In terms of strength and reverse torque the 1/2 drive Milwaukee fuel wont undo these bolts. Whatever that torque is.

impact would be best, 14mm actual.

preferably 3/4 drive, 1 inch?

Bondus? SO? Wright? Proto? What else? Im looking for the strongest 14mm HEX socket, I use them for busting hydraulic cylinders apart. Seeing what else is there? Cheers

2nd gen?

I bought wright sockets impacts, 1/2 drive 1/2 to 1 1/4 and Metric, 13mm to 32 mm. and 3/4 drive 3/4 to 2". Solid well made, I like that they are stamped and not lazser etched. USA made, quality.

Just curious if anyone has used Weicon RLC penetrating oil? My local Napa store has is it and wondering how it compares to the common penetrating/lubricating liquid wrench, PB blaster. etc.

No, Just a 18v. But it depends on how much greasing you do per day. a 4 amp will do a lot of tubes, before recharging. so depending on your needs, a 4, 5, 6 or 9 amp are available. I have 4 amp on my gun and Ive done 6 skidsteers, and two hoe tracks. So far so good. battery life is half, in...

A half decent boning knife is what your after, I have a Henckels, https://www.kitchensmart.ca/products/zwilling-henckels-master-6-boning-knife?utm_medium=cpc&utm_source=googlepla&variant=17173620547&gclid=CjwKEAiA79zDBRCgyf2FgeiY-CESJABzr0BMjigvtrgxV2jUii63ZzZzR5n_PpfhFrUHvnOJ-R87XBoCnLnw_wcB...

And, I might add. Don't be afraid to customize (grind)a socket to fit. Ive cut up and welded many funky looking wrenches and turned down many a socket on a bench grinder to fit. If a company doesn't make it, make it yourself.

I bet they are ratcheting. And I love Wright tools, I have a wrench set in std and metric, I work for myself as a mobile mechanic. 1/2 drive, 3/4, drive, sockets and ratchets. Top quality, best chrome ive seen, art like finish. Tough tools too!

Indeed,

Loading is easy. just a button to bleed. Gets all the grease out. Good stuff.

Well, Yesterday I got a call from a customer who blew his right track off his Hitachi 135. (about 15 ton machine.) So I did my tricks and got the track back over the carrier, then the idler, then it was time to pump up the track. The Milwaukee M18 did a great job, The 4ft hose is great...

A customer blew a track on his 200 Hitachi hoe (on a tall pile of sand...ugly) only a couple of days before I bought the gun, so I haven't used it to snug tracks up yet. But as far as I can tell it seems powerful with half frozen grease on the skidsteers I used it on. Good battery life. But...
