i only got a couple 3/4 that are very common shop has the rest

I wanna get a full set one day but that can wait

And my 3/4 keeps breaking the reducers I've tried a couple different brands, if I turn it down a little it's fine but on full blast it breaks reducers, I think a lot has to do with the insane air compressor, Bc at my old job I didn't break near as much stuff


Yeah run that bitch at 90 psi like it says lol

If you need to crank a 3/4" impact past 90 psi you should probably put some heat on it and reassess.

You haven't seen my old bolt twister then lol. I bought a 1.5" drive Ingersoll-Rand impact like 5 years ago when I was still wrenching on the farm equipment.

Now I just use it for twisting off bolts rather than torching them. It runs on 130 psi and IIRC peak torque is just north of 3500 ft lbs :rofl:

One of the best purchases I've ever made.

Don't use it a lot but when you need it. It's a life saver. Kind of hard on the wrists though... Thing weighs a ton.

Hence the cart lol. We use one of these with a 1" air hose adapted to it.
