What they say

Hide

Impact driver versus impact wrench, which one do you actually need? Let's get after it. These two might look similar, but they're built for two completely different jobs. Internally, they're roughly the same. They both have the hammer, anvil, and spring internals in them. This one's prioritized for speed and driving screws into wood. The impact wrench prioritizes torque over speed.
