Good presentation. I was just this week standing in a Home Depot trying to get someone, anyone to tell me something about impact tools. After about a half hour, I left. This video is quite timely and now I know I will buy the Milwaukee 1/2 inch anvil medium weight impact WRENCH! Thank you!
That adapter is nice to have as a back up in your kit or for someone that can't afford both tools. But if you are using a impact driver as a daily tool don't think buying a imapact wrench and this adapter is the ultimate solution because its not. Impact drivers don't hit as hard but have higher rpm's for driving screws faster. This is a good adapter for people that work on cars and don't really need a dedicated driver but may want the option to remove the occasional screws with a power tool instead of a screwdriver.
Many newer stubby impact wrenches have three speed/torque settings and variable triggers. Once you have driven a few screws you will get the feel of the torque and power so over driving any screws can be avoided.
Thats the answer if you say it to an beginner. To the a lil experienced guys with an education completed for example, they already have the feeling for things.. i guess..
I used the Dewalt version on my 1/2 sub compact Dewalt for a few months and recent picked up the new dcf850 and I can say the 850 is a beast but the dcf923 with the adapter will still run in most screws just as fast. Some smaller shorter screws the 850 beats the 923 by a lot but for the most part it’s a good experience. Although I do go straight to the smaller lighter and faster spinning 850 first now so I really think it depends on the use case and which impact drivers/wrenchs you’re comparing
Well yesterday i use my ryobi 3/8 impact wrench, whit the milwakee 3/8 to 1/ 4 quick load adapter…. I repair 2 chairs, put like 4 hangers and a couple things more, its the ultimate solution… i can change my quad and cars tyres, do other power stuff too… and its really a good ítem, but if u work and make money of this, u have to buy the two, the driver and the wrench… and side a rotary hammer
been using this adapter for a few years on my Ridgid Sub-Compact...drill a few screws when needed, and can break a few bolts without going back to the rig...love this adapter
That's better than turning an impact driver into a wrench, like many of us have done. Mainly because a driver is usually weaker than a wrench, and it's better to have something stronger in case you need it.
Great tip! Thanks to your vid I just bought the Makita 1/2” sq to 1/4” hex adaptor along with a 33pc 1/4” hex Makita screw and drill bit set to pair with my Milwaukee Mid Torque Gen2. You just saved me $300 from not buying an impact driver and drill!
I just wanted to add one more comment for others benefit another house fire in lost my husband of 27 years and after sleeping on the ground in a tent for over a year I decided to try and rebuild on the property and found out real quick how much I didn't know and if any of you have ever walked into Lowe's or Home Depots or any of the big companies and ask for advice you already know that the first thing they do is direct you to the most expensive thing they can and don't really tell you nothing except for this is what you want and so that left me high and dry quite often since I have found your site which is very well spoken I now am confident and beginning to build a small little place to call my home again which I have gained from your sights you have three very important factors and your continuous with them number one you check out the product and you put it out there straightforward without trying to drag it into a 3-hour video that tells you about one minute information which a lot of sites do to you make it a point to explain it and detail it as well as review it and you give a price approximate which is a big deal if you're on very limited income and want to do the right thing with the right tool and with your tips suggestions and the visual demonstrations and honesty I feel completely confident I know exactly what I need when I walk in to the store or start a project for all these qualities above I thank you once more and when I finish I will send you a pic just so you guys can see that you made a difference thank you kindly stay safe & Jesus keep you close
man I wish I found out about this earlier in life haha, I just did a job where I had to remove/reinstall 200 t40 torx deck bolts at a marina to run an electrical line. Most of those t40's broke loose ok but some were too strong for my Ridgid Octane driver even with an Octane battery. If I had that adapter I might have been able to use my mid torque impact wrench to break those bolts loose. Either that or break the t40 bits haha. Either way it was an extreme pain when a screw wouldn't come out and I had to skip that board and work around it. Thanks for this great advice, I think I'm going to get one myself!
Unfortunately I discovered impact drivers before I determined I needed an impact wrench. I did buy the wrench later, too, though -- the 1/2in Ridgid Octane impact wrench. But you are spot on, Clint. I could've saved some significant $$$ if I hadn't done it "in the wrong order."
Yeah my stubby has more speed control than majority of drill drivers out there; love the auto drive function to prevent me from destroying things with the cam out
Hay brother went to Home Depot today picked up the Milwaukee M12 brushless fuel 3/8 impact wrench I ended up paying $50 tool only because I brought a friend of mine he's in a motorcycle club and his friend purchased the Husky 60 gallon stand-up air compressor for his shop I think I said to you yesterday Sarah asking $250 regular price almost $700 if I wanted it I could have got it for $150. My friend paid 250 plus tax and say hook me up with the impact wrench very impressed can't wait to use it.
My ryobi impact wrench came with an adapter to make it into a driver. Tried to drive a screw and it snapped it off right away when it started impacting. The wrenches hit different. They have heavier springs and anvils. Probably works nice on the smaller impact wrenches like what you used. I like using my impact drivers as a impact wrench with the socket adapters. But never the impact wrench as a driver.
That's a great idea. Never thought of that. I never thought they have an adapter. That's cool . I'm getting one of those. Thanks for the video. You have a nice n healthy NEW YEAR .🎉🎉🥳🥳🥳
You could tell your friend to get Freaky. The Bosch Freak has the ability to take 1/4in bits and 1/2in sockets. Lowe's has the HD version on sale for $99. They have the older version at $89 but it's not as powerful so it's worth the extra $10.
You are the man!! Why has no one mentioned this before? This adapter all you need is your impact wrench and you already got the driver and typically save $150 or more by not having to buy a second tool good job keep up the good work 👍
@@bradtyson works well for years. People like you said the same as Bosch and Hilti introduced SDS or Bosch and Fein introduced Starlock. Or as Bosch introduced Xlock while Makita now released there first optional Xlock Grinders.
However, if you are already invested in a brand and don't want another battery line to deal with, getting the impact wrench and this accessory makes sense. For the weekend warrior who is just starting out with not much money, though, the Bosch makes very good sense.
You know it’s funny about a year ago I got a Chinese knock off Makita half-inch impact it has that already built on the anvil it came in handy a couple times already great video though
Impact wrench only has rotary impacts. Impact driver has rotary and axial impacts. The axial impact is what keeps the philips screw bits not jumping out of the head.
Or you can just buy the Bosch Freak and it’s already made that way. Oh, and the Macheeta fakie impacts on Amazon tend to have the hex and 1/2” anvil already. I like the adapter for the Milwaukee wrenches. That’s what’s going on.
Bought the Milwaukee version about a year or so ago. Does come in handy if you don't feel like having two tools, or braking hex to square adapters. Have a 3/8 as well.
I love it! Except one thing... I’ve been doing this forever with a reducer and a quarter inch mag socket 😂😂😂 And I mean on my air impacts so it’s been a while that I’ve been doing this.
Nice accessorie I have the Milwaukee version of these i have the 3/8 and the 1/2 models that run the 1/4 bits they work great nice find @ToolReviewZone
I bought these. Found them too deep for 25mm bits. Also using them hard the bits would get stuck inside. Bought the DeWalt adapter in the end. Mush better. Quick insert on handed. Can still use 25mm bits and still get them out. Bits don't get jammed. Maybe have a look at the DeWalt for an upgrade. Yes its more expensive and you only get one. One is all you need.
True I have the original freak idh 182 it just doesn't have the power as good as an impact driver but is an impact wrench it only has 137 foot pounds as an impact wrench if they're able to come out with one that has 300 foot pounds yeah
Not arguing against that but for $5 you can get a 1/4" hex to 1/4-3/8-1/2" square drive adapter. If Milwaukee had their stubby M12 out ages ago, I'd have taken this video's suggestion.
The Bosch freak isn't very powerful though and I wonder if it has anything to do with that dual purpose anvil. A ½" anvil with enough material removed to use a ¼" bit isn't very strong anymore and with an M12 Stubby impact being able to produce 400+ ft.lbs of torque, the anvil has to be pretty damn strong.
Going to be most useful on a stubby low torque impact wrench, otherwise, you’re doing to overpower it. Even then,the extra length and weight might not make it practical for many users. But, for someone primarily using it as an impact wrench, and has a mid-torque with multiple speed/torque settings, or has a low-torque, I can see it working as a light use impact driver.
I have the M12 impact driver and I have the M12 stubby I can pull out to do this if I run into something the M12 driver can't do. Which I haven't run into yet. Also I have the 6.0 M12 battery so that helps. I got a $3 adapter to go to 1/4 hex from 3/8 square for the stubby from Menards. Basically I plan to never or barely ever use the stubby for screws but nice to have in case I need it. .
I put one of these on an old impact gun. I use it occasionally for odd things at home. It’s not anything special but it’s versatile enough to justify the few dollars I spent on it. At some point I will probably replace it with a M-12 1/4” drive impact driver.
Even though an impact is SLOWER than a driver, the wrench will definitely sink the 4 inch T40 lag screw faster than a driver will. A lot of swingssets/junglegyms use hundreds of those enourmous T40 lags
Hi, this is an excellent adapter, I used it on my 3/8 Bauer and the bit locked up in the adapter! I used pliers to get it out! Idk maybe operator trouble lol, It’s a sharp adapter I just have bad luck lol,
Thanks for the video. I always appreciate your videos. As far as Impact drivers vs. wrenches go, I am afraid I would be over torquing the fasteners. Not a huge problem in new construction, just get another screw, but for OEM parts it worries me. NOTE: I am a DIY/Hobby man. My opinions are my own. Lol
I actually did this before. main advantage is its overpowered for any driving you throw at it. especially when driving lag bolts. just use quality screws though. because its gonna snap cheap chinese screws.
I would and am going to use this idea lol I accidentally bought an impact wrench. But after looking into it, my specific impact wrench is pretty low torque compared to a lot of them, so I think it'll work pretty well, albeit it a tad slower maybe than an an impact driver. Cool tip
They are years old, I had the first one 6 years ago when they first came out, it was model idh182 it was just known as their hybrid impact, then was later renamed with the next gen, there is 3gens now, and the newest is $99 kit with 1800 in-lbs @toolreviewzone
Saw one of these on sale in Canada at our store called Princess Auto of late. Why I am here. Seeing if they are legit. Glad to see they are. Thanks! Bought a makita small 1/2" wrench since it went on sale, for taking machines apart on the farm or changing tires. Seems handy and wanted to make it more handy. If something is really fucked it'll have to be by my garage anyway so then I can break out the 3/4" air wrench if shit isn't going to move🤣. So figured why not. Glad to see this little wrench is going to be worked like a dog now putting tin on buildings and everything else without having to shell out 300 -500 more for an impact driver
I've got a 3/8 one too. The salesman tried to get me to go the other way and buy the bit driver and put socket adaptors in that. He actually got pissed that I went the way I did.

you beat me too this video. I bought this 1/4 to 1/2 socket a week ago. still need to make a video on it.
I'm ready to watch some Man Caver Tool Vidd on it👊
I got my milwaukee m18 compact a milwaukee adapter. Plan the whole time, works awesome!!
That's better than turning an impact driver into a wrench, like many of us have done. Mainly because a driver is usually weaker than a wrench, and it's better to have something stronger in case you need it.
The adapter he is showing is awesome for the m12 stubby wrench.
You can just manually brake lose those that are harder. Impact drivers way much less than wrenches

The Bosch Freak is a hybrid that does both out of the box. The newer brushless model is plenty powerful enough

@@black_n5492 yes definitely
@@black_n5492 most brushless impact drivers have like 1800 or more inch pounds of torque which equates to about 150 ft lbs of torque
With practice you’ll get a feel for it.
@@black_n5492no you just have to be careful, just hit it until it’s about to impact and stop

Cool video brother that Milwaukee m12 1/2 inch stubby is perfect. You enough power for lug nuts also.

No kidding. Wow u amaze me with your genius
Definitely comes in the clutch lol. I like how you put links in the description too good channel.
Bosch impacts comes with that integrated already without the need of that adaptor.
What a 3/8” or 1/2” anvil impact wrench with a 1/4” hex cut out the centre of the anvil. Good luck with that😂

I literally bought two of these two days ago before watching this 🥰
I absolutely loved this video...Thanks
Awesome, thanks Danny!!!!
I KNEW IT!!!!
those damn makita gnomes killed your compact ridgid radio
DAMN IT
Hahahaha, I always had a suspicion Sean hahahaha 😂
been using 1/4” sockets to run a bit with impact in pinch since the beginning of using tools.
You know it’s funny about a year ago I got a Chinese knock off Makita half-inch impact it has that already built on the anvil it came in handy a couple times already great video though
Impact wrench only has rotary impacts. Impact driver has rotary and axial impacts. The axial impact is what keeps the philips screw bits not jumping out of the head.

Great video bro :) but i think the difference is that wobble but impact driver its more stable :) but wrench to driver its working
Thank you for the information
I've been using 1 for about 12 years
Damn, that’s some nice lighting and backdrop. Stepping up that production quality. 👍
Haha, thabka brother. Still a work in progress, but definitely trying to step it up👊👊👊👊
Got the bosch freak
This nice but every new impact should have an anvil like the Bosh Freak. Best of both worlds.
True I have the original freak idh 182 it just doesn't have the power as good as an impact driver but is an impact wrench it only has 137 foot pounds as an impact wrench if they're able to come out with one that has 300 foot pounds yeah

I want the Milwaukee gen 4 impact driver with a 3/8 square drive and the Milwaukee 3/8 to1/4 hex adapter. The gen4 broke away 550 ft lbs in a test.
U can also get sds to normal hex bit

Check out the Bosch freak it does both on same tip

Awesome 👊
Love the idea!!!!
Thx for the tip! I got it!❤
I learned about these thru manufacturing ambulances. I have apex brand and northern tool 3/8 to 1/4 to use with air butterfly impact wrench.
I put one of these on an old impact gun. I use it occasionally for odd things at home. It’s not anything special but it’s versatile enough to justify the few dollars I spent on it. At some point I will probably replace it with a M-12 1/4” drive impact driver.
Yeah I bought that. Will expand the tools capabilities for a small cost. Will see how they hold up to our abuse! Thanks for the info
I bought this same thing but for my 3/8ths impact
Even though an impact is SLOWER than a driver, the wrench will definitely sink the 4 inch T40 lag screw faster than a driver will. A lot of swingssets/junglegyms use hundreds of those enourmous T40 lags

You should do a tool zone review competition of the new milwaukee impact wrench vs the gen 3 impact

That’s definitely real nice like. If you use a magnet bit BAM awesomeness
Haha, 100% grade A brother 👊
Nice idea, thanks for sharing.
Saw one of these on sale in Canada at our store called Princess Auto of late. Why I am here. Seeing if they are legit. Glad to see they are. Thanks! Bought a makita small 1/2" wrench since it went on sale, for taking machines apart on the farm or changing tires. Seems handy and wanted to make it more handy. If something is really fucked it'll have to be by my garage anyway so then I can break out the 3/4" air wrench if shit isn't going to move🤣. So figured why not. Glad to see this little wrench is going to be worked like a dog now putting tin on buildings and everything else without having to shell out 300 -500 more for an impact driver
Definitely a help saving money. Real nice like. Happy New Year
Happy new year Steven!!!
LIKE ADDING PADDLES TO A SPEED BOAT! but the idea is good!
My Ryobi impact wrench came with that accessory. I never used it anyway. 😃
I'm currently waiting for the P262 to come out. It's going to be my first impact wrench. I have a driver already but I'm totally getting this bit!
Will this adapter work on a friction ring??
Can you buy impact wrench and put 1/4 adapter instead? Wrech has more torque btw. What are the drawback
You need to try the Bosch GDX 210c ! ( or the *Bosch freak* ;) )
I have the adapters for the 3/8" and 1/2" impact wrenches and a 7/16 hex to 1/2" square. Smeesh that like button. 👀👉🏽 👍🏽
Thanks for the command SMEEESH Jason!!!!!
I've got a 3/8 one too. The salesman tried to get me to go the other way and buy the bit driver and put socket adaptors in that. He actually got pissed that I went the way I did.
They do have the Bosch 2 in 1 drill you know
Just ordered a DeWalt 889 (Like it better then the 899) half inch. Think I ordered the GQR halfway through your video :)
Great tool, Love the video, Happy New year!
Thanks Perry!!! Happy New Year!!!!
