I know my 36v Dewalt could show that hilti whats up (hands down)... but it wouldn't compete with the 36v hilti system

those are just too darn expensive for me

Panel Lift
-not just for drywall- used to lift an I beam in place, to lift a portico roof in place before columns were set, used to push/ straighten a girder. It's basically a big jack. Back saver!

I was NOT beating on cordless.........ALL I own, at this point, is cordless! (I do not do any Heavy Work these days. That what Subs are for!)

I just find it hilarious that they have created a "NEW" measuring system to make them sound "Tough". Never, never have I heard of "Inch/pounds" of Torque. The REAL measurement is Newton/Meters or Foot/Pounds.

Marketing is a wondrous endeavor!

Because it is new to you
does not make it new.
I have a 3/8" torque wrench that's
over 35 years old and marked in
inch pounds.
I've read a lot of specs in
inch pounds over the years.
Inch pounds have been in use
as long as foot pounds.

Re: Tools That Changed Your Life


Try Googling Inch/Pound and see how many "specs" use it!

The ONLY thing that utilizes it IS Torque Wrenches!!!!

Re: Tools That Changed Your Life


Find me a conversion site or a wiki entry that supports In/Lb. It is archaic. As useful today as a Dram (An Apothecary Measurement as well as Liquor Apportioning).

All I am saying is that the marketing Gurus use a BIG number to sound BIG.

Sort of like Internet speeds......

kBps versus kbps. There is a factor of 8 between the two!

Hey! Do not let disagreements of OTHER posts effect your responses. Tis not Healthy!

Install nut as follows: If a thin washer is used under the nut, do not let the inner diameter of the washer become caught on the bolt retaining element. False torque readings and damage to the hardware can result. (1) Torque nut to the minimum applicable torque. Check that no axial looseness exists in bolt-nut stackup. CHECK THAT MINIMUM TORQUE OF 10 INCH-POUNDS IS REQUIRED TO ROTATE BOLT-NUT STACKUP. Correct low rotation torque or axial looseness by adding a washer under nut, repeat torquing. (2) Install cotter pin if nut castellations are aligned with pin hole. If castellations are not in line with pin hole, tighten nut as required for alignment. Install cotter pin. Do not exceed maximum allowable torque. NOTE Abrupt increases in torque required to tighten nut is an indication of bottomed thread or jammed washer.

There is no contest here.
Nothing for me to win.
You on the other hand might learn
a bit here, if you were not so sure
that you already know it all.

Re: Tools That Changed Your Life


You will soon grow into the shoes you wear.

Face it PAL. Inch/Pounds went out the window BEFORE you or I were born. As a matter.........It was NEVER a real measurement!

Again.

Show me some REAL tangible websites that explain, support, utilize, convert, or even apply this system to real-World, modern-day applications.

You can not do it.

Anyhow......................If you back track to my ORIGINAL post, you will see that I ADMIT that I have never heard this term prior to this day. I asked more questions so I may become more "well versed" in this field.

So far NO ONE has been able to supply any pertinent info. And you are not adding to the cause. Just being Myopic.
