My air impact wrench is a cheap 250 foot lb max rated one so that would mean that my 18v impact driver is at least 125 foot lb (enough to loosen up my car lugs)…. though I don’t quite understand the engineering… the spring there. Could be less could be more. Though the weight alone means something.

Anyways… there you go.
