DeWalt 20V MAX XR 1/2 In. Impact Wrench vs DeWalt DCF891P2 Impact Wrench

Both are 20V MAX brushless 1/2 in. impact wrenches, but they are built for different jobs. The DCF961B is the high-torque tool: roughly 1,320 ft-lbs fastening and 1,900 ft-lbs breakaway, four speed settings including Precision Wrench, and a hog ring anvil. The DCF891P2 is the mid-torque all-rounder, lighter in the hand and sold as a kit with two 5.0Ah batteries. Buy the 961 for lug nuts, anchor bolts and pipe flanges; buy the 891 if you want one wrench for most garage and jobsite work and need batteries in the box.

• Choose the DCF961B if you need maximum breakaway torque for seized lugs, concrete anchors or large flange bolts and already own 20V MAX batteries.
• Choose the DCF891P2 if you want a lighter, more controllable wrench for general automotive and assembly work and need two batteries and a charger included.
