What people talks?
You don’t usually need the added torque of the IR, and you definitely don’t need a tool that works you harder. The lighter weight makes work faster and easier, and the CP is also quieter by around half. I’ve had mine for over 10 years. I wouldn’t have any of the $20-specials out there either. They look like tools, but they’re really just toys. New guys in the shop would invariably chuck them ASAP once they had the $$ for a real wrench. The only “normal” automotive job I’ve seen the CP struggle with is the big CV joint nuts on Hondas … most everything else in my experience was faster and easier. There are easy rebuild kits (that’s how my Dad’s is still in service after 30 years) that will make sure your CP734 is going strong indefinitely. ridenhour
I like this wrench because its not too powerful so its a little easier on the hands, but it has enough power to do pretty much everything the $200-$300 wrenches can do. A lot of IR wrenches vibrate and are very clangy, while CP guns feel stable and the noise is muffled. jr
I purchased this at the recommendation of a friend with the same model. I have a small IR compressor that spits out 5.3 CFM @ 40 psi and less at 90. Most of the wrenches needed more CFM but this one was on the low side. I am very happy to report that it gets the job done for me even with the low CFM. I am not using the gun @ NASCAR but for odd jobs around the house, it works fine. Could it work better with more CFM? Absolutely but if you use it in bursts, it works well. Construction is solid and it feels like a tool that will last for a long while. willr2510
