Cordless Wrenches at Do it Best

Cordless Impact Wrenches have high torque and use both rotational and short-burst concussive force to tighten and remove fasteners. Cordless wrenches eliminate the muscle strain associated with manual wrenches. IPM (Impacts Per Minute) measures the rate of impacts relative to resistance. Impact wrenches are highly effective at removing lug nuts or rusted nuts and bolts.

How to Choose the Right Cordless Wrench

Torque and Power Needs

Torque is a measurement of power, and wrench cordless options have various amounts of torque for use in different tasks. Battery-powered wrenches have between 225 and 1,500 ft-pounds of torque and have multiple speed settings. Higher torque is better for industrial lugs and bolts, while mid-range torque works well for general assembly.

Drive Size 

The drive size indicates the dimensions of the anvil on the wrench. Drive size should match the sockets and fasteners being used. A ½” drive is the most common for its combination of both size and power, and it has more torque for both medium and heavy-duty tasks. A ⅜” drive is great for medium-duty general and automotive tasks. A ¾” drive is used for high-power applications like construction equipment.

Battery Platform and Runtime

The battery platform for the cordless impact wrench should match that of tools already owned for compatibility and convenience. Cordless wrenches with larger amp-hour (Ah) batteries offer longer runtime, which is especially helpful for extended or repetitive tasks.
