Torque guns are just significantly better, but they’re expensive as all hell, some battery powered ones can cost up to 20k or something insane like that

This thing is genius. With the kind of drills we have now, something like this would be awesome to help save some bucks while also gaining flexibility. The adjustable spring is great. You don't always need full beans and you might not always have the best drill to make it chooch.

Another great video! Thank you! Your channel is very informative. I often come here and check out your reviews on tools before I purchase them!

Hey, love the channel. Seeing the hand drill and adapter combo made me wonder if you'd be interested in testing a manual impact wrench? I'm talking about a Swench. They were made by Curtiss-Wright, then a company called PowerHawk and now I think Snap-on has the rights but it's all the same tool. It looks like a heavy ratchet wrench with a square drive on each side but the head of the wrench is the hammer and the spring is in the handle. Tension is adjustable with an Allen key. You just turn it until the spring is compressed and let's go, slamming the hammer, drive and socket into the nut. I may not be doing a good job explaining how it works but there are a few videos on KZread demonstrating their use. Apparently they were designed for the military for repairing heavy equipment in the field. Anyway I've got the baby of the lineup, the 1/2" model and I think it's rated at 400ft/lbs but it'd be interesting to see what it's actually capable of. I rarely use it anyway, I bought it more as a curiosity than anything else. But my experience using it for lug nuts has shown me that the speed at which you crank the handle has a lot to do with it. There are bigger models that claim to hit thousands of lb/ft so maybe if some other people could loan you theirs you could make a whole video about them. A comparison to other oddball impacts wouldn't be bad either. Just don't cut it apart, lol!

Awesome video brother!

Ive always wanted to see an impact mechanism work. That was pretty cool.

Hey man, let me tell you! Drills today may be better... but my 18v Dewalt XRP 3 speed Hammer Drill with all metal gearbox of over 15years ago certainly didn't suck! I abused that poor thing so bad! 2" bimetal hole saws through 1" plate steel! 1" drill through 3" steel blocks! At one point it even quit running and had smoke pouring out of the brush vents! When it cooled down, it ran again and lived on for another 5 years! It took me 15 years to finally burn it out, and for being one tool in a four tool kit for a measly $250... it paid for itself a hundred times over! This is one of the biggest reasons I'm sold on Dewalt for life!

We definitely need this remade.

Half.the time i have no idea what going on in these videos... but i like it..😂😂😂

Heck yeah that adapter is awesome!

Very intriguing video, and what a contrast between the two!

That adjustable collar idea would really help with usability like you said, even on torque drivers for when the screw isn't tight in there or needs to be smashed in

love that you mention honda crank bolts. i've been struggling with one

When I started at my job years ago, we had an old "4-1" torque multiplier. My supervisor told me it was 4-1, because it rotated 1 on the output for every 4 on the input... ... except it only multiplied by 3.33, which means they'd been under-tightening everything for years, not to mention they'd occasionally use an impact on it to break stuff loose. We got a new one.

What a fantastic piece of kit

Norbar makes some impressive industrial torque multipliers. I’ve got one that will shear 1 1/8” hex sockets using only a standard 24” 1/2” drive breaker bar for input…makes a guy jumpy when things break.

It's rare to see an actual innovation like this. Nowadays we usually see innovation when technology advances but this is nothing but good solid thinking!

I have never needed an adjustable impact so badly before, that adapter is incredible!

#1 standing on the wheel brace always worked for me.

That drill to impact adaptor is really cool!

I have one of those master craft adapters. Bought it for only 12 dollars quite a few years ago. That thing has always worked great for me.

Yes, get the multipliers! I have been eyeing a set to keep in my truck but idk if its worth it.

Good one. Thank you.

That little tool is fantastic especially for a small DIYer who doesn't have the property to have some of the better industrial/Mechanic shop tools. Hell I'd love to see them make that again. I'd buy it.

I bought the mastercraft drill adapter for $6 at a thrift store new in the package and was quite shocked how hard it hit. It was a great buy.

I am so glad that I already bought a braker-bar for my lugnuts... too many places that rotate tires over-torque the lugnuts too often, that I stand over them when they rotate my tires... And, if one lives in the Salt-Belt, one MUST have a braker-bar to change a flat!

Quite interesting. At in one time I was thinking of getting one of those hand crank type wrenches. To get what I thought would be a good one it was more than a battery impact wrench. This pretty much proved me right. On the one for the drill, I never seen one of those. If I did I might have gotten one. Slick device. A lot of battery impacts have an adjustment on them, not as adjustable as the drill powered one, usually just three positions.

I for one would love to see these back on the market. I haven't bought a real electric impact yet. I like the idea of and add on for a drill I already have.

I did *not* expect that out of the drill adaptor. That thing is sick. Makes sense though, it would be a massive drill motor to house that big ass hammer and spring, but thats not a problem for an attachment.

YES!! Have one, and wish I could buy another one, but unfortunately cannot be found anymore... The only weak spot is the plastic, which the housing is made of. Mine cracked along the front, then eventually the crack advanced around and the front of the body just separated, rendering it useless... Still have it, and planning on fixing it with a metallic front replacement...

I had a torque multiplier that I 7sed a few times to take the wheels off my semi truck. I was happy with it but it was definitely a lot slower than the proper impact.

We have higher end version of these torque multipliers for changing tyres on our semi trailers on the deck spreading trailers. When the deck is spread you can not get a long enough bar on the wheel but due to lack of space

A $40 attachment that will turn my drill into a Dewalt 891?! Yes please!

I still have 9 of these Canadian Tire specials, I bought them while on half price sale!

I have one of those adapters brand new in the package. Bought it on sale many years ago and never used it, I am definitely going to break it out and try it now lol

mr torque i really love these videos

Yeah that drill impact adapter is pretty cool. There's definitely a market for that. More in the DIY market then the professionals. Seeing that one a impact would be sweet tho. Might give my 1/2 inch mid tourqe just enough beans to where I don't gotta buy the high torque.

Finally, finally torque test on Torque Test Channel
