NitroCat - 1375XL 1375-XL 1/2-Inch Mini Composite Air Impact Wrench with Twin Clutch Mechanism, multi, one size

This is my 3rd Aircat gun, not 3rd because they don't hold up, third because I have 2 at the shop I work for and one at home, I'm going to order another of these for home shop.These have great power, are very quiet (something you come to appreciate after 20 years of noise in shops) and have nice ergonomics.I've owned guns that are 3x the price (Snap-on, Marco) and I will not be buying anything but Aircat anymore.

When I was replacing the rear brakes on my Acura TSX, my old 3/8" impact gun wasn't strong enough to remove the rusted caliper bolts, and my 1/2" was too large to fit inside the suspension. I needed a 3/8" impact gun with the power of my 1/2", and that is where this came in. It is small, lightweight, and has the power of a much larger gun. I would most definitely buy this again! It is a fantastic tool! I may never use my 1/2" impact gun again...lol

I've owned Snap On, Mac , Matco and Ingersol Rand impacts and used a dozen others of one brand of another as shop provided tools...this Air cat is the best impact and value for the money of any brand out there. The trigger is easy to feather and this thing will remove wheel boots that make 1/2 impacts groan... If you need a good, powerful,.lightweight 3/8 impact get this one.. Make sure you have a grease gun, some air tool grease and of course air tool oil. This does have the grease fitting on the front. I would expect with good maintenance this tool should be a long lasting edition to my tool box

Bought and own this air impact for 3 months now and it's time to give its review that it deserves. Being an owner of a harbor freight 1/2 air impact at the feel of weighing 20ibs (it's actually weight is 6ibs) lifting it to take off lugnuts in the shop and other things was tiring but it helped build muscles at the same time too aha to now owning this mini composite air impact weighing nothing at all, easy to grip and fits in your hand perfectly and having the same force to pull off lugnuts like my full sized impact and the torque to impact lugnuts back on is near the same! The noise produced from this impact is a lot quieter than I thought since you can almost have a conversation with someone while using the impact! This impact is used for taking off lugnuts, doing alignments, installing steering linkages on trucks, suspensions and more. Cannot complain at all and very satisfied with Nitrocat! Money well spent and all my coworkers are turning their heads at my mini impact that it has a bit more torque than their snapon and matco mini air impacts! 2 coworkers had matco's mini air impact and both warranty their impacts more than 2 times in less than 2 months in a year. One issue with them was it all of a sudden stop impacting off the lugnuts or tighten down at all. It got so bad that the last warranty they couldn't due it and that they had to pay for another impact instead of trading it.

Very powerful

1 drawback: trigger is somewhat sensitive. it can be controlled with practice but not as easy as new mac impacts, snap on mg725. matco and IR 2135Ti. 2 drawback is switch is not very convenient for one hand operation, but you could use one hand to switch it with practice. now the good part. this impact does not lack in power for day to day use, i would imagine it would struggle to break loose certain bolts like a honda crank pully bolt, but its so light weight and stable. its very good on your arm and wrist if you do auto repair for a living. did i mention that its very fast? definitely more superior than any other impact guns our there except for those 2 drawbacks i didnt like

this tool is the best. it will break hard to get off nuts with no problem.

I am a pro tech and use this daily, mostly on wheel lugs of all shapes and sizes. It takes everything off quickly without struggling, and the variable forward power settings (3 "speeds") make reinstall torque easy to control. I typically use the lowest setting, and hand torque from there.It's VERY quiet compared to the other impact guns in the shop ( a godsend when you have to use it all day, trust me). It's light weight and small size compared to my others make it a very versatile tool.If you're looking at an IR Titanium or similar composite impact, and want to save some cash, pick up one of these! You won't be disappointed.

Lots of breaking torque at 90lbs. Surprised me for a company I never heard of. Great price. Love the grip sits in the hand more like a pistol. Will be buying more nitrocat products in the near future.Gun gets dirty but grease wipes right off.

This gun is amazing! Owned for 5 months now i service airport limos and it puts in work. I mean real work from transmissons to suspension. From lincoln towncars to escalades 50 hours a week. Gets in those tight places and the light weight helps on your joints. Only con is if your adding more than a 4 inch extention or a flex socket power is greatly reduced. Which is totally understandable...thinking of purchasing the larger 1200 seris for those applications. And it needs to be oiled daily and greased every so often or you will run into power loss.

Very wicked gun. Insanely fast. Small. Good power

Yeah.....it is more powerful than a 231c......and half the size and weight.Edit...a few weeks later....I'm using this professionally every day. It is now my "go to" gun for everything. I've busted off plenty of stubborn wheel nuts, axle nuts, and caliper hanger bolts. It has loosened off many tough truck lugs that my co-workers' air guns could not. Bonus, it fits in places where a full size gun won't, like between suspension parts and a wheel hub bearing bolt. For all you pros, have a close look at Mac Tools air impacts and Aircat's. Then when you figure it out, compare prices.

this things a beast, spins lugs off like they are nothing, and light too. I suspect I'll be using this instead of my 1/2" for most stuff since this has so much torque. Also, I think its now a twin-hammer if you look at the aircat website, the twin clutch 1355-xl is discontinued and had red stripes on it.
