142 customers mention125 positive17 negative

Customers like the power of the wrench. They say it has a ton of power, it does not lack power, and it can take on any task requiring an impact wrench. The heaviness, backbone, and power to take on anything requiring a wrench is impressive. The impact is heavy, loud, and hits hard. It slaps a bolt off with ease and gets stubborn sub-frame bolts out.

"...This impact is heavy, loud and hits HARD! Compared to the 2130 it's much louder, slightly less ergonomic and seems to hit harder...." Read more

"...I must say that i love the power. I use it for tire rotation, brake jobs, crank pulley bolt removal, etc...." Read more

112 customers mention83 positive29 negative

Customers like the ease of use of the wrench. For example, they mention it's easy to remove lug nuts from wheels and most bolts without any trouble. The lugs spin off like a breeze, and it gets the jobs done without hesitation. It's fast for removing wheels and in some cases tightening nuts.

"...I wound up selling the impact for 20.00 because it wouldn't even remove lug nuts from tires...." Read more

56 customers mention47 positive9 negative

Customers like the torque of the wrench. For example, they say it has great power, breaking torque, and can easily handle both truck's lugs. It has enough torque to easily remove wheel lug bolts or nuts, and it didn't even move the crank when tightening or loosening. It's comfortable in the hands and has a variable torque setting.

"...The torque is great; I can't even turn lug nuts any further than this tool can by hand...." Read more

"For the price this impact has great breakaway torque and the installation torque is really good...." Read more

"This thing has tons of torque and I’m extremely happy with it." Read more

77 customers mention28 positive49 negative

Customers are mixed about the weight of the wrench. Some mention that it is quite heavy and sturdy, while others say that it's a bit heavy when you use it constantly.

"...-Surprisingly comfortable for a metal impact. It's a tad on the heavier side if that's a concern for you, but you can rest assured all of those..." Read more

Good Impact Wrench - Make sure compressor, hose, & fittings are up to the task
4 Stars
Good Impact Wrench - Make sure compressor, hose, & fittings are up to the task
Sturdy, good customer support. Don't trust impact wrench labels on compressor or rely fully on compressor SCFM @90 psi rating. Don't be fooled by rating advertised by impact wrench manufacturers. Ingersoll Rand is the only company I found that provides full specs (see attached image). The average air consumption rating seen on all impact wrenches doesn't tell you what SFCM rate is needed for air consumption under load. For example, if it says 4.5 SCFM @90 psi on the box, it will take 4-5 times that rate even if you are only using the tool for short bursts.The SCFH load @90 psi for this tool is 22 SCFM. IR tells me that the torque available at the wrench will drop some 14% for every 10 psi drop in pressure.Minimum hose size can be misleading too. For example, I tried my existing 3/8-in hose with 1/4-in connections, but would immediately loose some 45 psi (regulator to tool inlet) as soon as I pressed the trigger on the wrench. See images: 6.5 psi loss for hose without connectors + about 6-7 psi x2 for each 1/4-in MNPT connectors (one at each end of the hose). Add to that another 6-7 psi for each coupler (2) and each plug (2) used to connect the hose to the compressor and to the tool inlet.I am modifying my setup with 1/2-in x 25-ft hose with 3/8-in MNPT thread connectors, and changing to 3/8-in Milton V-Style High Flow couplings and connectors. Later, if the need arises, I may also change my 1/4-in regulator on the compressor to a higher flow 3/8-in version and use 3/8-in fittings wherever possible to replace the 1/4-in ones.I'm using a Porter Cable Single Stage Belt Drive PXCM201 compressor rated at 5.3 SCFM @90 psi. I will have to rely on its 20-gal tank to provide short intervals of air impact tool operation. However, as a minimum, I will have to eliminate pressure losses found in the hose and all the hose connections as described above.
