Frequently Asked Questions

How does this compare to cordless impact wrenches?

This pneumatic impact wrench provides consistent power output without battery fade, making it ideal for high-volume work. While cordless tools offer portability, air-powered tools like the 216B deliver superior power-to-weight ratios and unlimited runtime when connected to a compressor.

What size compressor do I need for this impact wrench?

You'll need a compressor that can supply at least 19 CFM at 90 PSI for continuous heavy-duty use. For intermittent use, a smaller compressor with a good-sized tank will work fine, as the tool only averages 3 CFM during typical operation.

Is this suitable for lug nuts and wheel work?

Yes, the 200 ft-lbs maximum torque handles most automotive lug nuts effectively. However, for heavy truck work or extremely tight fasteners, you might want to consider a 1/2-inch drive impact wrench for maximum torque capability.

What makes the 216B different from other 3/8 drive air impact wrenches?

The 216B features Ingersoll Rand's proven ball-and-cam mechanism that prevents stalling under load, plus a straight-grip design that's specifically engineered for tight space access. The aluminum construction provides professional durability at a surprisingly light 2.8-pound weight.
