So this is it, our updated impact driver comparison test of the big players in the arena. We first published this video on 9th February 2018 but decided to extend the testing after your feedback so here is the original video with a few extra bits.
Watch Roger Bisby take drivers from Bosch, Dewalt, Hitachi, Hilti, Makita, Metabo, Milwaukee and Panasonic to see which one has the power and features of a champion. We also measure the sound level of these noisy machines.
Impact driver vs impact wrench review - Does the Metabo impact wrench with 400Nm of torque have more grunt than the less powerful 205Nm Dewalt DCF887?
The full reviews of each impact driver are listed below.

@demonhuntermoonwolf244 3 года назад

I have been running the same exact Bosch Impact as you are reviewing and I’m beyond impressed by it. Had many other brands and nothing that I have ever owned comes close to its sheer capabilities and sheer power.

@NOZZASLOADEDED 2 года назад

Apprentice had this Bosch impact driver, we thought it was good for a while too. He dropped it off a ladder, maybe 1.5-2m high and it snapped on the handle near the battery... Having run Milwaukee and DeWalt, we were super unimpressed by the structural strength of the Bosch.

@colin-manyeates-clan5221 Год назад

Ummm according to this test Bosch is the worst... so not sure why yours is so much better??? @19.11 min

@autonomous44 5 лет назад

I’m glad you are mentioning material consistency. I watch a lot of tool duel videos and such but i am always thinking not only about consistency in material, but also with consistency between operators and left or right hand etc. the way screws in wood can effect the surrounding wood and so on. I think you guys on RU-vid need to use plexiglass or hard plastic, something man made like those materials, something that doesn’t have such variation as wood and not porous like concrete.

@wallyknew 2 года назад

had a Bosch for years, it's been hammered and is as good as it was when I first got it. I do a lot of unistrut construction. Used it recently to put 25mm woodbits through timber. It changed my working life.

@mickleblade 6 лет назад

I'm mighty impressed with the makita impact driver I bought 5 yrs ago. Also did an accidental drop test, 2.5m straight down onto concrete.... the battery popped off, it's still fine.

Last test should have been a follow up with the Dewalt on all the screws that weren't driven in all the way. Bet the Dewalt company would have liked to have seen that. Thanks for the review. I'm going with the Dewalt.

@Bob Cooper I got one of Dewalt’s right angle drills on the 20v XR5 platform for some deck work. Holy crap, that thing will run a spade bit through a treated 4x4 like nothing is there. My son kept pestering me to drill a hole so I gave him a shot. It almost threw him like a sack of potatoes.

I’m a commercial carpenter and the 20v max xr impact is essentially my right hand. I’ve dropped it from five stories up and it still worked fine didn’t break anything on the tool itself just bent the crap out of the shaft I was using and battery was a little lose but that’s it.

@thebitefight2601 2 года назад

On the job site we have a few brands and everyone has fell in love with the Bosch hands down after using it for a few days it’s flat out the best.

@neilrobinson640 3 года назад

Old video I know but still worth a comment, I use the dewalt 887 and it’s a great tool, well balanced with the best grip in my opinion, but driving 180mm timber coach screws it struggles after 3 or 4, not surprising as it’s not built for that sort of graft, so I have got the metabo 400 1/2” wrench and a 1/2” - 1/4” Adapter and it drives all day no issue, not as comfortable as the dewalt but for proper heavy duty the metabo is a winner

@avancalledrupert5130 4 года назад

Everything makita feels like it grew in your hand. That for me is enough. Every now and then a brand outperforms them in a certain way on a certain product. But then the year after they allways drop something to top that. Never break just a joy to use.

Note thou Milwaukee is brushless and red lithium and lasted 6 months The panosonic lasted a year Dewalt lasted two years Makita has for 4 years never died but the batteries just stop working randomly. Now Hilti is a year in no issues but it’s early days

@SkillBuilder 6 лет назад

I have been talking to an engineer friend of mine who has offered up a theory on why the fluid drives performed so well in this test and punched well above their weight. He says that there is a certain amount of torsion in the bolts and the longer they are the more this is the case. If you hit the head you get twisting along the shank and that doesn't produce as much movement in the thread as a more sustained pushing action. Paradoxically the extra energy is, almost, counterproductive unless it is enough to produce the torsion, and some, which is what the DeWalt and Metabo did. He went on to say that there is the torsion moment of inertia and the polar moment. I don't pretend to understand this but I like the idea that sometimes the little guy wins the fight. Cleary all these bolts are struggling at the point where they run out of thread. As I said the force to overcome this is huge and we did snap the head of a bolt trying to drive it further with the DeWalt. Why did the video editor drop that clip?

@evanarachikavitz6819 6 лет назад

this is the idea behind the newer impact "flex bits"

@upas81 6 лет назад

Hi was right. Thats why its not good compare fastest mode. Because its diffrent torque. Same with drill there are 2speeds 1 for 70nM 2 for 50nm. Speed 2less torque but faster work. When you use blue. Mode. Its possible that its more speed and less torque. Ned to see in manual. What speed on what torque working.

@SkillBuilder 6 лет назад

The way an impact driver works is that the faster the hammer hits the anvil in rotation the more torque you get. It is like hitting a spanner with a hammer to tighten a nut. A drill works in a completely different way and the torque is in the gearbox and motor combination.

@SkillBuilder 6 лет назад

Interesting. I will give then a try and see what happens

@upas81 6 лет назад

What are you saying ok. Thats what told to us its true. But i got on my own with that. Many times. I will tel l you when its filed. Take screw driver with 70nm. Torque. And impact 180nm. Then drill in to concrete hole 5.5 and use screws (special screw drill straight to concrete)with T20 or T25 head. 20 cm long. You will see how torque 180 nm cant move screw in to concrete. And screw driver can do it with 50 nm. In my view point as more faster impact realise power, the les torque it reaching to turn screw. To understand that use Ridgid oil Pulse impact. You will feel the diferent on your hand. Impact just hamering. Oil pulse more turning. www.familyhandyman.com/masonry/concrete-repair/drilling-concrete-and-installing-fasteners/view-all/

@gjjakobsen 4 года назад

Given the inconsistent density of wood from spot to spot, it may be nice to drive fasteners through something else next time. Perhaps 6 or 8 engineered deck boards sandwiched together? It would also be interesting to take the highest torque DeWalt and finish the rest of those lag screws that the others failed to drive. Thanks for posting a most interesting match up. Looking forward to more. Cheers!

@BigAl4244 5 лет назад

Milwaukee should have been on par with Dewalt if you used the model that competes with the dewalt brushless impact drivers such as the 887. I'm a dewalt guy and I know Milwaukee is pretty Damn good.

@priestleyharker4046 5 лет назад

I know one thing. My makita is 6 years old and still going strong. I'm a Carpenter and have put it through the ringer. Now it's not as powerful as some of the other brands but not less enough to make a difference. Driving screws is one thing but i want my tools to last and these tests can't show that. I've seen them all come on the job and go but my makita impact driver is still going hard. I think thats far more important

@Billy_Darley 5 лет назад

time and money i suppose. money saved on tools without any major difference in time to complete a job.

@lou3824 5 лет назад

Pretty much the same for me with the makita. I've been using mine, without any trouble at all, for years. I've seen dozens of guys show up with new impacts on jobsites only to be replaced by something else fairly quick. Dewalt is known to work great when new, but they seem to develop the most problems too. I'll take the reliability of the Makita...

@moysesgaray8410 5 лет назад

I love my Makita but the other day I was using it to drive screws into drywall and it started smoking on me which is the reason why I even started watching this video. I'm so surprised and was shocked to see that happened but I always really loved my Makita and am taking second thoughts about it. Was it the Makita or would they all have done the same thing? I gave it a rest and it still worked fine after but my heart dropped when I noticed that happening!

@Jay Bee the tafe i went to to get my trade used dewalt, they had a deal with the company. My teachers and the students hated them. They were always getting replaced or broken. A lot of us used our own tools instead as they were no good. They may be better these days but it will take a long time for me to forget that. I don't care about the minor power bonus or battery life. I care about reliability and longevity

Could you try the drivers that past, on the screws that failed to be driven in? Just to check that those screws haven't hit any area of high resistance.

@mykemajewski6371 4 года назад

I have a hard time believing Bosch did that bad. I actually switched to Bosch from my dewalt set I had. And in my personal experience the Bosch out preformed dewalt. The 4ah battery for Bosch lasted twice as long as the dewalt 5ah battery as well. Side note, after 3 years both of the Bosch batteries are as strong as the day I bought them. My coworker has replaced 4 batteries since that time. Food for thought.

@shockwavemikey64 4 года назад

It is indeed to the old 18650 batteries they used. The new procore 21700 are absolute monsters. I drive 8" timberlok lag screws into oak rough boards to tie in the new replaced wall section to the old frame and my freak drove one through the timber board. The threads of the timberlok were protruding from the rough lumber. It was a no, no, but I wanted to know.

@shockwavemikey64 4 года назад

I routinely drive the 6" grk rss screws and the freak just won't stop driving them until I release the trigger.

@AstonColey 2 года назад

A better test would be to use a dial torque wrench and you would see the torque reading on the gauge. Trouble is with the oak it can be a different consistencies along its length.

@shadowhunter9713 5 лет назад

It's the platform you run and personal preference that matters most of all. I run a surge because I like how quiet it is. Installed rear supports for drawer slides in a narrow cabinet yesterday and there was no harsh noise echoing to my ears. Not a big deal if you don't use one all the time though. But I do.

@richardmarsh1332 2 года назад

Whistle this comparison was great, I found myself wondering if certain area's of that oak timber might have been a lot tougher to get through than others. Once the screws stalled with the weaker models it would have been a real clincher at the end to have gone back with say the Dewalt to see if it powered the screw up to the hilt with ease. Well done Roger.

Angel of War, not really... had it really been an impartial test they would’ve picked the Milwaukee Gen 3 Impact to compete vs the Milwaukee Surge. Do you know why? Because the Surge is a hydraulic/pulse driver. It has substantially lower ROM’s and IPM’s the the Gen 3. It’s only because the Milwaukee Surge is an awesome tool that it was able to drive the screw through the oak, smoking the Makita hydraulic offering. But really the bottom line is that it wasn’t an apples to apples test.

A couple seconds of speed or a hair extra power is nice and all, but you have to balance it against noise, feel, and battery efficiency. And when it comes to those, the Makita oil drive is the clear choice. It's feather light, it's super quiet, it lasts forever, and the battery efficiency can't be beat

@darrellelnor7789 4 года назад

Also would like to say that if you’d have put the 5amp battery in then you’d have got different results because I notice a big difference in between the 4 amp and the 5amp on how much torque you get

I have 4 classic Honda motorbikes and couldn't get some screws out. My mate came with his impact drill and got them out no problem. I decided to get the cheapest one I could, £40 from Wickes. Its one of the best tools I ever purchased. Gets screws in and out so much easier and better than with a screwdriver or drill and bit. Good too stuck nuts with adapter.

@jeffreynolds4702 5 лет назад

I think your protocols are great. All of us who are fanboys want to see our brand win on paper, but different tools excel at different applications. The truth that people don't want to admit is that you don't know how much you'll like a tool until you use it- and the better you like it, the more effectively yoy use it. I use my Bosch impact- which you're dead right about- more effectively than other guys use better drivers because I enjoy using it and mind the tool's needs to the end of getting the best results I can. Thank you for doing all this for us!

@SkillBuilder 5 лет назад

Thanks Jeff i am the first to admit this test was problematic. We will have another go at some point but looking at other tests I am not sure the result will be that different. Makita and DeWalt seem fairly safe bets. Having said that most impact drivers do the job for day to day applications.

@StagArmslower 4 года назад

I never had use for an impact driver; I usually broke the screws with it so I prefer regular drill. Even 3/8" impact wrench is more effective on tight bolts and nuts when working on the car. Still I bought 1/2" Ridgit impact wrench with brushless motor. In wood anything should work unless you are in construction business

@flyrc88 6 лет назад

Been running 12v Dewalt for 13 years no problem. For me modulation is the true test of an Impact driver. How slow can it go without wrecking your screw head or work. They can all slam screws in rapidly but not all can do it slowly...

@prepperjonpnw6482 5 лет назад

I’ve been using the same DeWalt 18v Drill 10-12 hours a day 6 days a week since 2001 and it’s still going strong. Obviously that’s not constant hours but a lot of the time I would use it for 2 hours straight then do something else for a bit then back to using the drill. So that’s why all my other cordless tools are also DeWalt. I’d like to see some tests of Ryobi and Ridgid and One+ since they are more for homeowners Cheers mate

@geoh7777 5 лет назад

It is easy to see that where the wood is marked "BOS," the oak has darker and denser figure. 15:03 The screw being driven by the Hitachi quickly swings over to an inclined angle, seeming to avoid denser, to seek weaker wood. Also, the "blowback" 15:27 is suspicious, both because it implies a denser wood that doesn't allow compressed gases (e.g. air, water vapor) to penetrate into the wood away from the hole, and that hole was the only hole to display that behavior (of the holes where the screw was backed out). It is clear that the idea that a long chunk of oak will not have widely varying local properties is not tenable.

Roger, I'm happy with my cheapo Ryobi Impact driver, drives in screws that's good enough to for me and only just under a hundred quid what not to like. I was on a site in Old St when some light fingered tealeaf had my tool box away and onsite tools go on the missing list, I would be well pissed off if to lose a tool costing several hundred quid. What about test some of the cheapoes..

@tilerman 4 года назад

Expect to be shot down a bit but here goes! 12 years ago my van got broken into and all tools gone. I was really short of cash and needed some power tools so i could work. I went and got an Erbauer impact driver from Screwfix. That tool is still going strong and still piles the screws in almost daily. Batteries still perfect and i can feel no wear at all on the tool itself. Yes its heavy and mine looks like its been though 3 world war's but i just cannot knock it.

Just bought a huge set of DeWalt FlexVolt 60v tools. Got the cordless mitre saw, reciprocating saw and dremal/ skill saw. Honestly the flex volt 60’s are godly. They shift power down automatically on the huge batteries so you can use the huge 60 volt batteries on the 20 volt dewalt cordless drills. I swear putting one of the huge 60 volt batteries on the dewalt impact makes it even a bit stronger.

The Milwaukee M18 FID, is automatically delivered with a 5amp or in 0-version. In this video he's using 4am for Milwaukee and 5am for other brands. Losing a bit newton and changing the result of real facts. I tried it by myself and it change the results. Milwaukee was faster and more powerfull. Give the right information to the people.

@martylucas8557 5 лет назад

Dylan, not only that, but he had the Surge compete against the other standard impact (except for Makita that really sucked) drivers. The Milwaukee Gen 3 Impact should’ve been chosen to compete. It would’ve smoked the competition. As it was I was surprised at how well the Surge did against the other brands. They just didn’t want the Milwaukee to take 1st again...lol!

I also would have prefered to see all the batterys to be all the same ah rating because it makes a significant difference.
