Rigid and Hercules were the obvious winners. I didn't think the other two could finish their jobs until they finally did. I've seen a few Hercules videos and all have been glowing reviews for HF and what they produced this time. Great work.

@@VCGConstruction I've only gotten to use it once It worked well changing over studded winter tires off of two Scion XB's. It was surprisingly heavy though. Bought it cause I needed a couple of ridgid batteries and figured that if I did this route it might keep me from buying Dewalts new beasts. I know I could have taken the lugnuts off with my DCF 923 but I wanted to try the ridgid.

@0nfir34h1m 2 ай бұрын

"But nusting torque" lol. Also, something important to keep in mind is that if you set torque for a nut/screw to a certain amount, it will inherently take less than that to remove the fastener. Case in point, torque spec for gas key screws on an AR-15 bolt carrier is 50 inch pounds. When testing if the key screws are torqued to the correct spec by attempting to loosen the screws, more than 25 inch pounds is considered a destructive test.

@0nfir34h1m 2 ай бұрын

Follow up to this. Torque test channel proved that any adapter for a socket reduces the amount of torque applied to the fastener by an impact wrench
