Makita BTW450Z Impact Wrench

Wow,this tool works great! I tried using a breaker bar to remove the bolts that hold on the brake bracket, but I couldn't get them to budge. I used the impact wrench and spun the bolts right off. Works great to remove and replace the lug nuts on my Expedition. And for whomever said it was heavy, get in the gym and get some muscles.

Im in the military and I bought this for home use in the garage. I noticed at work that the air powered impacts still struggle to remove the lug nuts on a HMMWV. so brought this to work just to try it out. busted through them like a knife through butter, did not even hesitate. great product it is heavy but so what(go to the gym). all in all I love it.

I used to make my living as an auto mechanic. I used a friends Dewalt cordless 1/2" impact wrench and was very impressed but when I saw the price I backed off. I own several other makita tools that use the same lithium-ion battery and have been very happy with them. When this unit came up for less than half the price of the Dewalt I jumped. I still own a 1/2" air impact and this cordless wrench appears to have as much power as the air wrench. It is heavy especially with the battery but at least there is no hose attached to it. I like the shock absorbing battery mount. I think that's a great idea.

I have two of these now, one for work and one for my garage. Durable, and strong. Has all the power you could really ever need to tackle any nut or bolt. I prefer it over air impacts because its quiet and you never have to wait for the compressor.

I bought this to remove the center-lock wheels on my racecar. Made in Japan. Great quality. Plenty of torque and more importantly this bruiser can also be rather delicate.
