Lots of breaking torque at 90lbs. Surprised me for a company I never heard of. Great price. Love the grip sits in the hand more like a pistol. Will be buying more nitrocat products in the near future.
Gun gets dirty but grease wipes right off.
Lots of power
Lots of power in a little gun!
I was personally looking for a 3/8 impact that had a lot of power but also light weight and cheap. I understand that most of the time all that doesn't happen so i new i was going to have to compromise on something. I have many other Aircat brand tools which i absolute love and love the power and quietness of them plus they don't cost a fortune to purchase as other brands. I have tired many 3/8 impact previous before this one and many just do not have enough power or strain your arm while holding due to the weight. We have a independent supplier that occasionally comes to us offers us deals on tools and one of which was this impact. They wanted upward of $350 + tax for this impact and i really couldn't see myself purchasing a impact for that price so i thought i could find it cheaper on Amazon which of course i did. When i did purchase this, they wasn't too many reviews so i didn't really know if it was something worth purchasing or something i should avoid because reviews are everything when purchasing something. You get someones insight on the product! Therefore i took a gamble on purchasing this. After over a year of daily use i can say i am very satisfied but i have noticed advantages and disadvantages about the gun which i will state a few.
Advantages:
Power, using the gun it has a tremendous amount of power. I have a Aircat 1150 1/2 impact and can break off lug nuts with ease, this 3/8 will do the exact same. This impact will break off lug nuts torqued over 300 ft lb of torque which is insane. It will remove most fasteners without hesitation. Now i personally sometimes don't think and just set in reverse and put the socket on the fastener and pull the trigger and snap goes the bolt. You have to be very careful when removing fasteners because if your trigger happy it could break completely off (which i have done a few times.)
Settings, the impact has 3 settings for forward (low, medium, high.) It is great because you can set how much torque you want the fastener go to. I am not exactly sure how much each is but it is a benefit to have.
Weight, it impact itself is surprisingly lightweight. It is not very heavy where you are going to strain your arm using it. It is comfortable to hold but won't cause pain in your hand.
Quiet, if you have a LOUD impact then upon using this you will see how quiet this is. I couldn't believe an impact could be this quiet. It is not wispier quiet but it is most certainly quieter than most impacts on the market. I have a technician beside be that has a VERY LOUD impact and i can't even stand it at times. I throw s*** at him all the time and keep telling him to buy a new one but he is waiting for it to break (he said the 7 years ago.)
Price, price point on this is very reasonable (on Amazon) you are definitely getting your moneys worth for the gun. It has power, lightweight, quiet, and the price is all in 1.
Disadvantages
Reverse torque, i personally wish this gun had this where you can set how much torque you have in reverse as like the forward feature because that way you can dial in how much power to want to remove a fastener. My old gun has this feature that i enjoyed but they don't make that gun anymore so therefore i can't purchase it again plus there wasn't much torque.
Length, the length of the gun is long. I personally wish the impact was short so i could get this into tighter spaces. This isn't a impact where you are going to squeeze into a tight spot to get at something. You would need a swivels, extensions, and other attachments to be able to use the impact but it has enough power to be able to remove the fastener but not be able to get at it. When i purchased this, Aircat didn't have anything else on the market but today they have a stubby impact which is able to get into tight area with ease but also more expensive.
Overall, the impact is working out well and liked my purchase of this impact even though this impact is quite long in length. It has enough power to do most applications without having to break out the big 1/2 in impact. The price is great for what you are getting and would definitely recommend this impact to anyone because this a good buy.
A Little more torque would put this higher, but having to switch back to my half inch a lot of times sort of breaks the flow.
