Mighty and compact 1/2" impact

from Lincoln Nebraksa
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product was great! Typical Dewalt power. Flys through lug nuts and tough bolts. Love the compactness. Love the light selecting function. A little iffy on the button selectors seems like they could wear out over time. All in all still a great tool!
I would recommend this to a friend!

DCF891 Mid-range Impact wrench
on January 2, 2023
Posted by: Cody91
from Fort Worth, Texas
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used the DCF891 1/2” mid range impact wrench to rotate my tires on my F250. It loosened the lugs in mode 2 with no issue at all and plenty of power to spare. There are 4 modes total, screw and then 1-3. This is an awesome tool to have for larger jobs where more torque is needed. I plan on using this on an upcoming job where I will need to install some Simpson 1/2”x8” concrete lag bolts and don’t expect it to have any issue driving them all the way in. This impact wrench has quite a bit of torque for just the mid-range unit, and the weight and size are just right. Overall a great tool!

Love this impact wrench

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this impact wrench. I had to replace the mower blades on my ride on and they were frozen. This tool handled the bolts with ease, no stripping. One of my other projects is an old Craftsman table saw that I inherited. The impact wrench worked flawlessly to remove the bolts. I enjoyed the 3 speeds as well. It allowed for better control when tightening bolts. The impact wrench felt very comfortable and well balanced when using it.

Plenty of power

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used this tool when I was changing the breaks on my truck. Plenty of torque to break free the lug nuts. It’s even small enough to fit into fairly small places such as behind the calipers. Fit great in my hand and doesn’t weigh too much.

Torque, Power, and Easy Handling, a Must-Have Tool
on December 28, 2022
Posted by: 59ona64
from Phoenix, AZ
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Wow! This is a FANTASTIC tool!
Torque, power even with small batteries, and easy handling, this is a must-have tool for any tow truck, law enforcement, service vehicle, road trip vehicle, and any person who is prepared to help others.
Torque on torque on torque, this makes wheel lugs easy to remove, so much so that I nearly did all my vehicles just because it was so fun.
I used a small battery to keep weight down, but I tried it with a monster battery just because I could. The 2.0 ah battery I used is over five years old, and it drove this tool just fine and kept the weight down.
This impact wrench needs to be standard-issue for any first responder, tow truck driver, roadside assistance tech, prepared individual, etc. This lives in my vehicle full-time now, with a set of impact sockets for the main lug nut sizes. It will come with us in the family vehicle when we road trip from AZ to MT and back.
With as easy as it was to pull the lug nuts off my regular light vehicle, I have no doubt it would work on my International medium duty truck.
I’ve wanted this tool for a long time–last year I had to change the tire on my box trailer that had been parked in a friend’s field for a year. He grabbed his DeWALT ½” impact and made quick work of the lug nuts and got me out of there for a tire replacement in about two minutes. I was blown away, especially because I’m no slouch with a crossbar. I had no idea I NEEDED one of these until I saw an older version in action. This new mid-range impact is much smaller than his older unit, and easier to handle. This is the perfect impact wrench for most of us.

Variety of features.
on December 20, 2022
Posted by: Brandon L
from Winchester, KY
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The 1/2 inch impact wrench is very nice. It has several great features. Primarily the various settings. You can switch between 3 speed settings as well as a precision wrench mode. These settings all feature a variable speed as well as difference in operation when driving fasteners in FWD vs removing them in REV. Speeds and torque are lowered in forward to prevent overtightening vs higher speeds and torques in REV to break bolts free. The precision wrench mode offers other features like pausing between impacts to better prevent overtightening in FWD and lowers speed in reverse when the fastener is loose to prevent it from flying off when it comes free. On top of all that, it has the standard LED light on the front with variable intensity settings to illuminate the work area and can be ran on either the standard 20V battery or the flex volt battery. I've already had people trying to purchase it from me and I've had to turn them down several times now.
So far I've used it for maintenance on my lawn mower, removing and replacing wheels and well as pulling of blades for resharpening and re-installing. The precision tightening mode was nice for reinstallation to avoid over tightening and snapping bolts. The LED light also helped when reinstalling the blades and illuminated the underneath of the mower very well. Only issue so far is just usage in l really confined areas but that appears to be standard across the board so not a deal breaker by any means.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] coming from the old 18 volt DW059 1/2" impact wrench ,this one fits in hand so nice and well balanced compacted .. i like went to the trigger switch instead of a rocker . great variety of settings in great placement to flip throw.. the light is a great addition to these tools and in a helpful location . then to the jobs it can take on ,used for tire removal and has no problems breaking lugs lose. so versatile when that tire needs to be fixed or any other job that pops up .. far as getting socket on is smooth and holds well, removal is not a struggle . when in a remote location having this impact knowing you will complete your task . cant go wrong with this setup will fit my needs and will always be putting to the test .
