Amazon's Best High Torque Impact Wrench vs Milwaukee

[@Kingsoupturbo]

I imagine that long suffering engineer at Worx, long forced to make weak budget tools, finally given permission to make something actually good, a victory for consumers and budget tool designers!

[@alexmills1329]

Years of value engineering forced to gimp designs down to bottom dollar build costs, it must feel freeing to have less constrained objectives for a project finally.

[@bstamand1985]

We use worx drivers in high product furniture assembly. They never let us down.

[@Kingsoupturbo]

@@bstamand1985 Interesting! perhaps higher quality then I"m aware of, a brand to put on my radar now.

[@bstamand1985]

@Kingsoupturbo yea our ceo is as cheap as they come so we were limited on what brand. So we bought 3 2in1 drivers and one regular drill driver. They've all lasted 8 months without issues. 10 hours a day.

[@etherealrose2139]

I suspect the worx uses an energy management chip that ramps up the current to the motor and therefore neuters below a certain battery, on purpose, to protect the battery/tool. Hence the spool up on a DC motor... the mass can get there almost as fast as they want, the power is definitely being metered, which is interesting.

[@sage5296]

perhaps that helps to make the battery last longer if you're doing lots of small stuff

I spent the day throwing up since 3am to the point of dehydration, and just got home after being discharged from the ER... Seeing a new TTC video in my feed after getting home is a much appreciated blessing. Especially on high torque impacts.

I could totally see the Avid Power as something that just never leaves my small home garage where we mostly break down parts cars to support our racing habit. You don't need finesse but you often need a 36" wobble extension with an 18mm deep on it for those top bellhousing bolts (yes, both FWD and RWD this seems all to common). A single battery would not matter either as you have the daily driver impact right there you use for you personal car that uses the color you chose 22 years ago before it was lime green.

[@accordv6er]

Ah yes, the bellhousing bolt assault weapon

[@tylersmith7054]

A group of friends built a race car at a buddies house who had the space but not the tools. I had the opposite. I ended up buying a used Mac high torque off Marketplace to leave at his place since he had a DEWALT drill kit. If this had existed then I would have bought it.

[@michaelkrenzer3296]

@@tylersmith7054 Honest, the highly maligned Ryobi brushed 1/2" impacts still serve yoemans duty in builds, at the track and for Pick-n-Pull excursions.

That heavy hitting works it's going to really do an awesome job in the field. Cuz when it comes to true breakaway you have to be able to move the bolt at least in my new amount with every hit so the heavier hitting an impact the more you're going to be able to remove.

I recently bought the Eworks 3/4 impact based on your testing and am VERY pleased with it. Nothing I've thrown at it stops it. Main bearing bolts on a Detroit Series 60 and lugs on a semi truck both came right off and for the price I wouldn't trade it for any high cost gun.

[@nathanwest2304]

I really think a "force per impact" score would be helpful to compare tools especially something like the worx might have a high force for each impact which might be great for busting some tight nuts or even crankshaft bolts

[@stug77]

Hey just had a big brain thought, not related to this video but idk how far back you read comments. They make adjustable box wrenches. If you cranked one of those down super tight on the nut do you think it would achieve more torque than a quality 6-point box wrench (or spline) before rounding the nut? Could it be used instead of a spline to remove partially rounded nuts? What if you were to also cut serrations into the "jaws". The Craftsman ones that are most popular it seems have a knurled knob for adjustment, what if you modified it for a bit more leverage and really got some gripping force on that nut.

[@calvertschmued2920]

Would love to see you guys put a more powerful brushless motor into the Worx just for fun. Also curious how the drill to impact adapter your guys were designing is going?

Pretty impressive for Worx, I snagged a new Hercules ultra torque (1400ft model) shortly after the spring black Friday event this year. It was either $94 or $110 but either way a killer deal still with warranty for 5 years, especially since I already had the batteries & chargers. I wonder where that would fall in the chart at that price. For a weekend only use (more like 1x a month) I've been super happy with the Hercules offerings, thank you to this channel and the 1/4 driver review a few years back.

[@enlightenCA]

I just can't justify paying over $150 for an impact, maybe if I was breaking loose extremely tight hardware daily but for my purposes I am fine with using a breaker bar in the rare case that my 150ftlb driver cant handle it. And as far as working on passenger vehicles 9 times out of 10 if it wont break loose with the 150ftlb driver its likely going to break off the fastener anyway and at least when breaking loose the fastener by hand I can have a feel for when the stud/bolt is going to snap. If I just went full beans with a 750ftlb driver I would probably spend most of my time drilling and tapping. I do like that one smart Milwaukee that allows you to set the torque at different specs. Maybe when the price of that one goes down or if Amazon comes out with a viable knockoff I will purchase one of those. Love the channel! Can't wait to buy some merch on the next drop.

Please remember that hammer mass doesn’t TECHNICALLY matter. Moment of inertia is truly what makes the difference so a lighter hammer with its mass held further from the axis of rotation could overall hit harder. Mass measurements are probably a good proxy for MoI in most cases, but not always. Would be SWEET if you got a test rig to better explain what going on under the hood!

[@TorqueTestChannel]

True, but among tools with a similar diameter head it's about mass and speed, speed being peak hammer speed which is a function of spring size and motor. If the tools were dramatically different in hammer diameter, that would be a larger piece of the puzzle. Like the DCF961

[@RetiredEE]

Love these videos. Big fan. I’m a mechanical engineering student and I have a suggestion for the channel in terms of setup. I think that it might be possible to quantify the wrist breaking score empirically. It might be possible to attach an accelerometer to the impact wrench or possibly the tester’s hand with a strap. You can use the acceleration data to determine the force experienced at that point. I suspect it’s the rate of change of acceleration, jerk, that would match up best with your wrist breaking score. Since the jerk would be positive and negative, you could square the values across the board and take the area under the curve across the time of the test. It wouldn’t be an accurate measurement of force at the wrist, but would probably give a good impression of the differences between the tools.
