Chicago Pneumatic says its new CP7782TL-6 tool, which it says is the first and only 1’’ torque limited impact wrench available, has been very positively received and is proving especially popular with garages carrying out heavy vehicle tyre work.

This tool is designed to provide a limited torque in forward position, giving out around 370 ft.lbs / 500 Nm, offering a reliable tightening process. The CP7782TL-6 forward mode allows the operator to tighten bolts with confidence, as it will limit the torque automatically. The operator can then simply finish off the tightening with a manual torque wrench.

The CP7782TL-6 is designed to tighten bolts properly according to vehicle manufacturer’s recommendations and to increase the operator’s efficiency. For tough and hard-to-remove overtightened bolts, the CP7782TL-6 also delivers high power in reverse up to 1920 ft.lbs / 2600 Nm.

The CP7782TL-6 is available now from local stockists.
