        Will this take off a crankshaft pulley bolt?

        1 Answer | 
        Answer This Question

        Hello, Green12 - It depends on what the bolt is torqued to, but some require 400-700 ft./lbs. or more of torque to loosen, so we recommend something more heavy duty.

              Answer This Question

              No, this one P263 is misrepresented in the description as having 220 ft/lbs. It does not. the box states 150 ft/lbs which is not enough to remove lug nuts. Most lug nuts are 120 to 160 ft/lbs depending on mfg but this tool could not remove mine.

                  To my knowledge, no it can’t. For your lawnmower blade you’d be better off, and safer using a torque wrench.

                      Specified Torque Value on Site is Wrong!
                      Ordered it online and was just delivered today. The website claims it has 220 ft. lbs. of torque, however, the box shows that it only has 150 ft. lbs. of torque. Definitely misleading... Will be returning based on that alone.

                          Useless
                          I bought this tool a few years ago mainly because it was about the same price as the large battery alone. I finally had the opportunity to use it and it can’t loosen a single lug nut on any of my cars. Once I used a breaker bar, with not a ton of force, this driver basically saved me a couple seconds over using my hand to turn the socket. When I tried to tighten the lug nuts, it gave up super early and I was able to do multiple rotations by hand before torque to spec. Absolutely useless.

                            Useful for under $100
                            I use this mainly for tire rotations on my vehicles. I have ran into issues on any serious suspension repairs or over torqued lug nuts. But it’s honestly been a very high value tool when I’ve needed it. Don’t use it professionally this is only used at my house. All in all great bang for the buck around the house.

                              Powerful impact wrench on a budget
                              I purchased this a month ago for work related on my car. It has a brushed motor, it will make sparks so watch out for that. It seems to be well built, the kit I got came with a 4AH battery, at a very good price! I expected it to be cheap quality but it is surprisingly well built, sturdy, and it is powerful, so wheel lugnuts will be no problem whatsoever! Happy with this purchase!

                                      Good impact with one really annoying flaw
                                      I bought this impact a little over three months ago on sale for around $99 with battery which is was a great deal. Got it to use at home for taking wheels off mostly. It had plenty of power and I was quite impressed with it for the price. The one flaw it has is its detent avail though. When I bought this I didn't do any know any difference so it wasn't even a factor. The detent that holds the sockets on is so still I couldn't get sockets off by pulling, or even sticking a small screwdriver in to release them. One day my bother used it and pulled a socket off and the detent flew off as well. Now it doesn't hold sockets which is super annoying. I would take it back if it was within the time limit buts its over 90 days so ill just keep it for the battery as I have too many other ryobi products already. I ordered the brushless ryobi impact with the friction ring and it should be much better. Guess its what I get for not doing research.
