AIRCAT® 3/8" Composite Impact Wrench Twin Hammer "Super Clutch" Mechanism
Model #1300-TH
1 of 1 would recommend this to a friend
The 1300-TH uses the rugged and reliable Twin Hammer mechanism - better suited for all-around automotive use.
The TWIN HAMMER Mechanism consists of 2 hammers in a closed cage which rotates around the anvil. This design allows the hammer to hit at the same time on both sides of the anvil. A twin hammer design is very durable and particularly suitable for long operating cycles. A further advantage is that the design consists of few individual parts and this makes it very easy to service. The twin hammer is lubricated by grease. Lubrication can be easily done from outside via greasing fitting without opening the housing. The TWIN-Hammer design is best used for industrial, all-around automotive applications, tire service and assembly.
All the Power, Half the Noise! The AIRCAT tool line has a substantially reduced level of noise while retaining more power and torque. Our tools have been tested & shown to operate at 82-86 dBa (decibels), far below the OSHA guidelines. This feature benefits not only the mechanic but also the overall business. The patented tuned exhaust muffler technology, in all the tools, allows discharged air to pass without developing back pressure, thus retaining more power, while significantly reducing noise. AIRCAT has innovated through-the-handle exhaust design, which incorporates its revolutionary worldwide patented internal muffler/filter. The benefits include reduced hazards from breathing exhausted air particulates, the elimination of blow-by into the operators eyes and lungs as well as reduce noise. AIRCAT also incorporates a patented ergonomically engineered handle design to relieve stress and fatigue on the operators hands, wrists and arms. The patented AIRCAT handle offers better overall distribution of weight for a balanced tool and provides a unique grip that makes it easier to use for prolonged periods of time.

I own two AIRCAT Impact's, a 1/2" and a 3/8". I've owned several other Impact wrenches over the years but nothing compares to the quality and strength of the AIRCAT impacts. The AIRCAT's are unique as they are made from some type of composite material making them much lighter than impacts made by the competition. They are so powerful that I primarily use my 3/8" AIRCAT for most jobs where I was using 1/2 impacts from the other guys, I only break out my 1/2" AIRCAT on very rare occasions. Another unique feature is the AIRCAT's noise level as compared to the others, AIRCAT has a unique muffler system that cuts down on the noise yet doesn't have any negative effect on power output. Now that I've been exposed to AIRCAT I'll never again own any other brand. BTW; Both of my AIRCAT's are now about 3 years old and get a lot of use (and abuse) without ever letting me down.

Tool is a good buy for the money. Light and balanced for ease of use.
Would rather have the fwd and rev. lever on the handle so you could use your thumb it would come in handy when you're using your other hand to hold on to something for whatever reason. Very good power for the size.
No problems with the tool at all in 2 yrs of moderate use.

I have used other un-muffled impacts before. This is the way to go. With a steel nose on it, you don't have to worry about cracking plastic when you need to get a job done in a hurry. The grip's comfort is astounding but trigger pull needs an experienced touch in order to deliver only a fraction of its rated torque. I only give it four stars because of the fact that it's too easy to accidentally apply too much force and break bolts. With a little experience, this is overcome. Great impact!

I have used and will use this again its not loud it has a lot of power and will do what you what it to do as long as it is not to big for the job . the impact is very well built with dual hammers. I also do have the 1/2 in drive they are great for everyday use The 3/8 drive feels good when you hold it don't have a lot of vibration when in use. over all it is just a got to have tool in the box
