I am not sure how many torque foot pounds were stated. The impact driver works well with my 300 ft lb 18V Dewalt Impact Driver. This is a really well-made product. A much bigger and stronger adapter than the one from Dewalt. Dewalt only made it through about half of a project. I then replaced it with Milawauke Shock Wave and it was as good as new once I was The Shockwave has been purchased along with another impact driver by me since then.
This is not the case, the bit locks in and can be released by pressing down on the adapter sleeve.
In short, yes. This tool works fine on my 1/2" Milwaukee impact. I have also used it on the detent pin with no problems
The hog ring is compatible with the product. A lot of wobblies unless you seat it to the fullest, in which case there is just a little movement. As far as my project was concerned, it worked great, although there was not a great deal of precision required.

Like I expected, it is of excellent quality. It can however not be used with a 1/2" drive tool that does not have a ball retainer.
Made from high quality steel, this adapter is durable and strong. to have a lot of potential, but it's not yet ready for the I think the first issue is that it's not designed for a Hog Ring Anvil, it's near impossible for you to attach it, and when you do, you'll need a jack hammer to remove it, not to mention that The second issue is that 1/4 inch hex bits may not fit on In the end, I was only able to find one type of product. Despite the fact that adapters are not universal, what are they good for? If you want to use hex bits, you should buy the tool that was specially designed for them. I really wanted to enjoy this tool, but I had to send it back, because I don't find it to be useful. I have read the one-page article and I am fascinated by it I didn't even get that far before I realized that it wasn't what I wanted. Based on review ratings that the adapter fell apart, I figured such things sometimes happen.
It's a one The inch bits require a hex bit adapter in order to be used with our adapter (see pictures). To be two-dimensional, bits must have at least two dimensions The adapter must sit completely inside the wires if they are longer than an inch. Due to its massive size, the adapter won't work well in confined spaces.
Specifically, the following problem exists A hog ring anvil (rather than a detent pin anvil) is featured on an impact wrench I recently purchased. To go along with it, I purchased this adapter. However, I was surprised to discover that this adapter appears to be exclusively designed for use drilled a hole through one face of the 1/2" square drive in addition to carving divots into the inner faces of all four faces. The hog ring anvils are virtually useless with this. It may be beneficial for detent pin anvils, but ineffective for One reviewer pointed out that the adapter seemed wobbly when it was inserted for the first time. Nevertheless, I found that if you push the chair forward even further past the wobble point with enough force, then it sits However, the adapter gets stuck on the sharp front edge of the four divots when you then try to remove it, which meant I had to use tools to pry it off the wrench's anvil once it was removed. Here is what needs to be fixed As a first step in fixing the adapter, I used a Dremel to grind the front and back edges of the four divots in order to remove all sharp edges. I had the same problem as you did. I am now able to utilize my hog ring anvil impact wrench with this adapter, as it can be snapped on and removed with the appropriate amount of hand-force. As a conclusion If you do not wish to perform the grinding modification I performed, I suggest you let me know where you found an adapter that is designed to be used with hog ring anvils, since it seems there are not many options for this type and size of adapter when you search for options.
As far as I can tell, this is the shortest 1/2 square adapter available. 1/4 inch hex shank bit will sink deep inside the quick release locking collar, so there will be a gap between the bottom of the shank and the edge of the half inch end (there's a small hole that can be seen through the gap). A few millimeters from the tip of the tool's 1/2 square drive, the shank of the bit will be only a few millimeters long. It doesn't get any shorter than this. While it's made in China, Milwaukee's build quality looks solid to our eyes as we have come to expect from them. By pulling back on the spring release collar, you can release the 1/4 shank bit once it has been locked in place. It is a bit more expensive than similar brand adapters, but I think it's worth the extra cost. In my experience, I have only come across problems using this adapter on the 1/2 anvils that have hog rings (Makita and Craftsman cordless impact wrenches), so I just thought I'd mention it here anyway in case it happens to you as well.
The 1/2" impact driver I bought is powered by a battery that is 18 volts. Purchasing the impact driver was a requirement because I needed a tool that could do multiple things The adapter has 1/2 drive and 1/4 hex (with a 1/4" hex I was bothered after reading what people had to say about the DeWalt brand of adapter. I was lucky enough to receive a recommendation for this Milwaukee shockwave length of the DeWalt adapter was about 6 inches, and due to the large size, I felt it would make the tool unsteady and difficult There are less than 2" in length on this one (1 7/8" in total). As you said, there is just a bit of wobble, but anytime you add to a power tool to extend it or adapt it, there is going to be a little bit of movement between the It is nice to be able to lock the hex head adapter into place just by pulling back. In addition, I like that I can attach this adapter to my 1/2" driver by either lining up the friction ball with the hole in the adapter, or by lining up the friction ball with the detent in the adapter. While I may be strong and 4'10', I will need a punch to push in the friction ball to get the adapter off my DeWalt if I line up the hole and friction ball on the adapter. I would have purchased an extra one had I used this adapter daily or quite often in my job as a mechanic. If I were using this adapter constantly, I would have purchased an extra one just in case the first If the internal workings or one of the retaining rings wear out, it may lead to a catastrophic failure.
