What happens here

Tony Gumina from Milwaukee Tool introduces the new M12 FUEL Sub-Compact Impact Wrenches, available in both 1/4 inch and 3/8 inch anvil sizes. These tools are praised for their lightweight design (half a pound lighter than competitors) and compact size, offering up to 2.3 inches shorter length for best underhood access. The 1/4 inch model delivers 100 ft-lbs of nut-busting torque, while the 3/8 inch model provides 225 ft-lbs. A demonstration is conducted pitting a Milwaukee impact wrench against a generic unbranded impact wrench on tightly secured bolts, showing Milwaukee's superior speed and performance. The generic tool gets stuck while the Milwaukee effortlessly loosens the bolts.

Goal: Understand the power and compact design of Milwaukee's new impact wrenches.
