Check out our T-shirt Shop: bit.ly/3z98ryF and amazon store (that only includes winners): amzn.to/3rjhZ6P Stop by @PowerStrokeJude and say hi! Is a near $1,000 tool truck high torque impact from Snap-On really all that much different to a Milwaukee 2767 M18 FUEL? You'd hope it would be for the price, but Snap-On has nevertheless felt the need to come out with the new model CT9080 to replace CT9075 just to prove that point. Today we find out if that points been proven at all.
Torque of TTC is working for Astro Tools who also make impact wrenches (air). TTC is not the only testing out there, always consider multiple sources when looking at a tool! - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ

To clarify, not ALL of the CT9080's parts are sourced in the US even if assembled here. For instance its battery pack is made in Taiwan, with the cells inside no doubt Korea or similar. Which makes a lot of sense considering where some cordless components can realistically be found. Despite its price, were you surprised at the performance of this one considering the beans their smaller impacts are known for putting out?

Try the Milwaukee 2763 it is much smoother than the 2767!
Try and test the bauer 3/8 impact wrench
Didn't snap on have trouble undoing 450ft/lbs of torque and lost to the 12volt impact wrenches from Milwaukee/Dewalt?
I agree with US making the design... THAT'S WHY THEY CALL IT .US TOOLS.
BUT ALL THE PARTS ARE MADE ALL OVER THE WORLD . TAIWAN ,CHINA AND THE BOX AND LABEL MANU 🏷️ ARE FROM USA.. TO MEET SAFETY STANDARDS...
@@dieseldabz7104 make it clear is being designed over here in United States America .. that's why they say::
MADE IN AMERICA ..
I have been purchasing Snap On tools for 41 years. Every rechargeable tool including, flashlights, ratchets and impacts have come up short. All products are short lived and become obsolete almost overnight. On my first 1/2 cordless impact kit the batteries became obsolete within a year Snap Ons came out with a retrofit adapter for a new design battery to fit the tools it was a joke. I have moved away from the over inflated tool truck products. It's pretty much like dealing with Mr. Haney on the Green Acres sitcom. A word of advice to you young mechanics, over inflated tools prices doesn't make you a better technician, finding less expensive tools to get the job done makes you a smarter technician. As you get older and look back, you'll wish you would have saved that tool money for things that really matter.
Hand tools, I still respect snap on. Power tool though, I'd have to pass
Agreed. My dad is an experienced mechanic and he works out of an old craftsman toolbox he got on sale at sears. The box is probably 20 years old and still holds tools just fine.
He did invest in some snap on pneumatics that have finally started to show their age (probably nearly 15 years old).
Fortunately, I was able to acquire the same sense of value and have a decent set of tools that I procured at rather large discounts by going second hand or simply understanding the type of quality I need for weekend work.
30 year old tech here, where were you 4 years ago when I got on tht damn truck for the first time.... Snap on is garbage on there electric stuff! Have em all and they ALL died right after warranty! Junk!!
@@masterxiong7368 the tolerances on my snapon wrenches make every other tool look like a fucking joke lol and yesh I break my snapon sockets more than the Chinese I use everyday but same as the wrenches they fit just perfect and that feel...
Milwaukee forever sir.
Over here at the Penny Savings Financial Planning Channel, we recommend buying 6 of the Rigid Octanes on sale at DTO rather than the Snap-On.
Snap on has about a 50% profit margin on their tools, so there is that
@@dieseldabz7104 not in a lot of cases
@@dieseldabz7104 Not when it comes to battery powered equipment.
@@dieseldabz7104 absolutely not the case. As a professional diesel technician with over $65,000 in tools and tools from all the big manufacturers, my money goes to mac tools hands down for pretty much everything but power tools, which my money then goes to milwaukee.
I'll keep the milwaukee with the deep tool/battery lineup and the stack of Benjamin's in my wallet.
Smart man
10% more power for 3x the price.
I can agree and if I need mo power I will and have gotten the 3/4 impact and or the 1 in impact and have the high power batteries to power them already.
@dieseldabs
Is the extra 60~70 foot lbs you get from a strap on worth the extra 600+ dollars that you are gonna pay for it? At that price point I would at least expect a better warranty.
@@masterglaizer5918 I love having ONE way overpriced battery for my Snap On that literally does nothing else but power my Snap on impact. Huge waste of money for my shop.
I’ll continue to use Milwaukee.. never let me down
Milwaukee is just tough nothing better
I'm a high horsepower diesel mechanic (19-95 liter engines) and I've had the Milwaukee 1/2" high torque for 3 years with no noticeable loss in power.
@@estebanchavarin143 alot is better
I’ll continue using my Makita when your Milwaukee is in the shop for one of its numerous repairs.
@@cowboy3490 I have both snap on and Milwaukee. Only complaint is I’m always going through my Milwaukee batteries only getting about 5-6 months on my impacts have had my ingersoll rand w7150 when they first came out and it’s still going strong with the same 2 batteries it came with
its the price point they call it "the Milwaukee Killer" but its over twice the price I bet Milwaukee could do way better if they decided to make a more powerful one around the price point of the snap on
For sure it kills your wallet.
@@tj4683 But, to SnapOffs credit, they've put together a racket that leads to people actually choosing to buy their MASSIVELY overpriced junk, and that's one hell of an achievement to pull off. It's like they've almost created a 'pay day loan' kinda brutal service, except for mechanics lol. Even the other tool trucks often don't hit SO prices, yet people are STILL buying the damn stuff!
@@RyTrapp0 very true, snap on tool boxes are disgustingly expensive, some guys spend more on those setups than on the diesel truck they drive
@@RyTrapp0 you obviously don't have a really good snap on dealer do you? I know its expensive but damn I can get all my tools replaced for free except for power tools which all you have to do is send it off for $125 if it ever tears up outside of the warranty and then you have a brand new snap on tool again. Pay once cry once...
@@roylowery1329 last Milwaukee tool I had fail on the job I had a Milwaukee rep reach out to be from a TH-cam comment and over night the tool with return shipping for the broken one. They have some pretty good customer service in my experience.
It only took them 5 years to finally do it... and still 3 times the price... well done Snap Off 😂
And a 1/4 of the warranty
This exactly snap on was finally barely able to beat Milwaukee at 3 times the price and 5 years later.
And SIGNIFICANTLY larger too
Milwaukee is made in Vietnam where the average factory worker makes $1.34 per hour. In the US the average factory worker makes almost $24. The tool is assembled in the US but the anvil, hammer, case are made 100% in the US. Batteries and ESC are made in Asia. I think the brushless motor might be US too.
How long before you think it'll let the smoke out?
I'll bet right after it's crappy warranty expires!
It’s a no thank you from me. Price and size. Rather get a 3/4, and have some more beans and heavier sockets, and definitely still cheaper. Thank you very much “Test” for holding tight during those runs!!
Yeah I bet that 3/4 Milwaukee would have taken the honda bolt off...
It really is unbalanced to hold i think, me and a lad i work with both agreed first time it got thrown at us on the truck. If your working with a large, deep impact socket on the nose it would only make it worse i feel
@@Mis73rRand0m Or the Makita one. Either way they're both really impressive tools
I have the 2864-2 and can confirm that it’d eat this thing alive
Been their and done that. Have owned SnapOn cordless tools and nothing but issue. Bought Milwaukee and NO issues, like none. Big price savings too!.
Looks like they took it from my tool set when I was 5 years old, threw a motor in it and said let’s triple the price of the Milwaukee, it’ll sell.
There r a bunch of idiots that will buy. But not me!!!!
“Most expensive high torque you can buy”
No you cannot buy it it’s so expensive
It’s not too expensive, you’re just too poor
you gotta love China.. or thats how it would be .
I'll just sell my limbs on the black market to pay it off. Easy
@@robbiethornhill634 or just smart.... On not spending more for something that's bigger than a 1 inch gun 😂🤣🤣🤣
Some of this depends on what kind of relationship you have with a tool man and will he cover you on the warranty, my Cornwell guy covered me, so I bought a torque multiplier (pneumatic) and now the Milwaukee has it easy just running the nuts.
Those honda crank bolts are no joke. I gave up on my impact and pulled a spark plug, stuffed the cylinder with soft rope, rotated the crank to stop it. I then put a floor jack on the handle of my breaker bar and dang near lifted the van off the ground before the bolt moved. Sketchy as all get out but it worked. Supposedly, the extra thick wall impact sockets really help.
You should check out the weighted socket episode, very cool stuff
Honda mechanic here. A Lisle weighted socket is a must. The weighted Lisle socket, along with a 6.0 amp battery and my Milwaukee M18 2767 high torque have taken off 51 Honda crank bolts so far. The Lisle weighted socket is 100% needed. It only cost about $22 so its super cheap for what you are getting.
@@Speed00007 thank you for sharing this knowledge
That’s the exact type of first hand knowledge that I enjoy hearing.
Tool brand loyalty doesn’t mean dick when the actual answer is in the technique of solving the problem.🤘🏻👍
@@Speed00007 I wanted one but no one local had one and I had to get wife's grocery getter back on the road so I couldn't wait for mail order.. Sometimes, mothers are the mothers of invention, haha.
OMG, OMG, OMG, it’s the episode I’ve been waiting for!
That Snap On just looks ugly and basic. Impressive numbers though. I will say though if people want USA made stuff they better get used to paying 4x what we have been paying.
What here is made in America?
@@iampotates The Snap-On is claimed to be made in America with foreign sourced parts.
@@sixtyfiveford the anvil, hammer, case etc are all made in the US including the brushless motor. All the materials, machining, heat treating etc are US sourced. The battery and ESC are made in Asia.
@@sixtyfiveford ah so it's assembled in USA with global components. Not sure why the couldn't specify that instead of implying everything is sourced, made and assembled here.
Plenty of companies state assembled in USA with global components so it's a pretty well known phrase even in the power tool and hand tool realm.
Honestly I don't really care where things are made I do prefer American made but I'm not going to seek it out specifically but there are people that do and this is disingenuous marketing.
ThankYou For weighing in on this. You & TTC. South Main Auto ,JDTCo. All are 💯%er ❤️🏴☠️🎥💯%👍🏻 👌
Thanks fellas. You and project farm are doing great work.
Crazy how I’m debating on buying the new snap on hun and you come out with this video you read my mind
Good stuff. I'd also want to point out that the Snap-on CT-9080 and Ct-9075 internals are beefy. These have bigger bearings and anvils than a lot of the competitors, and the caged brushless motor is better protected for longevity. Some people don't care about those things or just want the torque numbers. So I totally get why it's fair to criticize the price. I just thought it's worth pointing out, that might explain some of the cost and size of it.
It’s pretty common knowledge that snapon tool have a 40% markup.. so in reality people are paying $950 for a $570 tool
That's all great until this time next year when it goes in for service and it's obsolete, and they offer you 50 bones towards the new and improved
Thank you for mentioning it. Now I feel better about my recent purchase of a CT9080XCE 😎
I'd like to see if removing the muffler on air impacts increases the speed and or torque. All the old timers have removed all their mufflers and swear it makes a noticeable difference.
Check out our Snap-On MG725 episode where we take the muffler out: th-cam.com/video/mdneet_0T1Y/w-d-xo.html
I mean removing a muffler from an impact that normally has one.
Well, I'm betting that their hearing is already trashed. I like quiet in tools, and ear plugs. I don't want to need hearing aids when I'm 60.
@@yamomsahoe Correction, it's this episode. The other Snap-On impact we take the muffler out of: th-cam.com/video/mdneet_0T1Y/w-d-xo.html
@@jonnda what ? ?
Pleasure as always folks! Looking forward to the next
I love you channel, hope tool truck companies don't kidnap you! 😜
Another superb video guys. Loving your shirt too. First out of the wardrobe if it’s clean. 👏👏👏
Nice!
I was surprised with the results. I didn't think the Snapon was going to live up to the hype and price. I would never buy it (way too big and clunky) but it is a good motivational win for Snapon customers.
Yeah, I don't have any special bonds towards a truck tool, but I'm happy see it's not a repackaged copy of an existing tool for double the price.
Speed00007 it’s not actually any larger than milwaukees offering. I have both and the Snap-on is definitely a beast. But it does come with that Snap-on price tag.
@@bulygoat It does deliver the beans and at the end of the day thats all that matters.
Agreed however longevity is a huge problem for snap on battery impacts in my experience and when im giving them abuse 10 hrs a day 6 days a week I think ill keep my milwaukee even if I do have to cable tie the battery to the gun to stop it wobbling and cutting out 👍
@@georgedawson235 interesting... I work on mining equipment and the milwakees are always breaking and the turn around time for repairs is terrible. We got all new Snap-On 9080s and so far so good. Only time will tell. I know millwakee also stopped warranty certain batteries regardless if they're under warranty or not( it's on their website).
Love seeing IR commercial while watching your videos, always worth a laugh.
Subaru technician here I've been waiting for this video. Because I have Snap-on half inch and Milwaukee 3/8. Been wanting to upgrade to the Milwaukee half inch
Snap on impact looks like a fire hydrant with a handle
I laughed at this . It really does
Great stuff as always. For me, it's about picking a platform. Nothing worse than having to support three or four different battery platforms with different batteries and different chargers and different tools. There is some stuff I do buy Snap-On and wouldn't buy anything else...but as far as cordless goes, I've had zero issues with all my Fuel line-up tools and when I did have to replace them...it was so much easier on the pocketbook.
I'm with ya there. I am a field service tech and I don't need extra chargers cluttering up my service truck. I have 1 charger that plugs into a cigarette lighter outlet and it charges the 12V batteries along with the 18V batteries. That leaves more room for tools.
I agree I have tools from every company including companies that don’t exist anymore I myself bought what I liked more than anything else but with cordless I’m all dewalt I only work on my
own cars now so I buy the dewalt stuff and just added the high torque 1/2” but haven’t tried it yet but I have all the batteries for it I did add the Milwaukee 12v cordless ratchet though. My son talked me into the new 1/2” he loves it I still was pulling out my compressor and using my 25 year old IR 1/2” it’s never let me down!
OoOooooOoOoOoo this is gonna be a great video! Thank you sooo much TTC!
I always enjoy your videos. Thank you.
Have done a few Honda timing belts, and the kryptonite for the crank bolt is the extra thick crank bolt socket. That with a decent impact, comes out pretty quickly.
Lisle LIS-77080 works great for me, it was a game changer when it came out!
The Snappy clearly has a special “vibrating rust and dirt” feature that is worth the 3x price tag! That Honda video shows the whole car vibrating and dirt falling off of it. I could it recommend a tool that vibrates so much to anybody!!! It could cause long term damage to someone’s hands.
Great video TTC
It would be cool to see some torque tests with e-draulic rescue tools. O-cutters, spreaders, combi tools, rams etc.
Lol they would shear the plate the test gear is mounted to.
Hope you guys plan on doing an occasional live stream where we can all hang out together and chat... Toss around ideas... And maybe make some donations as well.
Yo TTC you guys are the best keep it up.
Hi, I just got the ct9080 and it’s an absolute beast, the vibration will give you a workout when it’s impacting a stubborn bolt and will pull the bolt off within five seconds or so, worth every penny, excellent demonstration ty,
Congratz on the purchase Robert!
Very impressive and thank you doing the actual test without being too political and crap. Let the numbers speak for themselves nevertheless, anyone who owns truck tool brand impacts or non-truck tool brands they still get the job done. It based on you preference that’s all. No one needs to get butt hurt on it. Snap-on does make quality tools so does Milwaukee with their massive battery line-up on tools. But I’ll still get Milwaukee due to options & availability.
Since I was already on the M18 & M12 platform, that's all I get. Don't want more than two battery platforms. Plug in stuff, I pick the most cost effective, not loyal to any brand there.
@@phillipsofthedriver true!
Would love to see more 3/4 air impacts being tested. Electric is cool but tried and true air is always good to have around.
Unfortunately air can’t go everywhere I can pack my battery powered stuff to the bone yard easier than the air compressor trailer and all of the tools that come with it
I have gone to alot of sites that legit don't have enough air power to run a 1 inch impact or have alot of water in their lines. I just pack my 3/4 milwaukee impact and it has never let me down yet. There are times where yes I need to run the 1 inch impact and we have to run it for a hot second to get the job done but most times my cordless milwaukee gets the job done. Honestly it's a toss up. Just depends on where your at or have access to air or not
All these torque test have been great and a few are quite comparable within a few ft-lbs of each other. What I would like to see is a loaded speed comparison in all the tools. Guns, ratchets, etc. Rarely to you need to use a tool for max torque. But speed matters. This is why I sometimes choose air over cordless. I use my M18 3/8" more than anything. But my Mac 1/2" & 3/8" compacts have good power and run at 10,000rpm. The 1/2" zips lugnuts or anything else it can break loose at almost NASCAR Thundergun speed.
You ain't kidding on rusted leaf spring bolts. I had to change out some on my hunting buggy trailer, which isn't treated well, with my XWT08Z. Took about 30 minutes of 5-10 sec impacts, spray with Deep Creep, let sit, repeat. I was one more use away before I got out the torch but finally got the nut to break free.
The 3/4" 40V Makita is more powerful, shorter and cheaper. Much better option.
for the left money you can buy whole range of 3/4 impact sockets too :D
@@simasm.9757 That's what reducers are for.
@@Kevin-gb9ux just be sure to get a good one that will hold up....I can recommend the SNAP ON reducer.
@@cameronduff884 I've used snap on impact, matco impact, husky impact, craftsman chrome, harbor freight chrome and impact. Some go a good while before they break, but they all eventually snap. Would like to see them tested. I use them all the time.
I'll take the under $200 Ridged all day long...🏁
Problem with the ridgid he's showing here is that finding the 3ah octane batteries is very difficult. And he did show on the Ridgid high torque episode, those are the batteries their high torque gun likes the best.
I've got two nines and two threes☝️
I just bought both Snapon of the big kits and I love them.
Good Stuff, Great Tips👍🏿😀
Snap-On continues to provide less power in a given package while costing over 3 times as much as Milwaukee. Both have chinese motors, controlers, and batteries but SO is "assembled in USA"
I mean, this one might be overpriced, but it didn't "provide less power."
Snap On has turned into the Apple of tools
Well the CEO, CFO, COO, CO?, and COC need those yachts, Bugatti's, and 10k square foot summer homes. You can't expect them to give that up just so they can pay a decent wage and have their tools made in America. Just because they were able to do that for years with corporate tax rates above 50% doesn't mean they can do that now and afford to bathe in puppy dog tears and virgin blood.
it has the most power
@@sparks2429 I’ve had several Androids, all garbage compared to my iPhones. Switched and never looked back
My Snap-on guy keeps trying to sell me these things. For that price it isn't ever going to happen.
DP really stepping up their game
Great content 👍
So pretty much you pay double price for an extra 50 ft lbs… sounds about right for snap on.
Double the price, and half again the size!
Plus the premature ejaculation of it's smoke!
My milwaukee seems perfectly alive at the end of this. Fuck that price.
I struggled with Honda crank bolts for a long time until I found out about the special weighted sockets made for taking them off and they freaking work! I personally like the Ingersoll cordless impact bc it's a work horse but as long as it gets the job done then who cares what you have.
Thats been a known thing for a very very long time
I bought a CT9080 and I gotta say it’s beefy but it puts down the power very well, I got a good deal on it with a single battery from my snap on guy. I’d recommend the 3/8 14.4v impact as well from Snap-On.
I have a top end snap on box filled with snap on hand tools, and there's not a god damn chance imma pay $1000 plus for that kinda gains, especially when my 3/4, and 1 inch guns are right there, and a nice pneumatic 3/4 is probably smaller in profile.
"I have a top end snap on box filled with snap on hand tools"
but..
why
@@chrishayes5755 if you dont know, you wouldnt get it.
@@Slicko316 Well said and very true. Lot of Snap On hate here. Plenty of things on that truck I wouldn’t buy. Plenty I wouldn’t give up or trade for anything either…..wrenches being the first.
@@tebo2770 love my Snap-on Flank Drive plus wrenches. Their cordless tool are just meh, but I bought them because at the time my job would pay for them to be refurbished. I think its a $129 fee to have them completely refurbished. I got mine refurbushed every year. But now I'd go Milwaukee.
@@Jackmerius_Tacktheretrix Honestly, I have an amazing driver. He has typically not charged me to put head kits in my electric ratchets which is the only thing I ever have go out. So, to me…The BIGGEST part of buying from snap on is my driver. Couldnt care less about the brand name or any of that. I pay what I pay to support an amazing local guy who gives his all and then some to help us week in and week out.
If I’m paying 3x as much for a tool, it better be 3x better. The snap on obviously isn’t. Milwaukee for the win!!!
I think even if it was twice as good or maybe even 50% it would be worth it for some high end users but it’s shit
@@mattkaplan1316 - True!!! I use snap - on hand tools as a mechanic, but there’s no way in hell i’m paying $1,000 for something SLIGHTLY better than a $300 tool, when I already own Milwaukee tools, and batteries.
@@chesterswingjr9796 Exactly. Their hand tools are the best but damn expensive but they can't hope to compete with a company that exclusively sells power tools. Snap on shouldn't even bother making power tools.
Love the channel and the test, both methods and commentary. If I need more torque than Milwaukee, there is always air in the shop. $near 1000 is too much for me...
Your 1/2" air impacts are making more torque?
I want one, just because Snappy tools always look and feel great and it gives me that little tingle in my pants to buy a new one...but there's no way I could sleep at night with that bill.
I love snap on hand tools but I’m no fan of their cordless stuff. Also their prices are insane I just had to say at 3:56 to 4mins something broke of that ugly drill. Keep up the awesome videos!!!👌👍
Lol I just saw that thing fly out
I think it was just air from the motor blowing some debris across the table.
Some old timers tell me to help out impact guns grab the socket and twist as hard as you can in the direction you were going to be using the impact gun as you use it. Personally I’ve noticed that helps obviously. Could you do a test to see if the help is just the added torque I’m giving by twisting, or if it’s actually helping out the gun?
Those old timers aren't used to the new style tools and their tendencies to grenade sockets.
So yeah, help it all you want!
Good video man 😀 keep healthy 👍
its 12:52am here in au and im eating icecream after nightshift installing cable tray.
im glad you uploaded
Best comment I’ve read in the entire comment section! 🙌🏻
As a technician, I hear many other techs say Snap on’s 18V series of tools has been less than spectacular. I love their 14.4 line up of tools but when it comes to the bigger things, I choose Milwaukee and dewalt/Mac.
New 40v makita
Snap on has finally impressed me, as most of their power tools are the equivalent to a Bauer power tool. The price, however surprised me that someone can even charge that much for one and peole willbuy it. I've also heard the snap on power tools can be unreliable over time, but I would like to hear other peoples experience with them and if they are reliable or not.
from our side we are doing hard mechanic, and we really abuse them, inside outside winter, dusty dry summer ( live in a rural sandy place in Quebec )... Dewalt was doing the job but was not sturdy enough, cracked plastic etc etc, milwaukee was good enough got some trouble and a long waiting time with the warranty, then it happens again, makita was pretty much the best bang for bucks overall and are still running strong very tough that is my remark! for snap on we got 75% of our big tools from them, price is ridiculous, but the performance is there without always being the best, they are well built and survive the roughness of my grand father and the weather, the service from snap on is really nice and fast ( depends the guy you trade with) warranty is strong, batteries are still running after 5 years and fits with the new ones so for my perspective if you run these daily and really need them snap on do suits us better and makita. milwaukee is still the best performance/cost wise but depending of your seller, warranty can be a pain and really bugs us, and the tools were less tough from what we saw!
I've been waiting for this episode 😍
Great video 👍
This came out great guys, you surprised me with my cameo lol. I can't wait to see part 3 of the series. And just a FYI, I didn't pay retail, no trade in either. My boy Roscoe (my Snap-on dealer) hooked me up!!!
I was going to mention that as well. Snap On has absurd prices and we can all agree on that, but most of us rarely ever pay retail unless it’s small stuff. Drivers are pretty good about dealing great discounts. I only mention this because the price of this tool gets constantly mentioned over and over and over throughout.
@@tebo2770 exactly dude, it seems like two out of three comments here are commenting on $$$ lol this is The Torque Test Channel not the Best Price Channel!!!
Sold my whole snap on battery tool lineup for Milwaukee awhile ago. No plans on going back. With that being said I purchased a minorly used Snap on impact (same one in this video) with one battery and charger for $150 off the cornwell truck. Gave it to my mother and step dad for use on the Farm.
I said it in the last video, but the size of the SnapOn puts it among the 3/4" drive tools just with a mini 1/2" anvil. This even jives with the Beanometer readings.
I have the 100th anniversary edition and I love it, the grey looks awesome and I use it every day
the price of the snap on impact is just rediculous... when you can just go milwaukee for half or even a third of the price
Yep. Was at Home Depot tonight, and I could buy 3 Milwaukee guns, (not that you would need 3) and STILL have beer & pizza money left!!! There’re $299 for the bare tool.
You can buy 3 Milwaukee's for one of those highway robbery priced Strap On
Had several snap on electric tools. Won’t go back even if they halved the extortionate prices. Always seem fantastic on the van when new, but a year down the line and all the batteries are dead and the guns are on there last legs. Milwaukee soldier on for years for a lot cheaper. Makes me laugh when the snap on van comes round with its ‘offer sheets’, special offer 10-19mm spanner’s £400 plus vat 😂. Can’t believe I used to pay it
I love getting a milwaukee and a year down the road the batteries fall out everytime you tilt it.. thats my favorite part..
Just got my 9080 a couple weeks ago thing is a monster takes off 500 ft lb lug nuts in the rust belt no problem
HEY MAN I REALLY LOVE THE SNAP-OFF TOOLS😆😆😆👍👍👍
The battery life is awesome on the snap on. Can work all day putting tires on and off i love mine
The one thumbsdown guy owns the new snapon gun 😂
How do Milwaukee got killed
@@JeremyBrightenburg when your tool costs 250 bare and loses marginally to a tool that costs twice as much, I’ll save my extra 250 and get the Milwaukee. They didn’t get killed they proved what everyone thought snapon already was, a rip off
I just started as a Diesel Tech less than one year. All my battery power tools are Milwaukee. As I also work in the construction business and seen a few things. Milwaukee is the best option for me. I have bought tools from Mac Tools, Matco tools, Gearwrench. They all stop at the shop I work. Even snapon. I stepped inside snapon only once. Their prices are ridiculous high. I have to say Gearwrench has the best prices but the other trucks have other tools I need. Snapon is not for me. Unless the other trucks don’t have the tools I need then I’ll probably buy from snapon
I got a snap on 2weeks ago love it
Loud and clear, Milwaukee is still better lol
And Milwaukee doesn't prematurely ejaculate it's smoke out!
When are yall gonna test the EIGHT HUNDRED dollar 3/8 "mid-torque" rated for a little over 200 ft-lbs? I have first hand experience with it, it couldnt even strip a drain plug
I’m really hoping you didn’t pay for that one yourself, that sounds like a case of drinking the punch at church and watching the preacher fly off in his new jet
@@alexmills1329 lol no, my boss did... the total cost of the Snap-On "mid torque", 2 5aH batteries, and a charger was almost $1,000 after tool truck markup and taxes. All my power tools are Milwaukee.
Edit: to be fair, he got it in neon orange, so you can spot it from a mile away on a cloudy day
The thing with the mid size and compact 18V Snap-On's is no one that owns one is really all that willing to see it on here against all the others. And there's no way we're dropping that coin for the performance we're expecting, for now. We'd rather spend your guy's $ on stuff that might be awesome.
@@TorqueTestChannel fair enough, thanks for the reply!
@@TorqueTestChannel Maybe @Koon Trucking or @Justin Dow can send you some of their Snap-on impacts to see how they perform.
I love this channel
Thank very much for the comparing!!!!!
Finally!!!!!😂😂
Imagine if Makita decided to put a half inch anvil on that XGT… it’s smaller, more powerful and cheaper with better battery options.
I'm unsure if a 1/2" anvil would survive, but it would be hard to not call it the top dog in 1/2" that's for sure. Of course that's if the 1/2" anvil brings the same force as the 3/4"
@@TorqueTestChannel I assume it would based off of seeing how your testing went with 3/8 and 1/2 inch went. But yeah I can definitely see how at these power levels a small anvil probably wouldn’t be long for this world. It will be pretty crazy to see if all these tools start to plateau due to maxing out the material properties of a forged anvil.
@@TorqueTestChannel I've got an angle grinder and a torch. I'm sure I could make it 1/2"! Temper that bad boy back up, what could go wrong?
@@-tr0n do itttt!!!
At 3x the price is hope it'd beat the Milwaukee, that said, I'm just a home gamer who works on some rusty crap (it's amazing what friends and family will find that needs fixed) and honestly couldn't justify the difference in price over the M18, especially as that's the battery flavor I've already invested in.
i have a ct9080 and i think you made the right choice. i love mine but the price difference isnt necessary if you’re working at stuff around the home
The way he said coming in at a wallet crunching $972, I don’t know why that made me laugh so hard
I bought the Matco 1/2 inch it works really well. I use it on heavy equipment.
Fwiw, I'll take made in USA, assembled in USA, over anything made in China.
Assembled in USA with motors, controllers, and bodys made in china. For 4 times as much, drinking the Snap-On koolaid hard.
You used to be able to say that about Milwaukee as well. The batteries and electronics for snap on are made in China like everybody else. Which is very unfortunate and a sign of the times
@@michaelmcgregor3108, you're 100% right. I was shocked when I found out Milwaukee wasn't made in the USA.
I bought a snapon cordless in 2006. I used it today. Talk all you want, but snapon makes a good tool. I recently bought this one in the video. It's a beast.
Just bought my first impact it was a Milwaukee so do that make me a fan boy!
I’ve always loved my Snap On tools. I do believe that as they say “there is a difference” especially when it comes to their hand tools. I also like that a lot of them are made in the USA. But like all other manufacturers no one manufacturer, not even Snap On, makes the best of every tool in every class. I won’t lie I’m glad to see Snap On on top but for that price they damn well better be. For my money I would buy many Snap On tools but when it comes to cordless I’d buy Milwaukee. Air tools would be either Ingersol Rand, Astro, Air Cat, or the Thor gun, I’d have to look into them more before purchasing. For a scope I’d go with Pico, and for meters Fluke. But that’s just my two cents.
Finally someone that understands the difference between “bolt/nut busting torque” vs TRUE Working torque. Bolt Busting torque is simply just a marketing ploy.
Didnt realize I wasn't subbed. So now I am. Like added as well
I'm actually happy to see it be the top dog, for the price it should be.
Octane high torque and mid torque combo is $299 on HD right now. Christmas coming early for me 🤙
I bought one not to long ago on a "deal" I really like it... its good gun. That said I have good air in the shop,at good pressure and volume and I still reach for my ir 2235 almost every time.
Hey guys, love the videos as always. Any chance you get your hands on one of the new Flex 24v 1/2" high torque impact wrenches? I'm very curious to see how they stack up amongst the well established brands. Cheers!
We did the week it came out!
@@TorqueTestChannel Nice! You guys always beat me to the punch haha. Thanks!
You guys have done a fair effort on the power impacts BUT we want too see more from these big boys
MAYBE show us who has the most powerful batteries by using a makita battery on Milwakee etc
pretty much make a battery-like jig and wire each battery into each gun and show us who’s REALLY performs well!
They have a 3/4 that’s a beast!
I was debating this exact investment not that long ago, thanks for making the graph
12:00 This is when you get out your 12 foot breaker bar and just remove it anyway. 😆
Such a funny commentary to date.😂
I love my Snap-On tools. I work in heavy equipment / hydraulics. If you've been in my industry you know you will destroy your stuff, and time is money. I don't have time to wait around and ship stuff back and wait for warranty claims. I don't have time to drive to retail stores and get stuff warrantied with the possbility of it not being in stock. My guy is there every week, has what I need, and doesn't ask questions. That's why I don't mind paying more. Just let people buy what they want to buy.
That's pretty cool.
