Nothing but Heavy-Duty. In 1924, the founding of Milwaukee power tools lit a fire beneath the entire fabrication industry. Introducing the first ever quarter-inch portable drill, the Milwaukee Hole-Shooter, Milwaukee impressed crafters and fabricators everywhere and totally scrambled their competition. Since then, and for nearly 90-years, Milwaukee has continued to advance and inspire the tool communities with a virtually endless string of innovations. Their Sawzall and Hole-Hawg, for example, were the very first of their kind and have since become staples in the industrial marketplace.
Producing up to 240 ft. lbs. of torque and featuring one of Milwaukee's rugged DC motors, this impact wrench can achieve tasks only corded impact wrenches could do in the past. Removing lug nuts from vehicle tires, driving large lag bolts deep into wood, and augering large holes in telephone poles can easily be accomplished with the 9079 impact wrench.
The tool also features a heavy-duty 25-amp MarquardtTM switch and an all-metal front housing to withstand rough job-site abuse. Besides its durability, the tool is also extremely comfortable to use. A mid-positioned handle for great balance with a cushioned grip area, a soft-touch variable speed switch, and an easy-to-use forward/reverse switch make many tough jobs seem effortless.
With TWO of Milwaukee's long-run time 2.4 amp-hour batteries, users will find that they can complete numerous tasks before requiring a recharge. The vehicle charger is capable of handling all of Milwaukee's12 volt to 18 volt Power Plus batteries and allows mobile recharging by plugging into a vehicle's lighter or power receptacle.
