Overview
DeWalt fits a brushless motor into a compact cordless impact wrench with a large square drive for automotive fasteners. A glass-filled nylon housing resists shop chemicals, and an LED ring lights the work.
Its compact size reaches hard-to-reach spots in automotive work, and the breakaway force handles stuck fasteners. It ships as a bare tool, so a battery and charger are separate purchases.
Who it's for
DIY mechanics and auto techs already on DeWalt's compact battery platform get a light wrench for fasteners in tight spots. Owners without those batteries need to buy a pack and charger first.
Pros and cons
- Compact for tight spaces
- Strong breakaway torque for stuck bolts
- LED ring lighting
- Belt hook included
- Battery and charger not included
- Speed settings not listed
Performance notes
The brushless motor drives the impact mechanism, with breakaway torque higher than tightening torque for loosening stuck bolts. Compact length lets it reach into confined spaces, and the LED ring lights the fastener in low light. The glass-filled nylon housing resists harsh automotive chemicals and solvents.
