2. Impact wrench - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impact_wrench

   A 1/2" drive pistol-grip air impact wrench. An impact wrench (also known as an impactor, impact gun, air wrench, air gun, rattle gun, torque gun, windy gun) is a socket wrench power tool designed to deliver high torque output with minimal exertion by the user, by storing energy in a rotating mass, then delivering it suddenly to the output shaft.

3. Power wrench - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_wrench

   A power wrench is type of wrench that is powered by other means than human force. A typical power source is compressed air. There are two main types of power wrenches: impact wrenches and air ratchet wrenches or pneumatic ratchet wrenches. [1]

4. Impact driver - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impact_driver

   An electric impact driver typically delivers less torque and accepts smaller tool bits than an impact wrench. This makes the impact driver more suitable for driving smaller screws in (for example) construction work, while an impact wrench is preferred in situations requiring more torque to drive larger bolts and nuts (such as lug nuts).

5. Socket wrench - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Socket_wrench

   For example, a 1 ⁄ 4-inch to 3 ⁄ 8-inch adapter allows sockets with 1 ⁄ 4-inch drive holes to attach to a 3 ⁄ 8-inch ratchet, and so on. Universal joints are two articulated socket joints (about 1 inch (25 mm) long) combined at a right angle, that allow a bend in the turning axis of the wrench and socket.

6. Pneumatic tool - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pneumatic_tool

   [1] Most pneumatic tools convert the compressed air to work using a pneumatic motor. Compared to electric power tool equivalents, pneumatic tools are safer to run and maintain, without risk of sparks, short-circuiting or electrocution, and have a higher power to weight ratio, allowing a smaller, lighter tool to accomplish the same task ...

7. Impact (mechanics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impact_(mechanics)

   Crane with a pile driver 1 ⁄ 2 in (12.7 mm) drive pistol-grip air impact wrench. A nail is pounded with a series of impacts, each by a single hammer blow. These high velocity impacts overcome the static friction between the nail and the substrate.
