I vote for the IR too, have 3 of them, 2 -1/2" and 1- 3/4". Love them. Used to repair heavy eq. undercarriage, would use the 1/2 to remove up to the 5/8 bolts (would take out larger bolts but it was faster with the bigger guns), use it 10 hours a day 5 days a week. The 1/2" I have are 244's cant remember what my 3/4 is, maybe 344? Regular dozer track has 37 links/pads, 4 bolts per pad, 2 tracks, thats just shy of 300 bolts, and thats only taking them out, then they had to go back in. Thats almost 600 bolts at least once per day, usually did a couple sets a day. Same deal with excavator tracks, except those only have usually 52 links/pads per track, and you only used the 1/2 to run the bolts in before torquing them with a 1 1/2 electric impact. Thats still over 400 bolts on one set. Had the same impacts for years, just rebuilt and replaced parts when they needed them. Kept rebuild kits on hand. Usually the shaft where the socket goes on would break in half or break the hammers. Sometimes I would break the air motor shaft or the hammer cage, those are the only parts not available separately. Then its time for a new one. But we were running 195 psi of air and running the tools to death, lol. I love my Ingersoll Rand air tools.

Today's Featured Article - Fasteners: The Nuts and Bolts of Nuts and Bolts - by Curtis Von Fange. The nuts and bolts of nuts and bolts is an interesting and essential piece of knowledge that applies to our older tractors. An improperly torqued capscrew on an engine head or a shear bolt that is too hard on the driving shaft of a bushog can create havoc and make an expensive and uncalled for repair. Let’s examine the purpose and design of these fasteners in order to ensure their proper use. Fasteners are probably one of the aspects of mechanics that is given the least amount of thought. ...
