Very lightweight and powerful. Great price. Buy it now definitely worth it.

Dealer tech here, as far as stubby impacts go, for the money this one will keep up with matco/mac/snapon all day at a fraction of the cost. Perfect size when space to work is a factor. Aircat provides a 2 year warranty and with the availability of rebuild kits this should last you for many years. The selector for on and off can be moved to the other side which is nice for you south-paws. Get a hi-flow swivel quick connect and you can work in even smaller places. Definitely would purchase this again.

Fits in a lot of places and seems to have decent power I work on semis and have not found anything it wouldn’t take off

This air impact fits in tight places and is easy to change direction. Has three levels of torque and is adjusted with your thumb. The tool is high quality, solid, heavy (but not overly so) and the craftsmanship is exquisite. This company obviously takes pride in the quality of their products, and I would purchase this brand again. I suspect that the claimed breakaway torque is a bit optimistic for my compressor setup (125 PSI), but is likely accurate if the PSI is tweaked. The hog ring on the 3/8 business end can be a pain, so I use 1/2 " sockets with an impact adapter and remove only the sockets. I recommend getting the 1/2 " variant of this gun because it will likely have better results with tough fasteners. It is available in 3/8" and 1/2" for the same price. The 3/8" I purchased was not able to break a Honda crank bolt, even with the use of the Lisle 19mm heavy socket that's made for Honda crank bolts. But it's worked on everything else I've thrown at it and I love the way it fits in my hand. Hopefully it will last for years.

Not the strongest impact I own but by far my favorite! Left or right hand use, strength adjustment, all adjustments with a flock of the thumb! I've only had this for a short while so I can't speak to the longevity of it but it feels very well made, it's fairly quiet, very strong and feels great in your hand. I chose this one because of other people's reviews and so am glad I did! I will be buying more aircat products on the future for sure!

I had to do suspension work on my 2003 Dodge Ram 1500 4.7L pickup. This made mincemeat of the work I had to do. My 13, 11, and 7 year olds used this!!! (Granted, they had supervision and guidance from dear old Dad. Hey, I'm getting wore out; I have to pass this on to my kids!!! :-D I did one side in 3-4 hours: upper control arm, lower control arm balljoint, tierod end, and shock absorber, which included removing the axle hub nut. This tool did it all. I had a CH impact wrench some time ago that was useful for lugnuts and maybe the lower bolt for the shocks. This tool was compact, powerful, and had enough weight to not destroy your hand. The only complaint, a minor one, is the packaging it came in was poor, a mere cloth bag, which in hindsight, explains the low cost of the tool. I don't care about that LOL EXCELLENT tool!!!

I finally got to use this impact for the first time today when replacing the lower control arms on a Nissan Titan. I know it's not really designed for suspension work but I wanted to see what it would do and while it's not as strong as my bigger Nitrocats (who would expect it to be) it did wonderful. Lug nuts at 90-it didn't even have to try, ball joint pinch bolts-barely had to hit them and they where flying off, shock absorber bolts came right out, everything was 19mm-22mm head, with that I am not in the rust belt but normal corrosion on the bolts from time. I honestly don't understand some of the lower rated reviews on this impact but maybe I got lucky????? I also only use Milton high flow fittings at ALL of my connections (your air flow is only as good as it's weakest link so anything that's not high flow will kill air flow)I use a 35 gallon Dayton compressor with a single stage 11.5cfm compressor pump running at 90psi at the regulator, 10' of 1/2" piping (1/2" inlet/outlet pressure regulator-inline oiler) and a 50'-3/8" hose, max tank pressure 110psi. So as you can see my system isn't high end and still runs this impact and any of my other air tools with ease. So if you are having issue's with your air tools please consider taking the time to read a bit about proper piping/fittings and hoses for your tools and you may be surprised at how well you can make your air supply work. Update: I uploaded a video to show this impact removing lugs nuts. In the video I say 90 ft-lbs and that was my mistake for assuming Hyundai had torqued them to spec when my father in law had taken it there to have it worked on, I used a torque wrench on the other side and the lug nuts where actually breaking loose between 105-110 ft-lbs. The impact when I am using it in the video is actually below recommended air pressure since I am only running 90psi at the reg and it will drop by the time it goes through a 50' 3/8" hose. I'm planning to run a 1/2" I.D. hose then adapt to a 3/8" the last 10' in order to pick up volume and help keep the pressure drop from happening.
