I had to bring it to a dewalt service center (which is 40 miles away from my locaton) to make sure that it is working as expected. From the feel alone while using it, it was far more powerful than dewalt. I ordered this milwaukee after returning a dewalt impact wrench from another seller. I hope this review will help those of you who are in a quandary of choosing what the best impact wrench for personal use to buy. But sad to say the dewalt can't even loosen the hand tightened lug nuts of my SUV. It arrived just in time and it loosened all my lug nuts incredibly with ease. I decided to return it since I don't have any use for it except for rotating and changing tires of my cars, and of course I paid for the return shipping since there was nothing wrong with it.
The dewalt was my first choice because its specs says it has 345ft/lbs of torque compared to the milwaukee of only 300. Expectedly I was told it was working perfectly. Make no mistake like I did and save some bucks by going with MILWAUKEE. Then I ordered the milwaukee from amazon(unfortunately it was only my second choice since it was less powerful than dewalt per spcs).
So instead Of Spending Your Hard Earned Money On Cheap Tool's, and Having To Replace Every Little Bit. So I Started Buying Tool's That Cost A Little More, And started Getting some Use Out Of Them. It May Cost more. Use Them Hard. And It Work's Great Every Time You Pick It Up To Use. But Never Got Any Use Out Of Them. But They Never Let Me Down. And Continuos For Hard day's Work.
Which I take Care Of My Tool's Anyway. I've Dropped Them, and Hard. Polish And Wipe Off Every Time I Use. But Milwakee Build's A Great Tool That Will Last You for Year's To Come, with Out ever Wondering If it Will Work The Next Time You Pick It Up. You Cannot Go Wrong With This Brand. You can Buy Cheap tool's, and I Have.
But You Do Not Have To Replace It For Y-E-A-R-S. About Like i Care For My First Born. Sometime's Not Putting Them Down. They Are Tough. Like Milwakee, It Is a High Quality Tool. and That's The Truth.
Just Buy A Milwakee And You May Have It a Lifetime.Thank's for Reading, God Bless But That's The Life Of a Tool.
Great pricing and very reasonable shipping rates. Wanted to purchase impact gun for years. Finally decided to buy one. Could not be happier. To date tool has paid for itself in reduced labor costs.
Sorry, I can't review this wrench.It and all my other tools were nabbedby some unscrupled fool.The case looked good as well as the tool.They must have needed it more than me.
How much torque applied depends on how hard you push on the tool. The garage torqued it way too much the last time I had the timing belt changed so I paid a local garage mech ten dollars to break it free. That and a little Medium grade Loktite should keep things nice and tight until the next time.There are similar models, but there are several things I like about this impact wrench above the others. I also like it over the rocker switch since it is similar to working a drill.
The last thing I liked about the kit is that it comes with a case and a few sockets. The sockets only add to the value since these can get expensive. Again, this is a directional switch similar to a drill. I originally purchased the Milwaukee to remove the crankshaft pulley bolt on my Honda, but couldn't get it off the first time. He retorqued it enough to get home and I was able to do everything else just fine.Everything else went well and the Milwuakee had no trouble removing lug nuts and other nuts/bolts. The lowest torque is 100 ft-lb and I guessed when torquing the crankshaft bolt to 130 ft-lb. This may be minor, but being that I'm not using the tool all of the time, it's nice to have it nicely packed away and ready to grab when needed.
With the current $25 discount for purchases over $199, it only makes sense to spend a little more and get a lot more.I'll be using it again for mounting a tow hitch and other general automotive work. As it turns out, even the garage air impact wrench had a little trouble and that guy could deliver 600 ft-lb or torque. The first big thing I liked is the variable speed which is nice when you just want to snug-up a nut or bolt. Well worth buying. The second big thing I liked about the wrench is the switch for switching between forward and reverse.
