Customer Reviews for Bosch 18 Volt Lithium-Ion Cordless Electric 1/2 in. High Torque Impact Wrench with Friction Ring Kit and Hard Case

Used this to work on my vehicle, made the Job easy.....removed lug bolts with no problem, and was able to place shocks, struts and new coil springs with little difficulty. Great tool

I haven't used it much but I can notice its a great tool

Excellent tool........... ......... .. .......

I never thought I would own an impact wrench, especially a battery operated one. This tool is out almost every time I am working on a vehicle and I absolutely love it. From 30 mm fasteners to large pullers and separators, this tool always has the power to do the work. This tool is definitely power hungry and it shows in it's performance. So be sure to use higher capacity Fat-Pack batteries with this tool. Great tool and and the best part is I do not need an air-compressor to use the impact.

It's strong enough to damage stuff. More power than I need for changing truck tires. My favorite feature is actually how slow you can spin the chuck... it makes it easy to go around the wheel and apply even torque... but use a torque wrench after you get it snug because this thing will snap studs easily. Assembled in USA! Wish it all was.

It really don't get any better then this! I use this impact to set up pumping towers for different railroads for the last two years. It's out lasted two other major brands hands down. It's a work horse. We outfitted the whole fleet & shop with Bosch power tools because of it's dependability and long battery life for the job. I've never had to send a tool back for repair!

My crews use this tool to bore hole in wood power poles and it works great . It don't heat up the bit like the hyd. drills.

This torque wrench is professional quality. It has no problem with F550 lug nuts . I also use it on my wood chipper bolts at 210 ft lb no problem. Very happy with performance 

I have the older model ,21618 love it ,use it to change out my tires, on 3 vehicles, works awesome.

Use to remove lug nuts when rotating and changing tires/wheels spring and fall. Has more power than 120 volt impact wrench I was using. No need for power cords or air hose and compressor.

I bought this product after buying a 1/4" impact and drill combo so that my batteries would interchange. It would be nice to include a little rubber or poly urethane boot to protect the nose of the impact. I'm not sure how they achieved anywhere near 500ft lbs with this tool, because I can't even achieve over 150 with it, but I knew going in that the number was too high to be true. As for the battery, Really poor design on the locking mechanism. I've already had one fail and lock the battery on the tool where I could not release and remove it without a huge fight. The pin that hold the latch is made from weak plastic. Once it breaks, the fight begins. When you push the red button to release it, you'll incur sympathetic movement from the mechanism enough to prevent full release of the latch. The cure for me was to drill out the entire latch where the plastic rod goes and insert a metal rod in its place. I don't understand why I'm the one that has to engineer this stuff properly after paying such good money.
