Torque wrench.

Post by payaya »

If anyone is in he market for a torque wrench get the makita btw450. Bloody animal it is. It will undo any even the crown nut on the front axel. Doesn't even make the wrench sweat!!

Can give you a video demo if need be :) makes doing sh*t a lot easier.

Think you mean an Impact Wrench lol!

How much did you pay for it? Where from? I've been looking at getting a new cordless drill, was looking at the Makita range and thinking an impact wrench would be a nice addition to the track toolbox :D

Impact wrench! Haha.

Got it for $450 for the btw450, two batteries and Aussie charger from the USA. Here you are looking at a lot more than that.

Also got a btl063 for 200 which is handy for tight spaces.

Ahhh, okay.
Thought it may have just been an actual stores website.

Nah in Aussie sites you are looking at 700-800 for the btw450 and over 300 tool only for the btl063.
