Cheng Liu Posted November 5, 2015 Report Share Posted November 5, 2015 Is there any difference between the Ridgid 18v impact wrench and the newer Ryobi one? They look almost exactly the same except for the color and the Ridgid one is $20 more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northern Rebel Posted November 6, 2015 Report Share Posted November 6, 2015 That newest Ridgid x5 impact driver has 2,500 in-lbs of torque and the newest Ryobi impact driver has 1,600 in-lbs of torque. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DR99 Posted November 6, 2015 Report Share Posted November 6, 2015 Well with Ridgid ou get the lifetime LSA and 25 more foot pounds of torque. The Ryobi has less torque but has 3 speeds to chose from. They are pretty much the same for the most part except for some features. I would buy the wrench that fits your battery platform. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was asking about the impact wrench not impact driver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thus far I feel like the Ryobi one is a better deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DR99 Posted November 17, 2015 Report Share Posted November 17, 2015 The Ryobi probably makes the most sense Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
