Wow a powerhouse!

This impact feels so light but packs a punch. Removed head bolts like a champ!

Good Power

Use it to remove nuts and blots with an average torque of 150 ft lbs with no problems. Largest lug nut removed was 33mm torqued to 500 ft lbs and was slow but worked on all 60 of them. Overall great gun for the money.

Big name power without bug name price.

Being in any wrenching related job it seems everyone has either the cheapest of the cheap impact (harbour freight, lowes, home depot) or the absolutely most expensive impact (snapon, mac, Marco, cornwell) but no one ever has the middle man or the under dog and that's where this impact lies at. I had the nitrocat 1250k before this one and loved it for 7 years till the anvil snapped so I ordered this one. For the price you are getting an absolutely great gun, the grip is extremely ergonomic in the hand and she kicks like a mule without the sound of a small block chevy with open headers. The only downfall I see with this gun that may become a future issue is the direction/speed selector switch is a bit cheesy and flimsy but for the most part I can not complain.

Very powerful

This unit has an insane amount of power compared to others that I’ve used. It is a bit heavier my other one. It is an excellent product with a great price.
