Overview

At 5.62 kilograms, close to 12.4 pounds, the Ingersoll 261 sits in heavy duty impact tool territory rather than a compact home model. The listing does not specify drive size or power source beyond that weight figure.

At just over 12 pounds, the 261 is heavier than typical light duty impacts, which usually points to higher torque output and industrial or shop use rather than occasional home repairs. Without a published drive size or power type, buyers should confirm those details match their application before ordering.

Performance notes

Weight is often a rough proxy for torque class in impact tools, and 5.62 kilograms sits well above compact consumer models, suggesting the 261 is built for sustained heavier fastening work. The listing does not confirm drive size, torque rating or power source, so exact output cannot be stated from the data given.
