Title: cordless impact
Post by Dietzsch_Racing25 on 04/27/09 at 1:47pm

Who makes the best cordless impact wrench?

I know to avoid the harbor freight special (first hand). Are there any other brands to avoid?

Thanks,

CD

300 #'s ???

Am I stupid for only torqueing my wheels to 100#'s?

No just the more torque the better for removing them.

I have had a DeWalt 18v for over 3 years now and never let us down.

I think they are over 400 ft lb off.

I know the Snap On's are good though

We used Snap- On for a couple of years and it was absolutely flawless. I'd have to bet the DeWalt is pretty strong too. Chad

It has been my experience with cordless power tools, that the batteries fail long before the tool ever does.

If someone made a bad a$$ line of batteries that lasted a couple of years and fit all makes of tools, they would make a fortune

Snap on the best, 480 ft lbs of torque, pricey but the best

Snap on also makes a drill , 3/8 impact and a sawzall that take the same battery. High dollar stuff but it works great...
