Would this thing work at all, for things such as removing lug nuts, with a 6 gallon pancake compressor? Max PSI for my compressor is 150.

when I would use my pancake compressor with a 1/2 impact it was not a problem. I think it I would get 4 or 5 lug nuts be for it would kick on.

I use one at work. It's the perfect size to get brake chambers off of truck trailers. Lots of torque, but it will smash your hand if you limp wrist it.

Has anyone got experience with their 1057? Even smaller yet rated the same for torque as the 1055.

Used mine Saturday on hot water heater anode rods and 3/4 ton and 1 ton brake jobs. It is very small and light. So far so good.

Thank you. Was just thinking it’s even shorter than the 1055, why not hold out for it if it performs as well as the 1055. Appreciate the input
Cheers

I used mine this weekend to rotate some tires. It probably worked better than I thought it would. My 6 gallon compressor will do 150psi and I set the regulator to 90psi. Like you said, I was able to remove several lugs before the compressor would kick in. It certainly seemed faster than removing/installing them by hand.
