  • Great product!
Style: Standard Anvil
I have used all brands of impact guns. I just recently decided to give Aircat brand a try, Awesome! My last two impacts were Ingersoll Rands… Garbage! Ingersoll has went downhill quickly. I will be buying more Aircat products as required… So far, so good…durable and powerful! CON: The reverse lever is plastic and lite…..seems like Aircat could have put a little bit more engineering it to it….alll in all a good product for the price. ... show more

  • Better than matco
Style: Standard Anvil
The gun is very ergonomic and it’s easy to put it from forward and reverse as well as it’s very quiet and light weight and small but very powerful definitely recommend for the price. I use it everyday and never have a problem taking off lugs it’s so good that people who own Matco air guns often ask to borrow mine. ... show more

  • The bar has been raised by Aircat
Style: Standard Anvil
Love love love Aircat products. I am a professional auto tech and use this gun daily. It is amazingly quiet and deceptively powerful. The antivibration makes it seem like it is not as strong as some guns like the IR Titanium series, but make no mistake, it will do anything that IR will do and more. It also has one of the best triggers I have ever used. I am able to feather the plastic GM lug covers on without stripping them, yet has more than enough power to bust rusty chassis bolts free in an instant. Can't say enough good about Aircat. I own several of their tools and use them in a professional environment, they are tough and reliable. This gun is so smooth and strong that I can't even articulate what Alice tool it is. ... show more

  • I like it.
Style: Standard Anvil
The media could not be loaded. This air impact is rated 1300 ft lbs. I'm not sure if it really produce that much torque or not, but definitely more than enough for automotive repair use. It's very light which is very beneficial if you use it for long period of time. It is very simple, just reverse and forward. The trigger is a little firm, this may be a downside for some people. I'm just used to it now. It's relatively small for this much torque impact gun. ... show more

  • Best one I have ever used
Style: 2-Inch Extended Anvil
Torque is excellent, have used at a tire a tire shop for 1 year so far and still runs great. I can take semi lug nuts off about 90% of the time. Light weight especially with strength it provides. Very easy to use.

  • Powerful and reasonablly priced.
Style: Standard Anvil
Bought this to replace a cheaper and far less powerful air impact. Seems solid, quiet, and strong.

  • Amazing Customer Service!
Style: Standard Anvil
Fantastic customer service! The first impact wrench I recieved was very weak in reverse. It struggled with over tightened lugs. I expressed my concern to aircat and they had a new impact wrench at my doorstep in 2 days. The new wrench is fonominal. Great breakaway torque. I would highly recommend this impact wrench and aircat in general ... show more
