The new WORX Nitro 20V ½ inch Brushless Impact Wrench is a compact, lightweight powerhouse.
The brushless impact wrench busts loose and tightens stubborn nuts, bolts and lugs, and it’s not limited to automotive use.
The cordless impact wrench is equipped with a Nitro brushless motor for enhanced output, performance, and dependability. The maintenance-free, brushless motor runs cooler with less friction and heat buildup than conventional motors with brushes.
Worx said the motor runs 50% longer, providing 25% more power than a brushed motor resulting in smooth, reliable operation and extended tool life.
The impact wrench provides three no-load speeds of 0-1300/2000 and 2900 rpm. The tool’s impact rate is 0-2000/3200 and it delivers 3600 impacts-per-minute (ipm). The tool’s maximum torque is 2664 in.-lbs. Speed, impact and torque ranges are selected through the wrench’s digital keypad. Pressing the keypad advances the tool’s torque from low (1), to medium (2), and high (3). The fourth keypad is for driving screws with a screw icon ID.
The variable-speed trigger provides complete control of fastening applications. Auto stop is a feature that’s activated in reverse when in the 3rd speed range. It automatically stops the tool’s rotation once the bolt is loosened.
“Having a tool like this at your disposal is empowering,” said Angel Rebollar, WORX product manager. “In addition to removing and tightening lug nuts, it handles many ratchet and socket jobs, and also performs building tasks such as driving 3 in. lag screws when building decks.”
For the shade tree mechanic, a cordless impact wrench without a compressor and air hose in tow makes removing lugs for tire rotation or replacement easier to manage.
The same applies to a myriad of other jobs, such as removing skid plate and cross member nuts and bolts, leaf spring U-bolt nuts, and more.
