^ The makita 10v impacts are good. I have a Bosch PS41-2A 12v and it works great! I love everything about it with the exception of the light...it doesn't have the extended 'stay-on' feature where it remains on after letting go of the trigger. Other than that it is great and works for a ton of stuff!

I do have the Milwaukee M18 Fuel 2763-20 1/2" Impact and it is a beast! It hasn't met anything it can't break loose.

Thinking about a Dewalt, but have also had very good luck with Makita cordless tools.....


OK after checking around I have decided that they are spensive!

I have a 3/8" Central Pneumatic impact wrench and I love mine. It's so much lighter than some of my other drills, which makes it easier to work on things longer. It is definitely something that I would recommend everyone have in their shop.
