Hey Andrew,
I use the Bosch HTH181-01 18V. It has 500 ft lb or 677 nm of torque. Had it for about 2 years and use it up north for concrete bolts and shed builds.
All our 1/4" rattlers are bosch too and they all cop some pretty severe treatment.
We ran Makitas but now all our cordless gear is pretty much Bosch.
Andy you may be better using a mobile oxy set to blow the old bolts off,,
in fact, you may not be able to undo the old bolts depending on wear,
much easier on the new gun just doing them up,,
They get re-used until unsercvicable Pedro;););););)Quote:

OXY is only a last chance option,fairly dangerous as they can explode and shoot off when oxy cut,not good in a dry paddock or roadside;);)

Last week I purchased an 18 volt Hitachi (1/2" drive) rattle gun skin (bare without battery) as I already have a couple of their cordless drills with Lith Ion 4 AH batteries.
I rang around and the price varied from $203 to over $300.
They also have a model with a brushless motor available now, however the price is higher.
Bunnings have the Ryobi skins out for $219, 1/2" drive 260 nm.
Cheers, Mick.
Just bought the Milwaukee 18v one, 610nm, will let you know how it goes when it turns up. Bought it as a bare tool as I already have batteries, $206 brand new delivered:)

These Hi-torque rattleguns,would be way overkill for general work wouldnt they????
Perfect for my grader bolts but not a huge more usefull to me.
I cab get the Bosch with 2 3AH batteries/charger/carrycase for $730 delivered.$200 more to include a hammer drill.
Im wondering if Im better getting the Hitachi Brushless impact wrench(250nm) with a brushless hammerdrill for $649 delivered.More usable at home;););)
Thoughts please.
Andrew
Some of them have that much torque you will not only be able to change the bolts on the blade, but turn the grader engine over if the battery is flat!
Cheers, Mick.

The Bosch has a variable speed trigger just like a cordless drill, makes it a bit more versatile.
Makes wheel changes real quick and using it as a spare engine for the Disco, I reckon a battery could get me about 100 metres up the road....

Chatted to our spanner man today.
He has Hitachi,he said that the high outputs would only be usefull on small jobs if it was VAIRIABLE SPEED.
