The Dewalt 18v XR Cordless Brushless 1/2″ Compact Impact Wrench features an efficient brushless motor that delivers increased power, durability and efficiency. The brushless motor delivers an incredible 409Nm fastening torque and 610Nm of breakaway torque.
The impact wrench has a tactile 4-mode feature, allowing the user to refine control by selecting different modes and speeds. The scaffold mode helps to prevent overtightening in forward and fastener run-off in reverse.
The tool is equipped with a 'Scaffolding Mode' specifically for scaffholding applications. In forward rotation, it will run down the nut and then impact for a period before cutting off to svoid over-tightening. In reverse rotation, it will impact to break the nut free, before winding down the nut and cutting off to avoid damage to clamps.
The tool also features the 'Precision Wrench' mode which grants the user greater control in both fastening and loosening applications. When set in forward, the tool will fasten at 2500 RPM until impact begins. The tool will then pause for 0.5 seconds before continuing to impact at a rate of 3550 IPM, providing the user with greater control and reducing the chance of overtightening or damaging material. When set in reverse, the tool will impact at a normal speed and rate of 3550 IPM. Upon sensing that the fastener has broken free, the tool will cease to impact and will reduce speed to help prevent run-off of loose hardware.
