Milwaukee Impact Wrench vs M18 Fuel Impact Driver | TESTED!

Impact wrench vs impact driver - which one is better? Which one is best for you? We've got both of Milwaukee's flagship impact tools; the 2953 M18 Fuel Impact Driver and the 2962 M18 Fuel Milwaukee Impact Wrench and we're testing them head to head. Using both the standard M18 batteries and the all new Forge High Output packs, we run both of these tools through a series of fastening, driving, and breakaway torque tests to see which impact tool comes out on top.

I like watching these tests, but to be honest, I think just about any of the big three, along with a few others, can get the job done. The question is, how long does the device last? Great video.

No doubt about it! For most content creators, the durability and longevity test has been a tough nut to crack (at least in an honest, scientific, and objective way) but we're open to ideas!

Alot of work i see in these videos like cabinets, installing juction boxes, electrical etc can easily be done with a m12 impact driver so why carry a much larger tool around.The only time i use anything bigger than a m12 is with large tapcons. But i guess its different here in the Bahamas because the longest fastner we use is maybe a 4 inch screw. We rarely use timberlocks or lags. So its much more convenient to have a m12.

Which is better? They’re for two different purposes.You wouldn’t use a 1/4” hex driver to spin lug nuts off.

[@aaron6822]

why does the log bolt loot completely worn out after driving? its almost round

great video

The driver can break nuts torqued to 550 ft-lbs

500 foot pound, I mean that means it;l safely tighten up a car tire with enough tightness…. 500 founds that’s a lot.

A car wheel

@@dougr3715 correct?

I need a 12v screwdriver. Milwaukee or Dewalt? It will be my first 12v tool

[@jronmanbuilds]

Look at the multi chuck drivers from either brand. Those might be what you are looking for.

[@Fly2kill1]

@@jronmanbuildsthat’s what I’ve been looking at. Add in the Bosch brushless. I don’t know how I feel about the handle of the M12 one.

[@HDMIxCHIEFS]

Milwaukee for sure. I was on the same boat a year ago, and as a DIY homeowner there has not been a single project I haven't been able to complete with the M12 Surge. I even built my entire backyard privacy fence with that 12v driver. Milwaukee is leagues ahead of anyone else for their 12v lineup. Not only their drill and drivers, but so many of their other tools are worth it as well.

[@Fly2kill1]

@@HDMIxCHIEFSI have a spread of Kobalt 24v tools. I need something softer for building RC cars. The M12 soldering iron will be acquired as well.

[@jronmanbuilds]

​@@Fly2kill1 the only way to know for sure about the C style handle is to try it out. I picked up the m12 installation driver shortly after it launched. I had never used a "C style" drill before (unless you count drywall guns). I hardly ever pull out my "T style" drills anymore. I find the way you hold the m12 installation driver to be my preferred option now. I picked up the new CXS 18 from Festool earlier this year which is also a C style drill.
