Which impact Mg325 or CT8810?

[ianguilly]

I have a mg325 that has been a good impact to me, it is my go to impact (unless a really stubborn bolt) but I wouldn't mind having a cordless for my weekend JY runs and home fixes. I looked on SO website, they are rated the same in torque, but is the ct8810 as every bit as good as the mg325 or better. Please don't recommend other brands I'm fine and happy with snap on.

We have both in the shop i work at. 8810 is a beast, but the mg325 is a touch stronger in my opinion.

IMO the mg325 is way stronger than the 8810. Not even in the same league

Sounds like you got your answer... thread closed!

Hm 2 answers aren't gonna help. I will add I already have a mg725 impact, so is a smaller air impact really needed.

I own and use both daily and I can tell you with absolute certainty that even though the specs say otherwise the MG325 is quite a bit stronger than the CT8810.

The CT8810 is stronger than any other 3/8" cordless impact I've ever used so if cordless is a requirement then get it. Power is great. Runtime is awesome. Its light weight and comfortable to use. But it won't out *** an MG325

I have 2 MG325s and a CT4410 3/8" cordless. I am selling both the MGs as the cordless does everything I need here at the house. I only work on cars as a hobby or for my own maintenance needs. I also have a CT6850 1/2" drive cordless when I need a lot more power. The cordless stuff works so well I don't need or want to mess with the air driven tools anymore.

The 8810 I have used once at a friends shop. It is quite more powerful than the 4410, but is noticeably less powerful than the MG325.

the mg is stronger but is not cordless and the trigger is not as easily manipulated. if you want a cordless than get it.

I prefer cordless but that MG will fit a lot of places an 8810 won't.

Sounds like you have your mind made up to me.
