Overview
The PORTER-CABLE PCC740LA is a 20 volt cordless impact tool weighing 6 pounds. It runs on Porter-Cable's 20V battery platform, though the listing does not include a torque rating.
Porter-Cable's 20V line competes in the crowded cordless impact space, and the PCC740LA sits at 6 pounds, on the heavier side for tools in that class. Without a published torque rating, buyers comparing against other 20V impact tools will need to weigh brand and weight alone.

- Cordless impact design
- Porter-Cable brand
Who it's for
This suits users already invested in Porter-Cable's 20V battery platform who want an impact tool without needing a published torque figure to decide. It is not the pick for buyers who want to compare torque numbers across brands before buying.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- 20 volt cordless power platform
- Part of Porter-Cable's 20V tool lineup
- No torque rating listed
- Heavier than compact 20V impact drivers
- Battery and charger inclusion not stated
Performance notes
Running on the 20 volt platform, the PCC740LA weighs 6 pounds, heavier than many compact impact drivers in the same voltage class, which can suggest a bulkier motor or gearbox. The listing stops short of a torque figure, so its output relative to lighter competitors is not confirmed by the spec sheet.
