In a workshop environment where you have to deal with large vehicles such as trucks and buses, having the right tools to tackle any jobs will let you save time and get the work finished faster and more effectively.  Thanks to the larger bolt sizes used on commercial vehicles, along with the increased torque required to fasten and unfasten them, a 1 inch impact wrench is pretty much essential.  With these powerful air powered tools you will be able to loosen even the tightest nuts without breaking a sweat, and thanks to the fully controllable torque application, stripping the bolts is not a concern.

Looking like an enlarged drill, an impact wrench is a high torque device that is handheld and used to tighten or loosen nuts.  Perhaps the most common use of the tool is in removing wheels from cars, although they can be used under almost any circumstances where you need a reliable wrench and require something more powerful than just your own strength.

Ingersoll Rand, the leading air tool manufacturer produces a comprehensive range of 1 inch impact wrench packages that are designed to work in the toughest environments without failing you when you need them most. 

Ingersoll Rand manufactures 1 inch impact wrenches in a range of different styles that will allow you to tackle the hardest jobs without having to compromise on the quality of your work or the comfort.  With an innovative selection of different grips available on the 1 inch impact wrench from Ingersoll Rand, you can choose the best tool for your own preferences and needs rather than having to limit yourself to a specific position that can be uncomfortable.

The basic form of the impact wrench includes a handle at the back coupled with an air feed.  The power is generated through a piston system that uses the compressed air feed.  Design features to look out for are an air exhaust that points away from your face and the area where you are working, and a comfortable handle.  Remember that with a 1 inch impact wrench, the tool is heavier than a standard model, and should generally have two handles in order to make it more manageable and convenient when you use it.

The standard shape of the impact wrench features a pistol style shape, although thanks to the additional weight of the tool in 1 inch size, a second handle is added.  These come in a range of different positions, and the one that you need will generally depend on your own preferences, although there are also a few small differences between the different 1 inch impact wrench designs that make them well suited to slightly different jobs.

Probably the most popular style of 1 inch impact wrench features a dead handle grip.  The Ingersoll Rand model can be set up for either left or right handed use, and the front mount
