This is a great tool for freeing stuck screws. I used it to free the rotor retaining screws on a set of disc brakes. Plus this tool was made in USA.

This impactor makes removing stuck screws, nuts, bolts, etc. a breeze. I highly recommend this product for anyone working with vintage machinery, automobiles, etc. We all know how difficult it can be to get stuck fasteners loosened and this gem makes it easy w/o stripping them out and ruining them. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

I bought this because I could not remove the torx bolts holding my engine thermostat housing down. Volvo, aluminum engine block, pictures of sheared off bolt's were in my mind (to much torque) This took about 20 seconds per bolt to loosen. PERFECT ending. I highly recommend this tool!

Works well....as others have said it's a little difficult to work at first. Truth is I was over complicating it....you just twist to the direction you want the bolt/screw to go and then hit it hard. Loosened numerous Torx bolts on my Harley that wouldn't budge without damage( I did have to hit them numerous times). Careful to hold the tool tight! These shock and twist the bolt/screw just a tiny bit with each blow of the hammer. I used these over my career as a telephone pole lineman as the gaffs on the climbers required them to remove/retighten the gaff...always wanted one for my tool box as they have many applications as long as you have room to hit it......finally got one and it saved the day. Well made AMERICAN tool! Buy with confidence!

I'm restoring a 1955 Chevy BelAir. I've heard from others that it's almost impossible to remove the huge phillips-head screws from the door hinges. Most times, they have to be drilled out and the holes re-tapped. The impact tool showed up just in time. The screws in my car were as frozen as I expected them to be. But this well-built impact driver got the job done quickly. This tool performed perfectly. I'm guessing that it saved me a solid two hours of work on just this small phase of my project.

The product worked well. I needed it to remove some very tight screws. You twist the tool according to which way you want to turn the screw, place it on the screw, and then bash it with a heavy hammer. The impact drives the bit tightly into the screw and twists it a little bit thus tightening or loosening the screw.

My only complaint is that it came with no instructions at all so I had to experiment to figure out exactly how to use it.

Had tried to remove screws from an old motorcycle engine using air impact tools. After much frustration and talking to mechanics I purchased this hand impact tool set. Wow!!!! After just a few minutes I had removed all the screws from the side of the engine. The different size bits made removing the stripped heads of screws an easy task. This tool is a must for any diy person. Would work great for any stuck screw or bolt around the home or shop. Guarantee I'll be using this more than once.

I have successfully used this tool to remove the quantity 8, #2 phillips head screws holding all 4 brake disks on my 2009 vehicle. It worked perfectly - while the tool is inserted into the screw just turn the tool in the direction you would like the screw to turn, hold the tool tightly in your hand, and strike it with a hammer.

This manual impact driver got some frozen, rusted screws off my old truck that no other tool could budge. Also will work with any socket wrench sockets for removing bolts. Well worth it and very solidly built.

this is a great tool to own i give the MUT award. its a very handy tool for someone who cant afford an impact wrench. and its made in the USA
