5Works Well When Using the Correct Operating Pressure
By RoadiJeff
I just bought my first air compressor and several accessories this past week. I chose this AIRCAT ACR802 ratchet because several reviews commented on its power (knuckle buster if not careful, can break standard sockets, etc.).I did a brake job on my car yesterday and used a Chicago Pneumatic CP734H impact ratchet to remove the lugnuts. It did a wonderful job. When it came to removing the brake calipers I tried the AIRCAT with the regulator set at 90 psi on my 15-gallon Dewalt D55168 compressor. It didn't loosen the bolts. I increased the setting to 100 psi and it still didn't budge them. The manual says to not run it above 90 psi or the tool life will be shortened so I put it back to 90 and used a breaker bar on the bolts.Maybe I need to invest in a 1/2-inch drive impact ratchet for these really tight bolts but I had higher hopes for the AIRCAT. It is rated at 70 ft-lbs working torque and I don't think those caliper bolts were that tight. I'll probably keep the AIRCAT for medium/light duty use but it appears that I need more horsepower in my air tool collection.Edit: Although I had the STATIC pressure set at 90 psi a co-worker suggested that I check the OPEhttps://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiGJNqrlOFoUkstxcJCw82hB5B36BTbqFQxqKZ9Akv9u4aBVwa6An6WdjRIhMH31rIQs14CGCgxUpkNIgCz8xcSNt-1zJ6Jozy24sktenbYhHYX77rQn0q7Y-Ji7-brXB75R9GqAAZiJeo/s1600/rating+4.png pressure after I wrote this review. With a free tool rental from AutoZone and $4 worth of fittings from Home Depot I connected a pressure gauge next to the AIRCAT with a T-fitting and ran it. I think discovered the reason that it initially felt underpowered. Although the static pressure was set at 90 psi, the working pressure dropped to 50 psi with the tool running. That *might* have made a difference.I had to set the regulator to 147 psi in order to get 90 psi operating pressure out to the tool through a total of 78 ft of 3/8-inch ID hose. Although I haven't used the AIRCAT to remove any bolts since the change I can tell the difference in the faster speed and I am confident that it will have all the power to do the work that I bought it for.

5Powerful, Quiet, well designed.
By jlboygenius
The description is right, this thing is QUIET. I've used ones in a shop and a friend's craftsman, this is MUCH quieter. The on/off CHEWW noise that all air ratchet's make is normal loudness, but the running noise is very quiet.Has a nice button on the handle to control the power, you don't have to worry about putting it down on the switch and having it turn on.Very powerful and easy to use.

4Love it!
By Ryan D. Parker
I am a backyard mechanic type that uses this tool around 2x a month. It is quite, but no where near silent. Has great torque and is comfy to use all day long! I would buy this again since the IR one is almost double the price... Now off to find a 1/2 gun!
