The benefits include reduced hazards from breathing exhausted air particulates, the elimination of blow-by into the operators eyes and lungs as well as reduce noise. AIRCAT also incorporates a patented ergonomically engineered handle design to relieve stress and fatigue on the operators hands, wrists and arms.

already had one impact wrench.........but it was crap......i was tired of having an impact and still having to take lug nuts and stuff off with a 4-way.........i started looking around the $100-$150 range for something with some nuts to it.........found this.....it claimed 1000 ft/lbs reverse w/ variable speed forward and avg air consumption around 4cfm which is what my compressor pushes....it came in the mail last week and in the first hour i had my tires rotated on my truck and the blades off of my shredder waiting to be sharpened and put back on.........when i put the lug nuts and shredder bolts back on i used the lowest forward setting possible.........when i put the 4-way on them i couldn't get them any tighter........all in all i am pleased with the product......i don't know about longevity since i've only had it a week but it's very quiet.......you wouldn't think it had that much power just from listening to it.......i'm just a weekend warrior but when i want to get some bolts off usually i don't have time to waste.......as someone who works hard for his money and doesn't come off of it very easily i think this is a great buy.

I'm very happy with this tool. Far better quality than the low cost brands and at least $100 cheaper than other big name tools not to mention how quiet it is. Feel like I can use this on the weekends with out disturbing my neighbors.

I have a small 20 gallon compressor and two inexpensive impact wrenches of which neither could remove the lug nuts from tires. I always figured it was the compressor. I tried this one and with a quick burst and because it is very quiet, I figured like the rest it didn't work. Well, it removed them without any effort. This is an awesome tool that worked great with a small, under powered compressor. Of course, very fast shipping from Amazon.
