scaffold impact wrench porn

Nice. Wouldn't want one my self for scaffolding but I've got a couple of dewalt ones from my roofing days. Handy tools to have. :bigsmile:
 
Yeah I just got a spanner bud, not that Im knocking the wrenches prob try one out one day but Im fancying the wrench from snap on to add to my collection in the garage, so prob take it out on site one day and create an Impact haha
 
Nce 1. I know a couple of lads who swear by them & I guess on their type of work (street/site works) they are pretty quick. It'd be no good to me on this place though, I can barely get my ratchet in on some of the jobs. :p
 
Stripped a job this morning and the socket kept coming off the driver, do they do one for just the socket?:eek:

Contrary to popular belief amongst my oh so educated brethren, who may Know the square route of ef all but not the size of a sole pad, I too am using the makita but whilst there is a bit for a pin I never got one and the guy who sold me the sockets told me he could fit one as long as I didn't want to take the socket off but I also wanted to use it for the Apollo bolts with the smaller head. I may have to bite the bullet and get it fitted and use the wee mates hilti for the bolts.
 
Don't think you can it's an internal pin.:(
 
It was mint to start but as you already know even the tightest holes loosen after a bit of action.;)

the pin comes with a rubber ring to hold it in place. you can change sockets in less than 10 seconds. will try and locate them for you.

Jakdan, how do you get a reducer when they are both 1/2 inch drive? Too many moving parts for a scaff.

G-scaff, I would appreciate what you can do.

makita's own sockets, or the deltec 21mm deep, which we use, have the groove around the pin hole for the rubber ring to sit in. google images "21mm sockets" and you will see a few on there with the above mentioned groove. hope this helps, deltec have a website but the ring and pin may have to be ordered separately. probably worth a phone call
