LET'S SETTLE THIS! Is Mac Cordless Just DeWalt for More $$?

[@TorqueTestChannel]

One thing we probably didn't point out enough is the grease & oil resistance Mac uses on these two impacts and their Mac branded batteries vs the DeWalts, which DeWalt is starting to roll out now as well. But either way, SBD continues to pretty accurately rate their impacts compared to most on this channel, in this case even between brands rating the high torques the same - which should have nipped this debate in the bud, but salesmen will be salesmen! Torque of TTC is working in product development 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!

Warranty plays a big part in cost. Mac has a 3 year full coverage warranty. Dewalt has a 3 year limited warranty.

The newer Snap On 1/2” battery impact is by far the strongest impact I’ve ever used. My buddy could tighten bolts that my Milwaukee 2760 could not bust loose and then he would break them loose in 1/2 second of impacting. It was far stronger than my Snappy 850 air, the aircat high torque air impacts, and the Ingersoll 1/2 air impacts. Maybe Thor is better, but I’ve never used a stronger impact than the newer SO electric 1/2”. Absolutely a beast, but still too expensive. I think the kit is $900.

The DCF894/MCF894 Have the exact same parts except for housings and anvil. Simple look up the parts break downs. The dcf899/bwp153 have different parts except for the impactor. This marketing concept is not new. Years ago "Black and Decker" (ya know before DeWalt?) sold the I believe 2750 grinder. At the same time it was marketed as a Black and Decker, DeWalt, Craftsman and SnapOn. The "ONLY" difference was the housings colors (chrome head for the SnapOn). The pricing was all over the board from roughly $59.00 to $225.00! The guys that got them out of the SnapOn van were all sorts of butt hurt when you informed them that the grinders had the exact part numbers and they just paid an extra $125. for a chrome housing! And yes the "yellow" DeWalt color is the worst in the industry for a mechanic to keep clean!!

[@garyradtke3252]

This is weird. I was just thinking about the reduction of torque to the bolt by allowing the impact to bounce around when you made the statement about how holding the impact can change the reading by 20-30 Ftlbs. I have used the technique of holding the body of the tool tightly to prevent the loss of torque from bouncing. It can help if the fastener is on the edge of loosening. Also, tightening slightly can help break loose a fastener stuck from corrosion but be careful.

[@LKN117]

Its not so much vibration as it is a binding affect on the internals of the gun if things aren't held perfectly level with the fastener. I own many pneumatic and pixie powered impacts from different brands (I have a tool buying problem) and all of them have that problem to some degree. The electrics seem to be affected the worst but I have two pneumatic guns that wont even start if they are not level enough with the fastener.

We got a DeWalt mid torque 1/2" impact for a fixture in the shop I work at, and it will stop moving the nut completely until you angle it a certain way, then you get that extra half turn lol. Even brand new, it sounded like it was gonna blow up any second.

[@forgottencameras]

This is what I was thinking too. I think it is a combination binning and loose quality control, since it seems pretty inconsistent among even the same tools. I'd like to see tests of 5 or 10 of the same tool from different manufacturers to know who has the best QC tolerances.

[@Yamatool]

The thing for me about Mac vs DeWalt doesn't really have to do with performance it's to do with support. If I have an issue or something I don't have to leave work with a Mac. I text my dealer she comes by as soon as I need her and I got a replacement or repair in my hands when I need it. With a DeWalt I have to wait till work is done and spend my time to drive to the store and deal with the warranty there and I gotta spend my time to register it too. And then I might have to wait for a repair and then go back to the store at a later meanwhile my tool is gone or I was forced to buy more batteries. My time is worth the difference In price to me aswell as the convenience.

[@Yamatool]

What? Dewalts are very comparably priced to Mac tools. Depending on what it's the same price. If you compare XR tools to bl spec they are the same price from what I've seen. It's about 300$ after tax for a Mac bl spec hex driver kit and it's @about 300$ for a DeWalt XR hex driver

I own several of the Mac 3\8" impacts as well as several DeWalt drills and drivers. The big difference I've found is durability.

[@randysmith9636]

Personally I was pretty impressed with the Mac. But is it worth the extra money? Of course not, nobody working outside of a shop would go onto the truck to buy it. So other than having the convenience of a truck come to you each week, which is definitely a convenience, why buy it from them? Credit, same as any of the hand tools. Probably 90% of mechanics have a running account on at least one truck, many on multiple trucks. When I need a tool to perform my job I can walk onto the truck and depending on your relationship with the truck owner I can walk off without having to open my wallet at that time. At the very least I can put down a much smaller amount than what it actually costs. Personally I do not own any truck brand tools but I do understand why they are there. Value, service and convenience is measured in different ways. A good truck owner can help you to be able to do your job better with providing quality tools and helping to ease the opening of your wallet at that time.

[@Klokopf52]

In my experience most current Gen and even the last gen models impacts suffer from the problem of loosing power rather quickly over time. Even on new batteries. My uncle returned his Dewalt Impact driver (not sure which exact model) after 6 months of admittedly above average use because it was no longer able to drive those big wood screws you use for making roofs. They did replaced it, so no problems there, but the guy on the counter said they all have the same problem, all the brands they carry actually crap out under hard use way within the warranty period (This being Europe is at least 2 Years). They all seem to go for the "better replace tools on heavy users and make our money of the 95% who don't actually use them that often" approach. Even Hilti is guilty of doing that to some degree with the batteries. They sell you a warranty they now is going to include a replacement. Still cheaper than buying a second battery i would assume.

[@hoganlex1]

I bet they can pretty easily change the forward and reverse bias of the tool. Also, as you say in your pinned comment, the plastics are better on the mac tools when it comes to an auto envrionment.

You should try the 9, 12, or 15 Amp/Hr DeWalt FlexVolt batteries; in my experience these can make quite a difference as they too have 21700 cells but with three groups of 5 cells in parallel compared to two groups of 5. More cell groups in parallel means either less amps/battery for the same wattage or in my experience more available wattage as it offers another 1/3 of amp hours over the dual layer batteries. While DeWalt makes 2 lines of tools a FlexVolt Advantage as well as a Power Select line, depending on location purchased from, both are nearly identical regarding being able to take advantage of larger and/or more powerful battery packs. While the tri-packs add more weight I’ve switch near exclusively to them in some tools as the power boost is quite good.

I love these rebranding coming out videos! And it happens all over the place. I guess the Mac's 'grease & oil resistance' only matters in industries with pretty aggressive chemicals coming into contact with the tool? In my experience most of the usual plastics are perfectly durable. 🤔

[@RondeLeeuw]

@@CPthetooladdictI hear you. But in this case it seems the DeWalt is a good alternative. 😮

[@8power0]

I LIKE WHERE YOU'RE GOING WITH YOUR TESTING,,, GOOD JOB !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@360joseph360]

Tool trucks, finally.

I’m having trouble trying to find a Milwaukee 2763 torque test. Have u done one? Also the old school brushed Milwaukee (not around it to get model sry)

[@atlantajunglepythons1744]

So what do they pull in the 1/4?! But really, I'd like to see you in a Clamp and hold each tool. Something-something, er, something-something....

I have been beating on my 2016 Mac since new I work on heavy equipment in northern canada so it just lives in agony. The biggest problem with mine is that it can't handle the cold.

My brother works for dewalt (stanley black and decker), he told me that they built dewalt and crafstman at the same factory in mexico. He said that they share 100% all the same components, but the crafstman uses a weaker tune, and the dewalt uses a different tune to outperform the crafstman. Then he said that they also run dewalt and mac tools at the same factory in the usa. They are the same, but the housing and tune is different.

Any chance of testing the Snap-On 1/2" (CT9080) and 3/4"(CT9100)brushless impacts?

It’s important that you use the same Milla amp hour batteries. Higher Milla amp about batteries have more cells and can deliver a little bit more current at the same voltage. So a 6mah should put perform a 2mah on the same tool. I haven’t seen all your videos, so maybe you covered this?

[@benhunt130]

The mactools gun is designed for the garage environment. The outer shell is made of a different material more suitable for garage use. Its also more protected in a drop test. This is not a construction tool like the dewalt . The dewalt is a global brand for construction. Do confuse the two.

[@uninhabitedspace]

I want to know if Mac is releasing a new high torque and mid torque like Dewalt has with the dcf900 & dcf891.

[@sukhwang4554]

MAC is no compare to Snap on in terms of real job site performance. In my opinion Autel for scanner, makita has great automotive impact wrench, milwaukee surge is great impact driver, snap on long neck is the best power ratchet. I only find MAC tool useful bc truck guy is very nice and lots of discount is offered.

[@Isaiah-ft5nx]

$2500?!? 😂 my DCF899 was only $220! I’ll just buy 10 DeWalts instead!

[@JBPlaysGames1]

I recently learned from some videos and other sources that Dewalt tools will accept Bauer brand batteries from Harbor Freight. Would definitely be interested to see a test what kind of power and such can be made comparing an official Dewalt battery to a Bauer on these 2 impacts. Would definitely be some handy info for someone considering saving a few bucks on new batteries and not wanting to buy super sketchy knockoffs.

[@bird718]

i wonder what that klein BAT20-7161 impact is like compared to the dewalt, mac and craftsman

[@denisrhodes54]

i bought the MAC high torque boot from the tool truck, and the dewalt high torque impact from the farm store. they had a special, buy bare tool, get a 5ah battery free.

[@troy3052]

Thanks again for the knowledge

[@nathanwest2304]

can anyone help me with a milwaukee impact losing torque? it's rated at twice the torque compared to a hitachi and it's almost twice the size and weight, but it only does slightly more torque in practical use

[@AlexRamstack]

Can you guys do a vid explaining the difference between nut busting torque and fastening torque?

[@its_shadeo7758]

The craftsman mid torque is the same as the dewalt, craftsman’s the same as dewalt look at their 3/8 impact and the brushless 1/4 impacts

[@christophermcmichael880]

Mac and Snap on charge so much for their tools in case one fails you had already bought the free replacement tool. So basically, you're not getting your replacement for free. lol

[@daveunknown01]

Will you test the ACDelco impact?

[@MFEeee]

I wouldn’t run these guns with higher battery packs. You’ll wear the motors down faster
