Milwaukee M18 Fuel 1/2-Inch Controlled Torque Impact Wrench
Ever since smart tools became a thing, we’ve wondered if we could get legitimate dial-in torque control on an impact wrench. Previous attempts were based on blow counts rather than actual torque sensing. However, Milwaukee has developed new-to-world sensors that not only help the M18 Fuel Torque Controlled Impact Wrenches have more accuracy but also the ability to learn as they go.
Currently, Milwaukee is targeting the Power and Utility sector with this technology, so automotive techs may have to wait a little longer. That said, this is an exciting step forward that can eliminate the need for a two-step impact wrench/torque wrench process.
Get this one with a 1/2-inch friction ring (3062-20) or 1/2-inch pin detent (3062P-20) for $1399.
Milwaukee M18 Fuel High Torque 1/2-Inch Impact Wrenches
Milwaukee’s product team reimagined what a high-torque impact wrench could be and what came out is extremely impressive. There are two versions available with either a pin detent or friction ring. The more powerful friction ring option produces up to 1500 ft-lbs of nut-busting torque with a 5.0Ah battery or 1600 ft-lbs with the new Forge 6.0Ah battery.
What makes it even more special is how compact the tool is. It’s 7.6 inches long and weighs 7.5 pounds with a 5.0Ah battery. Additionally, Milwaukee brought their battery isolation concept from the 1-inch D-handle impact wrench over, helping improve the durability of the battery.
Here’s a quick look at how the two models stack up:
| 2967 Friction Ring | 2966 Pin Detent | |
| Speed | 0 – 2000 RPM | 0 – 2000 RPM |
| Impact Rate | 0 – 2400 IPM | 0 – 2700 IPM |
| Fastening Torque | 1200 ft-lbs | 900 ft-lbs |
| Breakaway Torque | 1600 ft-lbs | 1100 ft-lbs |
| Length | 7.6 inches | 7.1 inches |
| Weight | 7.5 pounds w/5.0Ah battery | 7.0 pounds w/5.0Ah battery |
Both options run $299 as a bare tool or $499 as a kit with two 5.0Ah resistant batteries and a charger.
