Can you get enough torque with this tool or do you need one that uses a nut driver?

I would imagine so. The handle has a good texture for grip and I'm sure the Glock front sight I replaced had Loctite on it.
1859454
The handle is big enough for you to get as much torque as needed without extra leverage. The danger for its intended use is that you can get TOO much torque on that little 3/16" nut and strip the threads. Use blue Locktite on the threads and tighten until snug, just not "a little extra". You will be happy with the results. This is a good tool.

Used this tool twice with no problems. I would say you will have plenty enough torque.

If used for Glock front sight removal - it is adequate and no other tools required. This was the only tool I needed for this job.
1859457
I had absolutely no problem removing the nut off the front sight of my Glock, and also adequately torqued it back down when installing mepros. I suppose it would depend on your application, but it was perfect for my situation.

The nut this tool will drive is very thin and small and the shaft it mounts to would not stand up to a lot of torque.It is a delicate job, but hand turning until tight has been just fine on my glock. The front post is secure and strongerthan the oem all plastic front sight post.

This one seems more than adequate, as the handle is large enough to allow you to snug up the nut.

I used this tool to reset the front sight on my glock that was not properly installed by the gunsmith. It worked fine for that purpose.

You can use any bit that has a 1/4 hex shank head so Yes with the "TEKTON 2928 14-Piece Power Nut Driver Bit Set" and No you can not use it with the "Anytime Tools 4 piece Flexible Socket Extension Flex Bar Ratchet Auto/Mechanic Tools 1/4" Drive & 3/8" Drive".Forgot to add that you can obviously use the 1/4 drive and 3/8 drive Flexible socket set if you use an adapter (1/4 hex head to 1/4 drive) or (1/4 hex head to 3/8 drive).

Personally I wouldn't. It's got awesome torque but for that kind of job you probably need to go with an impact wrench.

I used it for changing tires on a light SUV. I broke the lug nuts free with a breaker bar and the Bosch did the rest. When tightening I used the Bosch and then finished with a torque wrench set to 105 ft-pound. Most of the nuts required less than 1/4 of a turn to finish. All in all very impressive.

As another person answered, it is best to break the nuts free first with a breaker bar and finish by tightening with a torque wrench. This tool has a maximum 1,650lb/in of torque, which converts to 137lb/ft. Most 1/2" impact wrenches (this is an impact driver not wrench) have in the neighborhood of 300-400 lb/ft of torque. Of course, pneumatic impact wrenches can have well over 500lb/ft.

This drill is an Drill/Hammer Drill combo. It is not an Impact Driver. The operating principles are different. You can use this to remove lug nuts etc... but don't expect it to work well.

Yes. this drill uses the hex driver. You can use Phillips, flathead, square, torx, adapter from hex to 1/4, 3/8 socket you can use them with drill bits that have the hex drive. Many many many ways.

lol torque? You're kidding right. Dude I'm a cable technician and drill through 12 inch thick block with this bad boy. It's a dewalt. There's not a better drill out that I've tried.

The drive shaft of this drill is hex based only. If u have a hex attachment for a socket set you could probably use the drill for low torque type work, but otherwise this drill is primarily a power screwdriver.

No, all you need it a socket and for the inside nut. Just don't over tightened.

Lug nuts require a substantial amount of (tourqe) power, usually air powered tools are used for this. If you can't can't consider an air (impact ) tool then this may do the job ! It's pretty powerful!
971936
Yes but the speed is probably way to high and when you lower it you lose a lot of torque so it's far from ideal. A drill capable of 2-4000 rpm would be better.

The tool is good but it needs sufficient air pressure (psi) to remove large nuts on a wheel, as in your tractor. I needed to go to a dealer ( Sears) to get any real information on torque and or power. It is always returnable to sears, but it still requires trips to the store or return trips if it has insuffiicient power to do the job. ( good compressor, and high torque gun is the answer. Good luck...RJB

You can't just set a torque value on this wrench; you have to put it into a memory location. Memory is maintained across power cycles.

I don't know the exact torque value, lets just say it's good for light work and tight spaces which is why I got it. If you need heavier torque, I suggest you purchase a butterfly impact gun, flexable and easy to use. Assuming you have compressed air, beyond that, you would need a standard impact driver for the tough ones, and impact bits.

I would use a pneumatic impact driver with a torque wrench, I would not suggest using this for lug nuts. I use this instead of a corded screw gun

This is an impact only driver. I feel most unsuitable for constant torque application as needed for raising and lowering a jack screw thread.
