M12 FUEL Stubby 1/2 Inch Impact Wrench (Bare Tool)

I'm not a professional mechanic but the Milwaukee M12 stubby 1/2" impact wrench has greatly improved my home game wrenching. I was struggling to remove a 19 mm crankshaft pulley bolt on my 1996 Daihatsu Hijet mini truck using various hand tools and wasted 45 minutes with no success. I bought the M12 stubby impact and used it on the lowest setting and it didn't quite remove it. It may have if I kept trying for a minute, but I bumped it up to setting 2 and that stubborn bolt spun out immediately. Super easy!. Barely an inconvenience. All of the torque I could apply with a breaker bar was only turning over the engine or rolling the truck if I put it in gear, even with the emergency brake applied. The hammering impact works where constant application of torque doesn't. It's a real game changer, and the stubby size easily fit between the pulley and the radiator on my mini truck. Only a 90 degree impact wrench will fit in tighter spots, but this little impact wrench has the torque to take off lug nuts with ease. With great power comes great responsibility. For those new to impact wrenches, start on the lowest setting and always check that it's in reverse to avoid snapping bolts when trying to remove them because this wee beastie will rip the heads off smaller bolts and strip threads if misused. Tools like this are obvious purchases for professionals, but for occasional home use, this well designed high quality tool is definitely a "buy once, cry once" tool that provides value measured in not busting knuckles, wasting time and putting money in the swear jar. With pretty good HyperTough cordless tools at a quarter the price, this M12 impact wrench is probably a luxury for home use, but good tools make you feel good. It made quick work of removing the bolts securing the water pump as well. This stubby impact wrench was the gateway drug that led me to an M12 addiction of ten tools and counting.

Muy buen equipo vale totalmente la pena muy ligera y compacta

Tiene buena potencia para su tamaño la única desventaja sería la duración de la batería respecto a modelos m18

Great power for it's size. Plenty of torque for trailer lug nuts. It didn't want to do my F-350 lug nuts, but the dealer probably over-torqued those dramatically. Easy busts lug nuts that are properly torqued to 100 ft-lbs. Works good on camper scissor jacks too. I have zero complaints, a heck of a tool for its compact size. Only the toughest of jobs would require the larger impact.
