This Milwaukee 18 volt impact wrench is unreal!!!!!!pI have owned it for three months now and I have yet to findbrits limmit. Tire lugg nuts are a joke evan on a 18 wheeler!brI have driven 3/4 inch by 10 inch long lag bolts with no pilot brholes, straight thru 4x6 beams into stucco and thru the wall studs no problem!!! Yes I said with no pilot holes.brAnd just for fun I drove a one inch by 12 inch long lag bolt intobrthe end of a pressure treated 4x6, with ease.pI removed a rusted 7/8 inch nut that was imposssible to do by hand. The tool is big and heavy no doubt about it but not toobrbig or too heavy. It does have excellent ballance and is extremley rugged. This much power in a tool does have its downbrside, after removeing 4 tires and replacing them the battery isbrshowing signs of fatigue and after 4 of the 3/4 inch by 10 inchbrlag bolts the battery is dead. (those are huge bolts)pIf you do this kind of thing often your better off with a cordedbrimpact gun. But I have found the cordless to be very handy.brIf the tool stands the test of time its a huge winner!!!!!!

Milwaukee has the Power

18v Milwaukee tools are my favorite and I've used a lot of different ones. I've got the drill, reciprocating saw, light, and now the impact. The impact is powerful, the only draw back would be it's weighty. The way I've compensated was sliding the battery on the backside, seems to make it more balanced. Bought this as alternative to an air gun when I wasn't home.

DO NOT buy this product from this company. I received this product this evening, opened it up out of the UPS box and immediately saw that the Milwaukee box had been opened up quite a few times. I took the Impact Wrench out of the box and it had scratches and dust all over it. This had clearly been used and I couldn't believe it. BTW, this tool does not come with a charger or battery, that cost extra.
