New IP56 Metabo HPT 36V Tripple Hammer Bolt Review
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 25 ส.ค. 2024
- Metabo HPT launched a new 36V MultiVolt Triple Hammer BOLT Impact Driver (Model WH36DC). Improving upon the prior design, the new Triple Hammer impact driver still uses a third anvil for less vibration but outputs 1,903 in-lbs of torque, (158 ft-lbs). The tool is only 4-1/2” in length and 2 lbs. The New Tripple hammer has 5-speed settings which allow it not only to be a beast on long screws or tough bolts, but to be dialed down for more detailed/precision work.
Metabo HPT moved the LED light for more visibility while minimizing shadows. It’s water and dust resistant with an IP56 rating and withstood our testing or abuse.
This 36V Triple Hammer BOLT Impact Driver is sold kitted with (2) 2.5Ah MultiVolt batteries, rapid charger with USB port and carrying case with a MSRP of $299.
One of the most underrated tool brands for sure. They make good stuff
There is a lot to love about Metabo HPT. I think their name change combined with Lowes shuffling them around in their stores haven’t helped but the tools I have tried are great. The way they handled the 18v/36v option is right there with flexvolt for giving you a higher voltage without excluding 18v users. Great stuff!
I honestly prefer the 18/36 v over the flex volt because it feels like more of an ambidextrous battery. I honestly think they nailed it with that solution. You’re not putting a 60 V battery on a impact or a drill you can but why would you if it’s not necessary? it’s like strapping a brick to your tool.
I'm with you, Brian. MHPT might be the single most underrated tool brand out there.
I can offer up a couple vids from my channel -

@@PhillyFixed I have been abusing that router-its awesome and changed some of my methods in the shop and on jobsite-check out awesome framer using the router and his take on rear handles
but don't forget the barrel grip for life
I just picked up the triple hammer 36v kit with 2x 2.5ah multi volt batteries and the 196wh charger for $111 and it's one of if not the best impact I have ever owned
Where? Thx

Metabo HPT is my main squeeze. The only tools I have that aren’t made by them are inherited tools. I personally think the only issue they have is a smaller ecosystem. However, it seems to be growing a lot in the past couple years. They seem to be ramping up even more this year. I’ve been in the line since the Hitachi days and have enjoyed every minute of using the tools.
Love all the green testing! Triple hammer was my first impact in 2018. I got it after my first year of commercial plumbing. 4 years later it’s still one of my 2 workhorse impacts and I’ve only added about 20 other Hitachi/MetaboHPT tools and accessories since then.
Great review, Brian! I especially liked your beginning and ending questions regarding the popularity of the brand. Metabo HPT make awesome tools and personally, they make up the majority of the power tools I own both corded and cordless. They deserve more recognition for the products they put out without all the marketing fluff.
Changing the brand to Hikoki every where in the world but then to Metabo in the US…all the while maintaining actual Metabo in the US. It makes my head spin. The company was always Koki…and they even named the holding company Koki. Insanity. Hitachi had just bought Metabo when KKR bought Hitachi Koki. Barely two years had passed. Had that sale Metabo not gone through we wouldn’t even have this mess. I don’t understand it. Are these companies run by century old farts that only communicate via horseback and papyrus? I, like everyone else in the modern world, communicate with the whole damn planet, always. You don’t rebrand yourself regionally in 2022. You don’t have different model numbers for the same damn product across two tax codes in 2022. Many of these power tool companies are run by morons.
Just picked up the new 36v mid torque from cpo to replace my snapon 18v impact wrench, absolutely love it, massive power for a mid torque, almost zero vibration transfer into the hand
Metabo hpt makes phenomenal tools, they at least in my experience have innovative and unique but also practical tools all with tool truck level customer service/warranty’s with some of the best power/battery platforms all around imo…I just wish we got more of the tools released under hikoki Japan such as the C3605db flush cut saw the 36v jig saw and the 36v 6.5” c3606 …if they could get some more loyal users they definitely would release them in the states
I think their tools are #1 in quality full stop.
I’m loyal to other brands with deep lines as well, but picking up an HPT tool impresses me every time.
Great brand, has definitely turned into my go to tools. The plus to people not buying these is no one takes my tools on the job site lol
I love metabo hpt the number #1 with the hybrid mode.
Hear hear! Very well-said.
Not to mention their industry-firsts and PTIA award-winners: full-size 36v plunge-router, 36v 10" table saw, 36v duplex nailer, 36v positive-placement nailer, and so on.
Metabo HPT also offer the best promotions. Example: I bought the 36v recip saw, tool-only ($209 + tax), and got the 36v hammer drill KIT, free ($399 value).
In all, I got the top-notch recip saw, top-notch hammer drill, two 4-ah MV batteries, a rapid charger, and the hardcase, all for only $209 + tax.
They don't play games. It's always: Buy this, get this free. And the free item isn't some chumpy, lower-level item: it's always a top-notch battery or battery kit, or an equal-or-higher value tool.
I still own plenty of Milwaukee's tools, and still use their specialty tools regularly -- namely, their Quik-lok system, hole saws and 18v vacuum. But from now on, I'm throwing my money at the higher-value Mean Green for my everyday power-tool needs.
Awesome brand! I would love to see more Metabo hpt!
Well damn. I already have 3 of those 36v triple hammer but want this new one now
Same here. Their goals a few hundred more dollars out of my bank account.
Yessss!!! Been waiting for an awesome review on this. I still have the older model but thanks to this video, we gotta get er🤣. Thanks Brian. Appreciate it man
If they had this tool only I would have gotten it because I was curious how it would compare to the old one.
I love my gen 1 metabo hpt impact driver I also have their 1/2 cordless router and their 18 gauge nail gun and their 30 degree framer. I love their tools and their batteries lasts long time. Great tools and I’m probably going to buy this impact.
Thanks, been waiting for a review on this one. I love my Metabo HPT tools, seem to be the most comfortable for me. I believe RR Buildings uses the 36v impact driver as his main impact.
Yes, Kyle from RR Buildings has given the triple hammer very good reviews.
I'm pretty heavily invested in the HPT platform. I love their tools. A few years back I picked up the Black version drill and impact kits they had on clearance for like $69 ...I was blown away by the power and quality. I couldn't believe I scored for that price. Then later Lowes was selling the 36v 4a/h battery/fast charger kits for like $80 if I remember....That was it...I was hooked. I have been adding to that platform ever since and selling off my other brands. I have also had friends borrow some tools and they were blown away. I just wish there was a bit more width to the product line...but it is clear their market is the pro on the jobsite doing common tasks. At least they have a cordless sheet metal nibbler, and that says something.
Working outdoors with the peace of mind it can be dunked in a bucket of water is something people don't think about. Love the old triple hammer and impact wrench. Very smooth and have no worries working in pouring rain
Great tool. I've been using it for the last couple weeks. Metabo HPT stuff generally is pretty good. At least the multivolt stuff i've been using. I should have a video review of the impact drivers in the next up coming weeks along with more metabo HPT tools. Already reviewed their rear handle circular saw and it's great.
We have done a few reviews of Metabo HPT tools and we definitely agree they are under rated. I think it's a lot to do with the confusing name.
Great video!!! I’m a huge metabo hpt user/fan from when they were hitachi to hitachi koki, still Koki in Japan/Australia
The 18v lineup will do the job But I recently had to send out my drill after one year of use because the screw on my chuck got stripped off I also had to send out my 18v 21 degree Framing Nailer after 2 years of use I’m really impressed with the 36V tools I have the 7 1/4 saw and sawzall and impact as well as the wrench and I haven’t sent those out while also using them over a year
I’m now purchasing the 36v tool lineup only
Definitely my #2 brand. If they had a little more in their line, they’d be #1. They have been innovating with their battery system and adapter for awhile now, and as far as comfort they are #1 for me. They unfortunately have 0 marketing and I wish they would have stuck with hikoki like overseas instead of the confusing Metabo hpt name change
should have stuck with hitachi
And to make it even more confusing, Metabo is a German tool company which was apparently bought by Hitachi and then sold again.
Hikoki are a top brand in every way. Smooth, powerfull and reliable. It is a pity that most of the people have not heard about them.
Brian. I am very pleased with my metabo hpt tools .
Honestly they deserve better out there.
However, that 36 v adapter looks great.
Another fine, thorough, and balanced review. I'm really like my OG 18v Triple Hammer (my #1 18v) but that impact looks sweet.
Metabo HPT keeps cranking out great tools--powerful, ergonomic, and affordable--and people need to know.
You are right my friend I own all Hitachi : a cut off saw 14 in, a 3/4 Hamer drill corded, a belt sander, a impact driver Wh14, all bought between 2003-2006 so almost 20 years old I renovated a house and built a new one with a 20x28 garage all from scratch about 15 years ago plus a 100 feet long aluminium and wood stairs in a 75 feet hight cliff by the sea all work great and never let me down and also a trailer plus tire change summer winter for the past 20 years😅😅😅 soon very good tool my wife is holding me from buying tools 😅😅but she will back me for a new impact driver. Keep it up you are a valuable asset to any diy thanks
You said it right. The triple hammer is SMOOTH. Every time i use another brand of impact, I feel like, “what is wrong with this thing?” 🤨 I’ve just gotten used to my triple hammers and everything else seems to vibrate too much.
This is my tool brand and with all the updates and new tools that have come out, I think I made the right choice. I’m still waiting for a cordless orbital sander.
Oh that's great workshop addict!!! That's great! Now I'm gonna sell my old Hitachi Triple Hammer the 1sr gen triple hammer impact driver and I'm gonna get the new and improved version. Metabo hpt Triple Hammer IP-56 is an "HK-416" (Waterproof and dust proof indestructible Automatic Rifle) of Impact Drivers. Metabo HPT triple is what I use on most harsh and extreme weather conditions.
Corded tools will last you a life time.
That option alone should make this tool a top brand
I’ve got the wh36db and I use it working on hondas. It’s extremely useful and very smooth. It takes off more than snap on 3/8 compact impacts that my coworkers have. There are times where I’d like it to be a bit more powerful but so it would be nice to upgrade to the bolt impact driver but I can’t complain with the one I have. Highly recommended
Best tools out there imo. total package. need a few more tools in the line. other than that, they've quickly become my go to.
I agree. Great tools. Recently bought the 7.25 miter and a drill/impact combo. Miter was expensive but worth it. Extremely accurate. Only thing the line needs is a PEXa expander.
Can't wait to get my hands on this
I agree I like Makita impact drivers/impact's as.well but way too many buttons
I er last 4yrs I have replaced most of my daily use and some specialty tools to Metabo HPT 36V tools-great features, batteries backwards compatible 18V/36V, AC adapter for 36V tools, lifetime warranty and very durable/powerful at a better price than the red, yellow and teal and flexy
My 18/36v tools are all branded Hitachi or MHTP. Price of entry is what sparked my interest. The 36v recip saw is a beast. Their corded and cordless nailers are top notch. The subcompact recip saw accepts both standard recip blades plus jig saw blades. Their hammer drills are legit. The list goes on and on... Topped by the Triple Hammer. They get lost in the chaos that is the power tool world. They get shoved to a corner with 6 tools on display in their only real brick and mortar presence in NA in favor of other tools. . Perhaps the old Hitachi brand name still haunts them with the lower grade aspects and sub par performance of their former parent company (can't remember seeing too many Hitachi reviews either). So mix their history, their marketing, their availability, their "history" with the over saturated market where MHTP is trying to gain a foothold and you have a definite recipe for a diamond in the rough. Perhaps their eagerness to simply let the tool do the talking in a world dominated by what social media thinks leaves them near the back of the pack. Maybe they don't mind and would rather fly under the radar with some of the best tools you buy.
agree all points. my favorite line. if they had a few more, I'd be all in. but happy with what I have.
Was Hitachi considered low quality in the power tool world? I know in the electronics world, Hitachi was top notch (equal to or better than Sony).
I really like all there tools wish they made more of them ip56
Look up the IP (Ingress Protection) ratings. IP56 is not rated for full water immersion. Need needs to be a 7 or higher.
@@MikeyA5693 the IP56 is a gauranteed rating for what is protects against, doesn't mean they won't perform better(as it did in the test) than that rating-the other tools brands can't even gaurantee the IP56 and offer a lifetime gaurantee-no other brand is doing this and they are charging u more for their tools and force u to buy gobs of batteries to run high rpm/torque tools while Metabo HPT offers an AC adapter making their tools much more useful and saving battery longevity and cost over the life of the tool
@@baseballdude8491 oh cause he submerged it in water for only for this video that this tool you say its "performed better" than what its rated for. What a joke. False info is FALSE Advertising.
@@baseballdude8491 I can submerge my Milwaukee under water too. This tool aint special.
@@MikeyA5693 Had a worker leave two Milwaukee a 2nd and 3rd gen that we out in rain 1 day
Both did not work(one we eventually opens up and had to untrust the components and it's worked ok with some more cutting out he other has never worked again-had two triple hammers out on same jobsite all of them never stopped working-yes we eventually fired the emnoloyee
Love the tools.. just don't have much as much options as Milwaukee I think that's why they are so underrated
I have their framing gun and I love it
I would consider switching completely to Metabo HPT if they added a few more tools to there lineup, they need a better oscillating tool, and a random orbit sander, to just name a few tools where they fall short
I run a bunch of colors but my daily use tools plus some that others don't carry like full size 1/2 router, portable Band Saw, SDS Max rotary hammer, full size 10" table saw, rebar bender, all are tools using the AC adapter is a game changer
they just announced their cordless orbital sander thankfully, but yeah agree the oscillator is just plain bad compared to the dewalt xr one we have
Thanks for the review. I think Dr decks and awesome framers also occasionally review and use some Metabo hpt tools. I think someone else mentioned RR building as well. Currently I own Metabo hpt and Makita tools. I think it's nice to have only one tool line but two battery lines give you a lot of choices.
I have ten tools or so in Makita but metabo just has several things i want that makita doesn't or didn't have. A battery operated rebar bender, table saw, air compressor, and compound miter saw that doesn't cost a thousand dollars. the best selection of hoseless nail guns including a duplex nailer. Makita has a huge selection already so the flexibility of both is great.
@@jakesnowake1 Of the two HPT cordless miter saws, one of them(the good one) is $1050.00 bare tool. The other one is decent, too, but only if you get a good deal on it.
I am going metabo 36v
I just received the rear handle today and I love that thing cuts like butter. And got it with free starter kit from tool barn
I always assumed this was just some cheap diy brand because I never saw it talked about in the pro scene or ever seen them used in person. Then one day i decided to pick up the 36v reciprocating saw because it was the same price as a regular m18 sawzall (tool only) and came with a 4ah battery and charger. Thing is an absolute monster. Turns out the only recip that 1 ups it is the makita 40v, and the makita is almost 3x the price. Kind of sucks im already invested into milwaukee because these honestly seem like nicer tools.
I have hikoki triple hammer impact driver 18v and I love it alot
I have the previous generation impact 36v and their plunge router. Metabo HPT is akin to Makita in that their market seems to be the rest of the world and North America is kind of an afterthought. Just like Makita they are tools are freaking awesome.
I would like to see you review their cordless brad and finish nailers. When I retired I got into Ridgid tools and only have a Ryobi brad nailer. Which has been awesome. I’d like to switch up to Metabo
No wonder they have their 36v impact and hammer drill on clearance. I own all kinds of brands and I recently bought a few tools in their brand and I really like the ergonómica of them. They remind me of Makita
Best tools I have‼️ I switched to everything except their occilating tool which I didn't like.Rear handle cordless circular saw is my favorite
Rrbuildings uses hpt stuff, solid channel.
All my tools are metabo and my guys love um
Thanks for the review.
to answer your questions, its because when people buy into a battery ecosystem they want a cornucopia of other items they can use the batteries with and Metabo, does not have that where Milwaukee, DeWalt, Ryobi do.
I disagree I have different colored tools for different jobs-non of the brands has the "best" of anything
Having different battery platforms for the different applications has actually save me money and time and increased the quality of work I do
I can tell you why I didn’t go with them, as for others, I suspect maybe the same reasoning. Being a diy guy, I needed a line that would encompass everything from automotive to carpentry to demoing. I know Metabo has some pretty good impact wrenches, but that’s really the only automotive tool I know of that they make. Their lineup consist mainly of woodworking tools and I wanted to base my ecosystem off of mechanics tools, because I can just hop in the truck and go to the store if a drill fails and it’s kinda hard to do that when an impact wrench fails and your truck is in pieces lol. Plus, your reviews are really the only ones I see on TH-cam for Metabo. I mean they’re out there, just few and far between. Basically, I felt like I already knew my Milwaukee like the back of my hand that day I walk into ace hardware and picked it up. Great video as always Bryan!
Full disclosure, I stopped the video about 3/4 of the way through to make my original comment and you said the exact same thing at the end lol. Obviously TTC has one, I believe I saw man caver do one, and VCG has some. It’s like trying to find Kobalt reviews.
@@Griffinwoodworks those are old videos and only the 18V impact(except VGC) and then no other MHPT tools(except 18av Recip VGC) when many of the 36V line would have wiped the floor with red, yellow and green
Recip saw, SDS rotary, portable band saw, full size 1/2 router(only one in mkt) , hammer drill, rebar bender(only one on mkt), vacuum(perfect tool for AC capability, cordless compressor, 10" table saw(largest capacity, rear handle(lightest in industry), and mid torque monster-all tools that I use on a almost daily baisis-oh and that doesn't even include the industry standard nailers 25+yrs running
the ones that they don't have I use my teal and red for
They are clearance out the order model right now. I got impact driver 2 batteries charger and case for 111$ today. Lowes
I bought the hammer drill and impact driver, both kits were 111 each... I had to, and within 2 hrs when I got home the price was back to 279 on both of them. Talk about perfect timing.
Nice impact Brian😎🛠️😎🛠️😎
my makita dtd 171 took 2 doses of water like that and still works too no problem
nice way to clean your tool and remove dust from inside :)) from what i know only hikoki (wh36DB and wh36DC) and makita have ip56 impact drivers (makita i think only the 40v ones td002 and td001)
Love the videos bro great job 💯🇺🇸👍
miss seeing ur partner hope he's doing well keep the great videos coming
I lovet this impact driver
I don't get it neither, Everyone I know is on the Milwaukee & dewalt train. I let them talk their tools up but I researched and tested before I went Hitachi. I was a porter cable guy since Lassie was a pup & turned hitachi while working construction in 2003....When Metabo started brushless I then converted all the hitachi's. Absolutely love them and store them all in pelican cases.
Tool and stuff covers Hikouki/ Metabo HPT/Hitachi. Which may be part of the problem with the name changes and re-branding I don’t understand the thought process there.
They’re not as underrated as some of you are making them out to be. They are pretty big in Australia and New Zealand, Europe.ect they just don’t do a lot of marketing here in the states and being exclusive at Lowe’s does not help their situation. And as far as them making the best impact driver for the last few yes you’re leaving out a huge flaw and that’s under heavy load with long fasteners it will actually start to bend them because the hammer and anvil actually start missing each other and will start hammering as well as impacting. But I did have a Hitachi recipe saw about 20 years ago that’s when we all had mixed matched tool sets because 90% of your tools were corded and I loved that thing. I do agree that they are great tools and wish they would change their marketing on this side of the world. Absolutely right about the Chringie Reality TV themed marketing. I’m Barnaby!😂
Tools & Stuff and Oz Tool Talk have reviews of Metabo HPT only it's hikoki in their part of the world. I have the 6 1/2 inch circular saw and I really like it. Put a Diablo blade on it and it'll cut all day.
I would love to own some metabo tools but I'm already committed to the dewalt brand and basically have every tool but one tool that I would love to have is the cordless 10 in. Table saw. It looks like a beast.
U might also look at the MHPT 1/2 plunge router , a tool I use much more than I would have had to in past
Also the SDS Max rotary hammer
My cousin(another contractor)who joined me 0n a recent job pulled out his DeWalt Flexvolt and I pulled out my Metabo HPT 36V and we both started with batteries after 3 battery changes his batteries were all too hot and Needed to cool down before being able to be recharged
I then grabbed my AC adapter and did 2 more hours of work as he waited to get his batteries up and running-he had to run the sledge hammer
He is now a convert and bought 2 MEtabo HPT SDS Max rotary hammers
@@baseballdude8491 Yup, think only the nailers and multi-tool is lacking for Metabo HTP but rest is amazing. Also think they're the only one's with a 10" muti-volt table saw, everyone else seems to be only 8" if you need to go cordless and of course with the adapter you can plug it in too, along with all the other 36v tools they make...
@@ZeoCyberG the multi tool yes
But the nailers have been the standard for over 25+ yrs
I have a Hitachi framing nailer that is 18yrs old and still making me money
Their new 36V nailers have an awesome framer, hanger nailer, and duplex nailer and the new 18guage is top of it's class
@@baseballdude8491 No, when I said lacking it wasn't to mean it's a bad tool. Just not as competitive with the latest from the other top tool brands that are pushing the bar higher, which is just not as obvious with the nailers as it is with the Multi-tool. Though, you are right to point out the good history of the tool and they are very reliable.
Yeah as soon as I find a deal on the table saw and the router I'm going to be all over it 🤤and the option of the AC cable is a big plus.
When they get an oil impulse/hydraulic driver to compete with the M18 Surge or the Makita oil impulse driver, then I will consider switching battery lines. I love the quiet for indoor use more than I need the ultimate torque for driving in a screw.
Hikoki has one but its not available for USA
You have to buy it off Ebay from Japanese seller
@@FoxOutdoors Yeah, and be prepared to spend $500 for it.
It sounds strange, but it’s that green color!
A lot of people like green, but not on a tool. Imo dark green on a tool makes me think cheap for some psychological reason, even if it’s the best tool in the world.
GR8 TOOL VID ROCK N ROLL🇺🇸⚡️⚡️🗽
Love my metabo tools. Quick note though, the amp hour measurement isn't a way to compare the power. Just the length of how long the battery lasts
Not always. It matters on the watt output of the cells used. so sometimes a higher Ah battery might have high output batteries and give more performance. So, when we talk about batteries, we have to call out Ah as that is what most people call them by.
Hey my names Adrian and in a tools addict , I have metabo , makita , Milwaukee ad my brands 😂
извини что на руском. английский я не знаю смотрел через яндекс переводчик. мне по нравился ролик. другие ролики ли видео, все куплены, это маркетинг, но большое спасибо за честное видео. вы молодец, я часто смотрю ваши ролики, ранее смотрел без перевода. так как музыку. больше интересовал процес. в россий это бренд представлен как ХАЙКОКИ . ТОЖЕ НЕ ПОПУЛЯРЕН ПО СКОЛЬКУ НОВИНКА!! хитачи потеля свою покупную способность по этому и так плохо покупаеться их новая продукция. спасибо большое за ролик!!
They would probably do better if sold at the orange box store versus the blue one
🔝 💪🏽
Absolultely the new KING #1 Impact Driver. Sorry Milwaukee & Dewalt, you have to work harder to beat this.
dont you have to sink in the tool without pressing the trigger then take it out and press the trigger....by keeping trigger pressed the amount of air pushed out by the motor avoids water going in...tried that with my craftsman impact and i had no issues sinking it in a bucket with trigger pressed
If it's waterproof, it's waterproof. The testing to get this rating involves hosing it down with massive amounts of water, and also sandblasting it with talcum powder.
I wouldn't personally stick my tools in a bucket of water even if they told me I could.
I am invested in Milwaukee. For me, it comes down to breadth of battery platform (and some prejudices). First, I do not want multiple battery chargers in my shop and Milwaukee has the most consistently good (not always the best, but in the conversation most of the time) product offerings for every battery tool I need (still waiting on the track saw). I used to be a Makita guy, but they have some real stinkers in their lineup (see their multitool, 18ga nailer, etc.). Second, I had always seen the Hitachi brand as kind of lower tier. Around me, it was only available at Menards (not that Menards is a bad store, just weird that was the ONLY place I saw Hitachi, maybe Lowes too, idk anymore haha). And when Metabo bought them, I saw the name change to "Metabo HPT" as a way to mask the cheapness (my perception) of Hitachi tools by attaching a higher-end brand like Metabo to it. I agree, it seems like a great tool, but I'll never own it because my shop is red and adding green would make it look like Santa's workshop! Lol! Thanks for the content!
A lot of words just to say no. 🤨🤨 Maybe someone's feeling a bit insecure? 🤔
@@robertcasey3528 He asked why. I told him why. Sorry it wasn't concise enough for you.
@@EricGrayEricLeePhotos the Hitachi Nailers have been the standard for nailers and fasteners- for over 25+ yrs-go to any jobsite and you'll see framing nailers beat to hell and still kicking and making contractors money-this isn't a fly by night company-they just changed their name and added a really pro level 36V line, with a great lifetime warranty, batteries that are backwards compatible(shame on u Makita) and all tools can use the AC adapter(saving money and increasing the tools workload capability) I love some of my other tools in different colors but the green is making me more money and getting the job done better I many applications-whats not to kike
@@baseballdude8491 Thanks for your perspective. I'm glad they have been a solid performer for you! I suppose my entire opinion could simply boil down to inexperience with the brand.
@@EricGrayEricLeePhotos no problem I've been a Milwaukee and Makita fan boy over the yrs but I have been disappointed in some of their tools and incessantly making me buy more and more batteries for higher run time tools like, table saw, vacuums, SDS Max rotary hammers, compressors and others and the AC adapter allows me to save battery life and longevity and down time
Makita frustrates me by not making their 40V batteries compatible to the 18V like Metabo HPT did-plus the prices have been better as well for most of the tools
I’m still kinda divided between getting the 18v or 36v impact driver
Have you cold tested their 4ah 36v batteries. I had 2 die and I didn't even use them when it was that cold. Both. Times I was using a grinder. Can you try this and see if it's the batteries. Or maybe some variable that I didn't think of
Is there alot of difference in the 18v and 36v tripple hammer? And what's the weight difference In them woth a battery
@9:45 Is that how you shake down tools for information?
My channel has a bunch I’m about to do a video on the 71/4 miter saw
Whays the weight of the 18v woth the battery
It looks like Metabo partnered with the wrong Brick and Mortar store, Lowes doesn't carry very many of their better 36volt tools.
Where do you recommending buy one from
I think until metabo qualifies well throughout most of there tool line in tool tests like Project Farm and Tool Box Buzz they will remain a lower tier tool line.
Project farm has only tested a few MHPT tools and if course picked the 18V Prosumer grinder/not the king of cordless grinders 36V(check tools N stuff if u need video proof) and then the other was the multi tool which is the 18V and a model that has been out for yrs
If he would actually test their Pro line 36V and other brands best-then he could call it the "best" but that is not normally what he does-he picks a few select brands and then cals best
Tool box buzz and tools N stuff do much better head to heads
Metabo HTP is owned by Hikoki, previous Hitachi. The Hikoki brand tools are basically the same and you can see those reviews from tool reviewers around the world. It's only North America that they're not widely used but most other countries they're one of the top tool brands.
But there are other tool test channels like Torque Test Channel that has done some tests you can check out like this one....

Does this have a loose trigger? Has any owners or users of previous models notice this? I recently got the older 18v and while it's great overall, the trigger seems oddly loose.
Not normal at all.
I had a bad battery 🔋 contacted metabo they send send it at your expense and we can send you a new one .. with they would have sent a shipping label but I guess it’s ok
My only concern is the oil spewing out as that seems to be a common thing with this model.
Oil can spew out of any impact driver if you work it hard enough. I have this tool and have not had that happen, been using it a few weeks. I would think if it was a common problem, it would've been addressed long ago. The triple hammer has been around for 6-7 years, and the brand has produced a plethora of successful impact drivers.
The IP56 is not rated for water immersion. Ingress protection of 7 or higher is needed.
Hello Workshop Addict
How the hell did that thing survive that water test ? Lol wtf it's not rated for that.
You should have switched hands on the comparison.
"Tripple"
You must be a Michigan man when you call northern Michigan “up north”…
ok here is the issue you are facing one everyone has batteries for other brands due to Metabo being a late comer to the cordless series of tools . most people do not diversify much and stick to what they already have batteries for . I completely disagree with this you should just get the best tool , get a combo set and get the free batteries . don't limit yourself to one platform . ok last is the issue that Metabo tools are not the best power in class other then some of the higher end . if you start to look at the table saw , rotary hammer drill , rebar bender , and a few other specialty items . they do have great features in all tools but when they do not have the same rated power . your in the video using an atomic a Dewalt low end brand vs a top the line Metabo . this would be more accurate if you used an Dewalt XR but still the Metabo is not the more powerful impact . the most powerful impact on the market right now is actually Ridgid at 2400 inc pounds and a lifetime warranty , followed by its parent company Milwaukee fuel double hammer at 2200 inc pounds . the fact that this one has three hammers makes it in part superior but when its power is rated 33 % less of a driving force i cant go buy it as what if I needed that 2400 inch pounds of Ridgid or the 2200 of Milwaukee the Dewalts are only 1850 . I do love Metabo tools and I suggest them to anyone but do your research and buy what you need to get the job done . if you just want a great tool look no further
Metabo vs the Dewalt atomic , the Metabo is the much more powerful tool
@@granttalbot7446 M18 gen3(and gen4)impact driver is rated at 2000in lbs. Gen3 is 3600rpm, and gen4 is 3900rpm
This one is rated at 1903 in lbs, and 3700 rpm. That's not a significant difference.
Makita's top 40v impact driver is rated at 1950in lbs, and 3700 rpm. They're all in the same ballpark. Of course, no one really needs that much power anyway. Speed is more important for what an impact driver is typically used for.
Ridgid has a habit of advertising wildly exaggerated specs.
Mehhhh…I don’t know.
They are boring.. the new stuff is the same as the old just with a battery no design changes. The platform does not give enough for us to join. Only good thing about this company is the cordless nailers.
hikoki (ex hitachi) usa (metabo hpt) is probably the best platform for 36v taking into consideration it can save you lots of money on batteries with the ac adapter their tools are typically japanese tools similar to makita when it comes to weight size and comfort and they are very close to makita in quality as well. the reason ppl don't know that much about them is because they don't invest in marketing that much and internationally they live in the shadow of makita which became popular around the world long before hitachi and these days they have so many tools compared to hitachi. In US i think they are the most underrated brand and to be honest i really love all brands i am not a fan boy but makita and hitachi in most of the cases are making better quality tools compared to us milwaukee and dewalt (i am talking about quality not about power or speed) and the only brands which compete with them in quality are metabo (germany) and bosch (some tools not all of them) unfortunately they are much pricier than makita and hitachi and when it comes to speed power they are way too far compared to rest of the brands. If we talk about power and speed i would say milwaukee and dewalt got an overall 10 (taking into consideration all their tools) makita and hikoki 9 and bosch metabo 8. For reliability and quality comfort makita hikoki 10 metabo bosch 9.5 milwaukee dewalt 8. and when it comes to features and control/precision also makita hikoki bosch and metabo are better than milwaukee and dewalt. I know some US patriots won't take this easily but this is the truth . However each brand has at least few tools that are the best compared to the other brands but here i was talking overall
