Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

If you’ve been driving in lag screws and loosening large hex nuts with a ratchet wrench, or worse still, an open-end wrench, then you’re going to love the DeWalt DW057K-2 Cordless Impact Wrench. This compact, portable powerhouse is driven by an 18-volt nickel-cadmium (Ni-Cad) battery that produces 1,650 in./lbs. of torque, and 3,000 blows-per-minute of percussive force to bust loose the most stubborn nuts, including tire lugs. This 4.9 pound cordless wrench is also invaluable for tightening hex-head machine bolts and driving long lag screws into wood.

The DW057K-2 is just 6-1/2 inches long—about the same size as a cordless drill, so it’ll work in tighter spaces than standard impact wrenches. It has a metal 1/2-inch-square detent pin anvil, which firmly holds the socket in place. Other features include a sure-grip handle, durable magnesium gear case, and an all-metal transmission for smooth operation. -- Joseph Truini

I've only used this tool a few times and it has out performed my expectations each time. Working as a marine technician you see a lot of rusty engine mounts, each time I've used it this tool had no problem. Its also well balanced and compact, certinly not a the biggest amount of torque but enough for alot of smaller jobs.

YEA! No more striped screw heads. Driving 3" screws into 2 x 4 studs without stripping out the screws is wonderful. This tool makes the job quick and easy. Driving sheet metal screws is a breeze. Wouldn't trade this tool for anything else.

The tool is a great tool for all kind of fixing that need to be asemble or disasemble. The impact is strong enough for mechanic and the battery is a 5 star quality, I charge it once for about a month ago and it is still strong, I use it every day some more than other but the battery doesn't drain of it power as fast as other cordless tools that I have use.
