Amazon's Best High Torque Impact Wrench vs Milwaukee 

I imagine that long suffering engineer at Worx, long forced to make weak budget tools, finally given permission to make something actually good, a victory for consumers and budget tool designers!

In a world teetering on irreversible chaos, TTC is a calming island of stability. For a few brief minutes, all is right in the world 🙂

Fridays at work always are complete with TCC uploads!

I suspect the worx uses an energy management chip that ramps up the current to the motor and therefore neuters below a certain battery, on purpose, to protect the battery/tool. Hence the spool up on a DC motor... the mass can get there almost as fast as they want, the power is definitely being metered, which is interesting.

I spent the day throwing up since 3am to the point of dehydration, and just got home after being discharged from the ER... Seeing a new TTC video in my feed after getting home is a much appreciated blessing. Especially on high torque impacts.

My favourite videos are the ones where you test cheap stuff.

I could totally see the Avid Power as something that just never leaves my small home garage where we mostly break down parts cars to support our racing habit. You don't need finesse but you often need a 36" wobble extension with an 18mm deep on it for those top bellhousing bolts (yes, both FWD and RWD this seems all to common). A single battery would not matter either as you have the daily driver impact right there you use for you personal car that uses the color you chose 22 years ago before it was lime green.

I don't get how Positec manages to stay in business with how universally mismanaged their tool lines are.

You should test more of Worx stuff

Thanks, been waiting for worx for a while. Now onto Masterforce!

I had a dead trigger assy in my Milwaukee, and ended up finding a replacement (on Ali) advertised as being from a Worx. Milwaukee would only sell the trigger with the entire control PCB - meaning the one part was as much as the whole tool.

I'd like to see how many beans the worx would make on a 20 second run. I know it's not a standard test but it seems like that one like a little more time to shine.

Absolutely love this channel

You Should Test The 3017-20 Milwaukee Blower and the DCBL777B Blower Thanks For All You Do Its Great!!

Thank yall for every video you have made to date

Now imagine the Worx with a bigger, badder motor...hmm...could be the foundation for a new crazy impact monstrosity!

I'd like to see reliability tests, to see if something breaks or melts with repeated use.

Love the videos. Always informative and yet funny with the comments. If you could, can you use more Hart tools. Thank You

Thx keep being Awesome TTC!

I feel like you guys would make awesome firearms breakdown videos.

I recently bought the Eworks 3/4 impact based on your testing and am VERY pleased with it. Nothing I've thrown at it stops it. Main bearing bolts on a Detroit Series 60 and lugs on a semi truck both came right off and for the price I wouldn't trade it for any high cost gun.

I would love to see some testing on the rigid exp line of batteries

Can you test a little lineup of these tiny, commonly like 12v, impact drivers? For wrenching on a bike I could see them being useful

The battery going in backwards actually makes more sense!

finally! Worx on the rig.

Love these videos. Big fan. I’m a mechanical engineering student and I have a suggestion for the channel in terms of setup. I think that it might be possible to quantify the wrist breaking score empirically. It might be possible to attach an accelerometer to the impact wrench or possibly the tester’s hand with a strap. You can use the acceleration data to determine the force experienced at that point. I suspect it’s the rate of change of acceleration, jerk, that would match up best with your wrist breaking score. Since the jerk would be positive and negative, you could square the values across the board and take the area under the curve across the time of the test. It wouldn’t be an accurate measurement of force at the wrist, but would probably give a good impression of the differences between the tools.

Very good, thank you!

U guys should do the right angle impacts again and put the m18 adapter on the Milwaukee

Oh dang, forgot for a second it’s Friday

Great video! I always want to see how the inside looks like, keep up the teardown part in these videos👍👍 Keep testing mid/off brands tools, those are the Best!

I’ve been watching this channel since the start. But I really would like to see an untimed test on each one of the impacts tested to see what they may be capable of.

Also like to see cats new stuff used there hammer drill and was impressed they come so far so fast

Pretty impressive for Worx, I snagged a new Hercules ultra torque (1400ft model) shortly after the spring black Friday event this year. It was either $94 or $110 but either way a killer deal still with warranty for 5 years, especially since I already had the batteries & chargers. I wonder where that would fall in the chart at that price. For a weekend only use (more like 1x a month) I've been super happy with the Hercules offerings, thank you to this channel and the 1/4 driver review a few years back. Now have the driver, mid torque and high torque. wrenches.

TTC makes me look forward to Fridays !

TTC. LET'S GO 🏁

Would love to see you guys put a more powerful brushless motor into the Worx just for fun. Also curious how the drill to impact adapter your guys were designing is going?

Thanks

I can't wait to join the Torque Testes

I would never buy these off brands unless it was a one time contract job, maybe. Warranty and customer support is more important to me so I stick with Makita.

I really think a "force per impact" score would be helpful to compare tools especially something like the worx might have a high force for each impact which might be great for busting some tight nuts or even crankshaft bolts

Please test the difference in power with an impact wrench with an extended anvil vs a normal anvil with an extension adaptor

when do you test that seesii? i remember u test just the smaller one that perform good.

It wouod be so cool if you guys tested the Klein high torque, it's compatible with dewalt batteriee so a lot of beans is possible

Can you guys test all of the different e-work branded power tools? I am very interested to see if they have a solid assortment of quality and high-performing tools.

Love ya ttc have good weekend bro.

When you going to test the new Hilti SIW 10-22?

Is that a future spoiler at 10:11? Cause it's not on the live spreadsheet right now

Thank you. My first purchase of impact. The Avid High torque is my choice. Can't beat that price.

Would you please consider including the Ryobi brand?

Could you try a Maximum 40v 1/2 impact from Canadian tire ?

​@TorqueTestChannel Could you set up a jig to see how much torque is gained if the impact if rigidly mounted compared to being held in the hand?

Could you test the new matco raptor impact

I’d love to see a review of some of the Klein power tools. Are they just rebadged dewalts or are they actually a different tool that just takes dewalt batteries.

Have you tested the Seesii wh710??

Still would like to see testing of E-draulics and M28 Milwaukee batteries.

Please remember that hammer mass doesn’t TECHNICALLY matter. Moment of inertia is truly what makes the difference so a lighter hammer with its mass held further from the axis of rotation could overall hit harder. Mass measurements are probably a good proxy for MoI in most cases, but not always. Would be SWEET if you got a test rig to better explain what going on under the hood!

2 surprises for sure! Avid Power showing some true Power and Worx going to Work. Thanks for sharing!

Can you put adjustable wrenches on your list to test?

The Avid Power looks like good bang for the buck, but how reliable/durable is it on the long haul?

So every time I'm on the SP Tools truck I see a 3/8" impact I've been debating getting just because of the size. It's the SP-7146EXS. Any chance you guys have seen it too?

For $420 aud thats not bad. It is a bit steep for worx though, maybe even too close to the other brands which everyone already owns

Hey just had a big brain thought, not related to this video but idk how far back you read comments. They make adjustable box wrenches. If you cranked one of those down super tight on the nut do you think it would achieve more torque than a quality 6-point box wrench (or spline) before rounding the nut? Could it be used instead of a spline to remove partially rounded nuts? What if you were to also cut serrations into the "jaws". The Craftsman ones that are most popular it seems have a knurled knob for adjustment, what if you modified it for a bit more leverage and really got some gripping force on that nut.

could you maybe do some south east asian brands on how they are compared to these US brands? Ingco is quickly becoming the tool brand in SEA and it would be nice to see actually how good they are

Test the new Milwaukee vs dcf961

Test the skil ratchets!

Would you be able to do a video on grease guns? Project Farm did a video a few years ago but didn't have any cheap amazon brands. I was wondering if the cheap ones are worth it, I need to buy one for work soon or I'll look like Popeye from squeezing the pistol grip so often.

I just can't justify paying over $150 for an impact, maybe if I was breaking loose extremely tight hardware daily but for my purposes I am fine with using a breaker bar in the rare case that my 150ftlb driver cant handle it. And as far as working on passenger vehicles 9 times out of 10 if it wont break loose with the 150ftlb driver its likely going to break off the fastener anyway and at least when breaking loose the fastener by hand I can have a feel for when the stud/bolt is going to snap. If I just went full beans with a 750ftlb driver I would probably spend most of my time drilling and tapping. I do like that one smart Milwaukee that allows you to set the torque at different specs. Maybe when the price of that one goes down or if Amazon comes out with a viable knockoff I will purchase one of those. Love the channel! Can't wait to buy some merch on the next drop.

Does an impact wrench apply more maximum torque to a larger nut since the leverage length (points of the nut) are further from the center of the fastener? Can we test this?

Just a heads up I'm sure you guys have noticed RU-vid doesn't play your full intro, pretty much cuts off the whole thing. Don't know if that's on purpose....

There´s a new 18v Bosch in town, (1600/2200nm) maybe you can try it out? I´m curious about that one. :)

Those heavy hammers got me thinking...how long before someone finds a way to put lead shot in the rotating assembly to get a dead blow effect? Hiw do we think that would perform?

Does the avid power share any battery platform??

from what I've seen in other reviews Worx tools have been quite underwhelming while not exactly cheap. This Impact Wrench seems redeeming, now Worx needs to fix the battery incompatibility as some owners won't do with a single 5Ah. PS. Bosch just updated its 3/4" impact wrench with some interesting numbers. It would be nice to see how it stacks up against the big boys

That worx gun looks strikingly similar to the makita xwt08. Even has the forward facing bolts

My only concern with all these impact wrenches is on the reliability and the warranty a few months down the road. Is the TTC planning on testing handtools in the future?

I immediately thought avid power was just bauer when i first saw

Like to see some die hard power tools and other from the likes of advance auto, auto zone , and o Rileys r the big three In the south

Anything on the Ridgid 3/4

The worx was still climbing fast.

Been watching you since the near beginning. Still have not seen a SKIL on here if I remember.

Can we get a Torque Testes shirt? Maybe Torque Testees?

Are you gonna start hot rodding the Worx or is the battery limitation going to be a driving problem?

possibly the fastest i’ve clicked on a video in quite a while

Think that's smart of works to put battery on backwards because Milwaukees batteries fall off in that direction when in use after heavy use and I think there on to something because front end is getting most of the vibrations due to socket begin on front

PLEASE test Parkside performance tools They make big powerful drills and impacts and are extremely common in Europe They also have 8AH 21700 batteries for 60€

Avid Power resembles the Bauer

torque testy for life

Hi TTC could you test the seesii wh800 its rated at 1300nm

Interesting that even after milwaukee puts out a new latest and greatest 2967, that a lot of the bargain companies are still competing with the 2767. To me that'd be like if Kia in the early 2000's had specifically decided to make a car to go toe to toe with the ford escort after they started selling the focus.

Gotta hotrod that Worx with that big ole hammer

When are you guys gonna test the Skil 20v impact?

Can you test the new Bosch GDS 18v-400. It claims 400nm and 600 breakaway torque

Nuts.

Torque “testis” 😂😂😂😂😂❤

"She rides reverse" 🤣 Wait a sec, I was all on board until you called me a "Torque Testes" !!!

clearly the worx only working with its own battery is worth it!

Works nitro looks like a rebranded makita with upgraded parts

Moowaukee?

HEY TEST TORQUE CHANNEL OWNERS... Northen Tool offers 20V power tool line now! Start testing theor stuff as well.

I have a snap on MG1200 with a 3/4 in anvil that I would send you to test if you are interested it’s fresh off a rebuild
