I used th-cam.com/users/postUgkx4ynqaujg7rZKFapA8s29kTpRszJGa3-K this for the first time today to replace the front wheel bearing on my rwd 98 dodge dakota. This had absolutely no issue removing or reinstalling the lug nuts and it took off the axle nut without any struggle. Sounds like it's got some muscle to it. Time will tell
The IR was something I was going with 5 years ago but the milwaukee M12 ratchet was something I was more interested in and I'm happy with my choice of milwaukee. The M12 with the M18 allows so much versatility with a large selection of tools.
It’s often easier for the manufacturer trying to beat the first or most popular brand, since they have a set target to beat. I wouldn’t be surprised if IR releases an improved tool shortly. Both are really great tools, i’d go more by which batteries I already have around really. Or maybe who has a sale.
We would love to see IR release something new again, but I'm not sure that will happen. They seem to have let their cordless lineup just sit idle. Thanks for watching.
Appreciate the review. Ingersoll was first on with the high and mid torque impacts along with the 90 degree impact. Then everyone else followed and as much as I hate to admit it Milwaukee took their ideas and made more power. Not bad at all.
2nd best after Makita's. (in this class as well as compact) IR has high torque. And Milwaukee has 1" and subcompact, at least until Dewalt's new 12V wrench is out, assuming it delivers on their claims.
I'm in construction now but back in the 1980s I was a tire man. The best impact you could use back then was in Ingersoll Rand. But these were air tools obviously. They better get it together because they can't ride on their name in this market. There's too many good cordless drivers.
Yes, IR had the industry wrapped for decades, but the cordless market is taking away the pneumatic market. IR cordless tools were great, but they haven't done anything new in years. Thanks for watching.
Oh right! My man! Finally we get Ingersoll rand into the game. Keep them coming because there are way more cordless Ingersoll rand tools than just that
Thanks for this review. I'm not someone who sticks to the same platform I feel as though evey brand has their shining star... Milwaukee seems to have a galaxy of stars that I need!!!!!!
I've owned Milwaukee and I currently own the Ingersoll Rand 3/8 impact. From personal experience I would say the Ingersoll Rand seems like a better build. The battery is not loose on the tool and it just feels very well constructed.
Loose battery usually not bad . Ive dealt with tight ones and you have to bang them or file and lube ( it can be a bitch). Sometimes loose is better and still gets the job done if you know what i mean.
@@spf-92.5 I use M18 Fuel tools including this impact in the video. All Milwaukee m18 tools have batteries that are tight and a little difficult to remove.
I have the newest version of the ingersoll rand andI have had it for a year. I work on cars with it and I was impressed with it at first, but now it just seems to bulkly and heavy for the output for a tool that you have to grab all day. I do tons of brakes on cars and small trucks. Also the grip is starting to swell already. I'm thinking of just going to all milwaukee. I have some m12s at home that I use and I'm super impressed with them.
i recently got the compact 1/2 inch milwaukee m18. thing is amazing. had rusted on tundra caliper bolts. even though i had to use a swivel socket, m18 ran that off very quickly. highly recommend. or even the mid torque since it's still pretty compact compare to snappy 3/8 or 1/2 inch impact
Me personally, I would rather have a 1/2 inch anvil on the Milwaukee than a 3/8 inch because I feel the Milwaukee impact wrench is putting too much power on that tiny anvil, it's anyone's guess how long that will hold up. Great video though.
For car service IR is way to go...I have w7152 and it is beast and i plan buy mid torqe to..This tool is 6years when is came out and it is respect for IR..
Ive been using the mid torque for just one years work toyota flat rate. I grab my air tools more often because the weight of the ingersoll is to much for the power output. Also, the grip is already swelling. That 6 ounce and extra power the Milwaukee has is where it at I think.
Love my IR mid things great and the body feels great and it’s a softer plastic, I’d buy that over any Milwaukee’s gen anything. And then my Mac/ dewalt mid
Why? Look at makita man, their new compact XWT14Z can put up 330ft/lbs fastening in 10 seconds, the GWT04Z compact can do 350ft/lbs. the 40V mid torque makita can do 550ft/lbs in tightening and they are well built tools.
These tools are great but they are for small work like brakes, calipers, and lug nuts on cars but personally if you want to be fast just get Milwaukee's high torque or a half inch air ingersoll rand
The half-inch version of the Milwaukee Gen-2 mid-torque impact (model 2962) has 650ft-lbs breakaway. I haven't been able to find a fastener on a passenger car that it couldn't remove. Suspension, crank bolts, you name it. The high-torque impacts have their place, but are hardly ever needed in day to day practice now that the mid-torques have gotten so powerful.
I removed the Honda crank pulley bolt with the Milwaukee mid torque 3/8 using the Lisle 19mm socket wit adapter..axle nuts are also a piece of cake with the Milwaukee mid torque
They don’t need to! IR made the necessary revisions to the most popular selling impacts which can be exemplified in the W 7152, W 5133, and the W5153. Sometime during the last decade a nut busting torque war started which I are decided that it was not even going to try to win. The cordless tools that they put out can get any job done. It is just a matter of using the right tool for the job. For example, that 33 mm socket of yours is axle nut Territory and when I take out axle nuts I’m not reaching for a mid torque impact, for that type of job I reach for my Ingersoll rand W 7150 high torque impact wrench which, has not lost a match against an axle nut in the seven years that I’ve owned it fantastic content though! Keep them coming and let’s see some more IR
Everyone purely going off the highest torque completely unaware of how to choose tools. The IR is the better impact of the two for features, they just need more go go
On the Milwaukee are you able to shut the light off? Like if you were working with a partner who was under the vehicle you would shut it off to not blind them.
comments are still about flex hating, your videos seem to be nothing but actual facts and flex looks like a great tool.................. I still just bought a Milwaukee set but i won't hate on flex.
That's the HYTORC Lion torque guns. They're awesome, but they're pretty expensive. I'll post the video review of them below. Thanks for watching. th-cam.com/video/yALFkJz0iSs/w-d-xo.html
yeah all good and well Milwaukee is stronger where I was working we had to sister trucks the same I had my own IR the other truck had the company's own how many times i seen wheel studs on the the steer bent from over tightening and snap off I never had that problem once
You hit the nail right on the head brother! I own the W 5132 and the original W 7150. There would be no way that I would reach for my 5132 to crack something loose that has been tighten down to 400 foot pounds and above. If I know that I’m going to need to break out the judge that’s when the 5 Amp battery goes on the 7150. The 7150 has never let me down
In my experience, both of them will take off whatever they’re put up against but the Milwaukee takes it off quicker. That’s the only difference I’ve seen with them. They’re both awesome power tools and it really comes down to your preference and what tool platform you already have.
All 18V batteries when fully charged will read 20V. There’s no voltage difference between “18V” and “20V” batteries. Same number of cells in series to create 18V. When charged all the way up, they read 20V, once they’re used a little, they read 18 nominal volts. Thanks for watching
@@loucifer323 The voltage referenced above is a "no load" voltage. That's why it's considered a gimmick. Go look it up. Power tool companies sued each other for false advertising in the past because of these "20v" claims.
hello I would like if you could try these models Hilti SIW 9-A22-Volt and 3/4 in ... Hilti SIW T-A-22-Volt 1/2 in ... Hilti SIW 6AT-22-Volt 1 / 2in. Thanks
I personally went with the Ingersoll because all the others look like kids' supersoakers. I'm contempt with the torque output of the IR, if I need a higher output I also have the W7152 1/2" drive that pretty much takes off everything. I do admit that Milwaukee has a more complete lineup of cordless tools, but IR makes all the ones for my particular needs. Also IR has the small W1130, which is my favorite of them all, superlight and powerful enough for most engine fasteners, got the big boys for the suspension stuff.
I've got the 2960 and it's my first impact. Have had it for a few months now and have used it a handful of times doing mostly lug nuts. Seems to work perfectly, but I've not much to compare it to. Can anyone tell me if it's normal for the anvil to have some front to back play? Side to side it's pretty secure, but front to back the anvil sometimes comes out of the housing 2-3mm. Just want to make sure this is normal.
There are no manufacturers or tool brands that tell us what to say. You only get the truth from us...and a few mistakes here and there, but we'll own up to those too. Thanks for watching.
I honestly see no use for these. If I need more than a hundred pounds I'm grabbing my half inch drive w7150. Otherwise I use a 3/8 ratchet driver. If you can't get a socket in 3/8 for the hardware that takes that torque, then why would you need that torque in a 3/8 drive? The IR is just better build quality and durability. They don't need to keep coming out with 'the latest thing', they're built to work and last. My 7150 has got to be close to ten years old now and it still runs like new, with the original batteries it came with.
Had t ingersoll rand 5132. t light n t offset was great but it craped out in less than 20 hrs of use. Since it was still under warranty they replaced it for me with t 5133. but i just dont trust t tool . I had t milwaukee 12v stubby. N it craped out to.bout a year ago. N thats why i had bought t IR tool. If u want something to last for a long time just get t makita tools they have never let me down. I just wish makita would make a mid torque 3/8 impact.
Thanks for sharing. That's great info. Can't blame you for trusting Makita, they make some great tools. Yes, we would love to see the XWT17 in a 3/8" as well. Thanks for watching.
The LED light ring could’ve been dirty on the Ingersoll rand or it was not on its brightest setting. The task light feature of that tool can be adjusted to a low med and maximum brightness setting. You throw the forward reverse switch into neutral and press the trigger and it will adjust the brightness settings.
Both are over priced. I do own the m18 Milwaukee 3/8 and the battery wobbles new out of the box.had to shim it with duct tape. For $375 that is ridiculous! But it is very handy otherwise....
I’m exposed to both brand of tools. I find when I use Milwaukie it’s unbalanced and doesn’t feel natural. Milwaukie always feels cheap and nasty compared to say a makita or ir tool.
Dude what’s up with all you guys testing with a socket adapter get the right size socket for the drive impact your using also if you don’t need a deep socket you don’t use it use the depth socket that’s the shortest for the job . If your using a 3/4 drive socket your using the wrong tool for the job smh 🤦♂️
Did you even watch and listen to the video before you made your comment?! I would venture to say, that's a No. In the video, I explain in detail why we're using the socket and adapter that we are. Let me repeat myself for the 12-hundreth time. These are 3/8" drive impact wrenches. The amount of power they deliver requires fasteners that are at least 7/8" in diameter. This means the nuts are 33mm. You can NOT find a 3/8" drive 33mm socket. THEREFORE, we have to use an adapter. To mitigate any torque loss, we have welded the adapter to the socket. We are also using the same socket and adapter for both tools. This makes it perfectly fair. Also, you can tell by the length of the bolts that we require a deep socket. No shallow socket will fit this. Nonetheless, thanks for watching.
@@Shoptoolreviews 33 mm then you would use a 1/2 gun like I said right tool for the job there’s a reason it’s hard to get a 3/8 33 mm don’t ya think??? But the videos are always nice to watch 👍
