If you’re in the market to buy an impact wrench and you have no idea where to start or where to look.  I’m going to show you a few wrenches that you should look into when you’re looking to purchase one.  I went onto a few stores online and found the top three rated wrenches by consumers like you and I.

Ingersoll Rand 231C 1/2-Inch Super Duty Air impact Wrench

The Ingersoll received some of the best rating online and I can see why.  The Ingersoll Rand air impact wrench was introduced over 25 years ago and was continuously refined until it met customer satisfaction.  This particular wrench is the most popular in it’s class.  It offers an exclusive impact mechanism, pressure-feed lubrication and an adjustable power regulator.

Makita BTD141 18 Volt Lithium-Ion Cordless Impact Driver Kit

If you’re looking for a cordless impact driver kit, you may want to look at the Makita that has received numerous positive reviews across the board.  This particular Makita model has a hex shank, built in 4-pole maximum torque motor and a shape that fits like a glove even when it’s running.  Not only will you get this, it also comes with a LXT Lithium-Ion battery that produces 280% total lifetime work with two times the cycles.

Hitachi WR18DL 18-volt Lithium-Ion Cordless Impact Wrench

This Hitachi drill is very comparable to the Makita.  The Hitachi comes equipped with two 3.0 Ah HXP Lithium Ion Batteries for three times the life at half the weight of regular batteries.  It has class leading torque, 1,950-inch/lbs to power through the toughest jobs.  Not only that, it’s very compact and super light, weighing only 3.5 pounds.

Kawasaki 840017 Green 1/2″ 7.0 amp Impact Wrench Kit

This Kawasaki kit is one of the more reasonably priced kits on the market.  Not only will you get the drill, you’ll also get a kit as well for less than $80!  This Kawasaki has a 7.0 amp motor, 220 ft/lbs of torque and 2700 impacts per minute.  If you’re looking for a reasonably priced impact wrench, I would look into considering this one.

When looking for an impact wrench, I would highly advise you that you search online before you go to the store and buy one.  99% of the time, you’re going to find a better deal online.  If you choose, I would go to the store to test one out before you buy but I thought I’d give you that heads up before you pay at least 25% more at your local hardware store.
