Husky 1/2″ Air Impact Wrench Review

An air impact wrench is the fastest and the most powerful type of impact wrench available in the market. While the other two, the cordless and the corded, might be hassle-free to carry, and cheaper, they still cannot beat the function of an air one. Its ability to generate powerful torques, a higher amount of rounds and impacts per minute continue to keep it a professional’s first choice. Therefore, there are countless of them available on the market. Not only that, this number is increasing every day. Thus, we decided to figure which air one you should choose when buying and found the Husky Air Impact Wrench and this is our review.

Secondly, the tool is designed to optimize one hand operation. This means, that they can change the speed, and set the direction of the torque by merely using the respective triggers. Thirdly, it has an in-built noise cancellation technology that vastly decreases the noise produced.
  2. It is powerful: It can produce a 500 ft-lbs torque in forward and reverse direction. Also, it is built with a powerful jumbo hammer that adds to its power. It also delivers 9000 Rounds Per Minute (RPM).
  3. It is ergonomic: A weight of merely 3 pounds, and size almost half of other impact wrenches make the Husky very ergonomic. This prevents disorders associated with heavy-lifting or too much wrist movements, for example, the carpal tunnel syndrome.
