Frequently Asked Questions

Which 3/8 drive air impact wrench is best for automotive work?

This Ingersoll Rand 3/8 drive air impact wrench is ideal for automotive applications with its 150 ft-lbs torque rating, compact 6.6-inch length, and lightweight 2.8-pound design. It handles most passenger vehicle maintenance while fitting into tight engine compartments.

What size air compressor do I need for this 3/8 drive impact wrench?
