There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
It has been over two years now and this beast still works great. I must say I keep it in good shape. clean, oiled, and dont like to toss it. But the ones I bought for my cooworkers.......well..... they dont pay much attention to it. They toss it, wack it, drop it and like nothing. Compared to mine I can barely tell the difference in torque they virtually at the same power although mine feels a little tighter but not by much. I highly recommend this tool. Makes your job fun, easy & less noisy.
I bought this because I read the reviews and I was like wow!. Well, I've had it for a few weeks now. I work in the plastic industry and have to change molds on a daily basis, they range from 800kg to 20,000kg. Some guys have their impacts rated at 450, 550, 650,and 800ft-lbs. So when I had my old mastercraft rated at 320ft-lbs I had a hard time loosening bolts........well that changed. When I go to do a change over those bolts come off like butter LITERALLY! the power its amazing. The weight of the gun its not as light as I thought but it balances off with the airline and the grip I get its really comfortable. Its not as quiet as I expected but since I don't have to lay on it to loose bolts the time per bolt its really really short. I oil it according to use but mostly everyday since I change at least 4 molds a day.
The only thing that I was not very impressed with was the torque power when tighten the bolts. I don't really think it goes 900ft-lbs as specified. I have had some loosen out with a 450ft-lbs gun, I had to lay on the bolt for like 3 seconds but it came out without mayor hassle. I think the real torque must be around 550-600ft-lbs.
One thing I noticed which I think is good but I thought it wasn't is that once you reached the maximum torque power the gun slows down by itself, It doesn't let you force it. With the other ones you lay for seconds and seconds "torqueing" but the gun its just making noise and you are actually damaging your sockets, wrench and bolts. At first I thought it was lack of power in the gun but later I realized it wasn't.
Overall I'm happy with it, Time will decide how good is overtime. My old one lasted me about 7 months before I noticed lack of power but It was a cheap one. If this one lasts me at least 18 months I would be pleased.
Good product.
Updated September 2013
3 of my coworkers are ordering their own!! since they saw how good, light, powerfull and quiet mine is. THIS GUN ROCKS!!!!
January 2015 update.
So it has ben more than 18 months and my nitrocat its as good and powerful as day one. I have bought 8 in total for my coworkers. They love it and are glad they have it. Just ordered the las three two weeks ago. Definetly worth the money!
Some of my coworkers have IR titanium and snap on blue point and this baby puts them to shame not just in power but in quietness too. Silent power!
From the moment I pulled this thing out of the box I knew I was going to like it. The body is comfortable to grip. it actually feels good in your hand. It's well balanced. Just the grip alone is worth a star or two.
The reason I bought it was because of the other reviews referring to it's torque and ability to remove frozen bolts. I walked around an old tedder with some rusty nuts that haven't come off in decades. First one - pulled the trigger for half a second to see how it sounded - MUCH quieter than my old one (a major concern for me having already lost so much of my hearing) And SMOOTH. I went to give the trigger another squeeze and realize the nut was already off the bolt. I couldn't believe how fast, quiet, and powerful this thing was.
So smooth that I spent the next 20 minutes just looking for stuff to take apart with it. I'd say "for this price" I don't see how you can go wrong, but honestly, I'd be happy with this if I paid twice as much for it. Paying so little is just icing on the cake.
It's too new to talk about longevity, but if this thing stays together, I'll rank it up there with some of my favorite tool purchases. So in addition to the other claims here about this wrench's abilities, I'll add that It's an actual pleasure to use. I will reach for this thing WAY more often than my old one. I didn't come into this purchase thinking about comfort and noise, but now that I've got it I realize that really does matter.
Overall good bang for the buck and cheaper the a battery power alternative. If you have a compressor that can support i'd say it is worth the money.

have used ingersoll's for 25 years 231's , 2135's , 2151qt's , The Nitro has all the power and just as quiet as the ingersoll's
it was a toss up between Nitrocat and a 2235 ingersoll. power for dollar spent . I decided to try the NitroCat.
This gun is very deceiving the more it needs power the more it deliver's !
I would recommend this gun .
30 years experiance in the trade .
