An air-powered impact wrench runs off of an air compressor with a tank – the air compressor should have at least a 10 gallon tank and be able to generate at least 3hp. Also, an impact wrench requires special sockets that are designed to withstand the high torque applied by the wrench.

How do I determine how much torque my impact wrench makes?

I test my impact wrench on a good vice and with a high grade steel nut/ washers and bolt that can take high torque. Select bolt with thread almost to the head. Hold head of bolt on solid vice and place two washers(more if needed to reach into threaded area) and nut on bolt. Set air pressure to max (I have 125psi). Run nut against bolt head with impact. Remove nut with torque wrench for reading. This low tech method will give you a rough idea. Higher pressure may give you better result. If you have used your air wrench for a while. Clean by adding diesel fuel into air fitting. Little at at time until diesel comes out rather clean. Then add a few drops of oil. Then test again. Good luck.

if you dont use hand tools often you should never trust the torque from impact wrench you should always recheck with tension wrench for correct torque specs
or at least hand tools such as breaker bar, spanner, ratchet

Air Wrench Question

An impact wrench works in the manner suggested by the name of the tool: through the principle of impact. In order to understand how an electrical or air-powered impact wrench works, it helps to know first how a manually powered impact wrench operates. A manually powered impact wrench looks like a fat screwdriver; on the end where the screwdriver blade normally goes, you can snap on screwdriver bits or sockets.

Wrench support

impact wrenches are often misused by those who don’t know about their special needs. First of all, it is very important to be careful when tightening a nut or bolt with an impact wrench! Cross threading can occur very easily; a novice may also over-torque a bolt or a nut if they don’t know when to stop. To prevent such problems, always be sure to hand-tighten every nut or bolt before using the impact wrench; if you try to start the nut or bolt with the impact wrench, you won’t be able to feel if the threads are crossed. If the impact wrench is not torque controlled – meaning it will stop when the nut or bolt is tightened to a certain torque – you will need to go slowly, and periodically check the torque value of the nut or bolt to make sure you haven’t tightened it too far.
