Impact wrench...
« on: 29 April 2013, 21:28:46 »

Think I've found the one I want (after consultation on here about torque and capabilities and such) and I believe it's one TuBby suggested (so thanks for that...not that you'll read this as you're probably still having your crack and sack sewn up  :o :o :o :o)

Anyway....

http://www.machinemart.co.uk/shop/product/details/clarke-cew1000-electric-impact-wrench#reviews

I love the fact it's NOT cordless as I really cant be bothered with having to charge it. but has masses of power I believe (450nm) and should be good enough for all suspension, crank pulleys etc etc according to the reviews). Also seems to be a great price compared to what Strap-on want  :o :o :o :o

What do we think before I hit the big red ''Paid'' button?

Fair enough Doz. Can you give me an idea of what you're comparing it to? i.e, has it ever failed to remove a stubborn bolt?

It's even struggled with a wheel nut which was tight but easy enough to get off with a breaker bar.

Should be good value for money

Just don't compare it to an air impact wrench as most garage ones are kicking out a minimum of 1500 lb -ft +
