- Is this wrench strong enough for lug nuts?
- Yes. A 3/4-inch high torque impact wrench is sized for lug nuts and larger fasteners, and this one is aimed at that class of work. Use impact-rated sockets and check the torque with a wrench afterward.
- Does it come with a battery and charger?
- That depends on the kit version. Some bundles include an 18V battery and charger, others are tool-only. Check the listing contents before buying if you do not already own Ridgid 18V batteries.
- How does it compare with a 1/2-inch impact wrench?
- It delivers more torque and takes larger sockets, so it handles heavier work. A 1/2-inch compact wrench is lighter and better for engine bays and tight spaces.
- What sockets do I need?
- You need 3/4-inch drive impact-rated sockets. Standard chrome sockets can crack under impact loads, so use sockets marked for impact use.
- Can I use it for light assembly work?
- It can, but the high torque and weight make it awkward for small fasteners. A compact driver or smaller impact wrench is easier to control for light jobs.
- Where is the Ridgid 18V Brushless Cordless 3 4 In High Torque Impact Wrench cheapest?
- At The Home Depot, for $279.00, as of our latest check.
