Aircat Pneumatic Tools 1870-P Super Duty Composite Pistol Grip Impact Wrench | 1900 (ft-lbs) Max Torque | 7500 RPM | 1" Square Drive

When 3/4" drive impact tools are no longer enough for large fastener work, the AIRCAT 1870-P 1" Super Duty Composite Pistol Grip Impact Wrench gives service teams a high-output pneumatic option for fleet, agricultural, heavy equipment, and industrial maintenance jobs. Its 1,900 ft-lbs maximum torque supports large bolt removal and installation on frames, equipment mounts, suspension components, wheel-area hardware, and heavy assemblies, while 2,100 ft-lbs of loosening torque helps break tight or corroded fasteners free before run-down. The 1" square drive fits compatible 1" impact-rated sockets, and the 7,500 RPM free speed helps keep larger fastener service moving efficiently.

The 1870-P is built around AIRCAT's low-weight, impact-resistant housing, giving technicians a powerful 1" pistol-grip impact wrench without moving to a much larger straight-body tool. At 12.95 lbs. and 10.70" long, it offers a strong power-to-weight ratio for high-torque service work. The combined friction-ring and through-hole socket retainers help secure sockets during demanding removal and installation tasks, while the offset side handle design keeps the operator's hand farther from the work area during high-load applications.

Type: Super Duty Composite Pistol Grip Impact Wrench | Model: 1870-P | Drive Size: 1" Square Drive | Free Speed: 7,500 RPM | Bolt Capacity: 1-1/4" | Impacts Per Minute: 1,900 IPM | Max Torque: 1,900 ft-lbs @ 90 PSI | Loosening Torque: 2,100 ft-lbs | Weight: 12.95 lbs. | Length: 10.70" | Air Consumption: 10.5 CFM | Recommended Hose Size: 1/2" | Air Inlet: 1/2" NPT

Features:

• Provides 1,900 ft-lbs of maximum torque and 2,100 ft-lbs of loosening torque for large fastener removal and installation.
• Unmatched power-to-weight ratio helps technicians handle high-torque 1" drive work without moving to a heavier straight-style impact wrench.
• Low weight impact-resistant housing supports regular use in fleet, equipment, agricultural, and industrial service environments.
• Combined friction-ring and through-hole socket retainers help secure compatible 1" drive impact sockets.
• Offset side handle design helps prevent the operator's hand from getting too close to the work area.
• 1/2" recommended air hose and 1/2" NPT air inlet help maintain airflow for high-output pneumatic impact wrench operation.
• Pistol-grip configuration gives technicians a more compact alternative to long-body 1" impact wrench layouts when the application allows.

Applications:

• Fleet and heavy truck maintenance: Removing and installing suspension hardware, frame fasteners, chassis bolts, wheel-area hardware, mounts, guards, and large service components.
• Agricultural equipment service: Working on tractors, implements, service vehicles, frames, hubs, mounts, and large-bolt assemblies that require 1" drive sockets.
• Industrial maintenance and MRO: Running down and removing large fasteners on machinery frames, equipment bases, access plates, fixtures, and plant repair assemblies.
• Heavy equipment repair: Servicing loaders, lifts, construction equipment, shop machinery, support equipment, and large mechanical assemblies where smaller drive tools may be underpowered.
• Bus and large vehicle repair: Handling underbody components, drivetrain supports, suspension assemblies, wheel-area hardware, and service-bay fasteners that call for 1" impact capability.

FAQs:

• Q: What is the AIRCAT 1870-P best used for?
  A: The AIRCAT 1870-P is best used for 1" drive fastening where large bolts require more torque and socket strength than 1/2" or many 3/4" impact wrenches can provide. Common uses include heavy truck service, agricultural equipment repair, industrial maintenance, and large vehicle work.
• Q: What is the difference between maximum torque and loosening torque?
  A: Maximum torque is the tool's headline output rating, while loosening torque is the breakaway force used to remove tightened or stuck fasteners. AIRCAT lists this model at 1,900 ft-lbs maximum torque and 2,100 ft-lbs loosening torque.
• Q: What air hose size should I use with the AIRCAT 1870-P?
  A: AIRCAT lists a 1/2" recommended hose size and a 1/2" NPT air inlet for this model. Using the recommended hose size helps maintain the airflow needed for high-output 1" drive impact wrench operation.
• Q: What do the combined friction-ring and through-hole socket retainers do?
  A: The friction ring helps support quicker socket changes, while the through-hole allows use with appropriate retaining hardware when the job requires a more secure socket connection. This is useful on high-torque 1" drive applications where socket retention is important.
• Q: Can I use smaller drive sockets with this impact wrench?
  A: No. The 1870-P has a 1" square drive and should be used with compatible 1" drive impact-rated sockets. Do not use chrome hand sockets or undersized drive adapters for high-torque impact work.
