Looking for a pneumatic impact wrench?

There are some specific things you need to look for to ensure that you’re not only getting a good one, but that you’re also getting the best value for your money.

The first thing you need to know when you’re looking for an Impact Wrench is how much torque you need for the jobs you want to do.

Torque is the measure of the turning force on an object. For example, pushing or pulling the handle of a wrench connected to a nut or bolt produces a torque (turning force) that loosens or tightens the nut or bolt. A pneumatic impact wrench will give you many times the amount of torque that you could produce yourself, making previously difficult jobs (like getting the lug-nuts off a tire) much, much easier. Depending on what you’ll be using your pneumatic impact wrench for, you’ll need a certain amount of torque to get the job done.

Secondly, look for a pneumatic impact wrench with as solid a housing as you can get. If your pneumatic impact wrench has a solid housing (meaning the outer part housing the motor has been cast in one solid piece) it will minimize the vibrations that emanate from the motor when it’s running. Minimizing these vibrations will make the wrench more comfortable for you hold, and enable you to sue it for longer periods of time.

Another thing to consider when choosing Pneumatic Impact Wrench is the weight. If you find two pneumatic impact wrenches that are exactly the same in all other respects, but one is way more expensive than the other, check the weight. Chances are, the more expensive wrench is the lighter one. A lighter pneumatic impact wrench is more comfortable to use, and like minimizing vibrations, makes it easier for you to use the wrench longer.

Also look for a pneumatic impact wrench with buttons that are easy to use and clearly labeled. If you’re able to hold the wrench in person, make sure that the buttons and trigger are easy for you to use. If you can’t hold it in person (like if you’re planning to buy your pneumatic impact wrench online) then try to find user reviews that will let you know what real people thought about the usability of the wrench.

For me, I did a lot of research, and both checked out pneumatic impact wrenches in person and did my research on the internet. Ultimately, I was with the Ingersoll-Rand 2130 1/2-Inch Heavy-Duty Air Impact Wrench. I found it to be the best deal for the money, with enough power for working on my car, and lightweight and built well enough that it would be comfortable for me to use.
