Ayala, a senior technician with 20 years of experience, works on medium and heavy duty trucks. Juan reviews the AIRCAT 1770-XL, 3/4" "Super Duty" Impact Wrench for heavy duty use. He finds the torque is "unbelievable." He uses it for removing wheels on medium and heavy duty vehicles, removing head bolts, torque and turning head bolts. The grip on the 1770-XL is great, according to the reviewer. He says for a bigger gun with a lot of torque, it’s very comfortable.

The controls on the 1770-XL are designed to be easy to use. They can be used one handed if you needed to, from forward to reverse. And it does have the option of lowering the torque if needed. The 1770-XL has a two year warranty on it.
