JimboS1ice Posted February 12, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2016 I did a lot of searching on this subject, and the consensus is that these two terms do not measure the same thing. So a direct comparison just using the numbers is meaningless. I guess I'll just have to get both and compare for myself.No they don't mean the same thing and dewalt is ambiguous on their drill torque ratings in terms of pounds of torque, I found the torque rating someone did on their flagship hammer and it was around the 700 mark, not sure why dewalt does this, if it's less than Milwaukee it's less than Milwaukee no need to be shady about it I still bought the drill lol.JimboSent from my iPad using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dewalt claims that the rating they use is independent of drill RPM, while torque varies with RPM. At least I believe that's what I read. This was a few weeks ago, and I'm surprised I remember that much. Anyway, yeah, I'm sure I'll end up with all of them, lol. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unclebud Posted February 26, 2016 Report Share Posted February 26, 2016 This tool is on my short list. A couple of guys at work have these and they are truly a beast with 1100 ft lb's of torque in reverse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bremon Posted February 28, 2016 Report Share Posted February 28, 2016 These impacts are ridiculously powerful. Mode 2 doesn't care about rust, road grime, or how tight a nut has been tightened...it's coming off. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
