Chicago Pneumatic has introduced another powerful new tool designed to increase workshop productivity.
CP7727/37 are 3/8” and ½” angle impact wrenches capable of providing users with 300Nm of maximum torque in reverse. The impact wrench is designed with a direct drive system and a jumbo hammer mechanism with steel motor to provide the operator with a durable and efficient tool, enabling mechanics and vehicle service professionals to increase their uptime and productivity.
The compact tool is just 240mm in length and 88mm in height, allowing the user to access areas where manoeuvrability with a standard tool would be difficult. Ergonomic design and a moulded composite handle means it easily fits into the user’s hand and provides them with the comfort they need during jobs. The unique positioning of the motor combined with a jumbo hammer and direct drive mechanism also means the new angle impact wrench is well balanced, robust and efficient.
Chicago Pneumatic created the Tool to break away from the conventional design of Angle Impact Wrenches and provide an overall better performing tool. Typically angle impact wrenches are designed with the motor in the handle, which can be bulky and uncomfortable to hold, but by moving the motor into the head of the impact wrench CP has been able to provide users with the maximum torque available directly at the point of impact. This adds efficiency, with no energy wasted in a gear system, enabling users to improve their air usage, and ultimately profitability.
Luis Clement, vice-president, Chicago Pneumatic Tools says, “Everything about this tool is compact and it is lighter than existing products on the market. By weighing only 1.12kg users are able to complete their work in a timely less tiring way.”
