Has anybody seen/heard of a protective boot being made for DeWalt’s new brushless impact wrenches? The tool can only live through so much.

Can’t find one any were! May try one from ingersal rand or one of them? Maybe it’ll fit close? Or cut it and epoxie back together? That sux that there isn’t one any where. You would think Dewalts main web site would have them too. [emoji107] [emoji13] [emoji22] [emoji36] [emoji35]

Well I guess I’ll just hold the warranty to their 6ft drop rating[emoji19]

I cant say ive ever seen one,maybe try one from another manufacture or something. To be honest id be surprised if they made these for cordless tools,depending on design on the motor vents,you dont wanna block those.

I guess I look at it slightly differently. I have seen the 18 volt tools that managed to survive being blown up in IED explosions in Iraq (literally laying on the ground after a truck was hit). Pick them up put a battery in them and they run. I think a few drops won’t hurt them too bad.

These same tools, batteries and chargers were used at temperatures that rarely dropped into the upper charging limit for DeWALT, but somehow worked.

I think it’s for their older model, though…

im gonna take the chance and order it because the tools Look identical. Some re-badge engineering going on here.
