Air Ratchet for £50?

D1nhs · 3 Oct 2007

Hello guys, i need an air ratchet to fix my scooter, seen one on the Argos website for £50 anyone know if these are any good?

Or do i need to spend 100s to get a decent one? Just want to use it to take off my wheels etc

Thanks

Have a look at Northern tools (google for it). They have good quality stuff which is cheap

Socket & ratchet?!

I heard of a 12v impact driver that looks like an air gun, at Argos, which is surprisingly good at a low price. Ill see if i can find the review (on another club site). What brand name is the one you're looking at?

Yeah thats what i was looking for!

You think these 12v are any good? Surely a normal plug in one would be better? Seems a bit to good to be true?

With the air ones i guess i need a seperate air compressor?

Thanks for you help dude

Seen this too, i have a bosch blue 18v hammer drill whats the difference? Can a cordless drill be used for the same thing?

JohnD · 3 Oct 2007

the main difference is that a drill is for drilling holes, and an impact wrench is for undoing nuts

A cordless drill isn't suitable for frying eggs, either.

Ah i googled the differences thanks.

about the eggs....
