Built for controlled wheel and heavy-fastener tightening without an air line, the Chicago Pneumatic CP8609-BT PACK 36V 2.5AH Battery Torque Wrench delivers a 220-665 ft-lbs / 300-900 Nm torque tightening range in a 1" square drive cordless platform. The eBlueTork design uses shut-off-current control, meaning the tool electronically stops once the selected torque target is reached. With ±4% torque scatter, 15 RPM free speed, and a blade reaction arm included, this tool is built for technicians who need controlled tightening on large wheel and chassis fasteners while maintaining cordless mobility around trucks, buses, trailers, and fleet equipment.
This CP8609-BT pack includes the single-trigger blade version of the tool, two 36V lithium-ion batteries, a battery charger, charger cable, and plastic case. The digital adjustment system and OLED tool screen support on-tool setup, while CPLinQ app compatibility gives operators another way to handle tool settings and usage workflows. Its 36V 2.5Ah battery platform, compact battery design, and automatic release reaction arm help make high-torque tightening more practical in mobile service, tire service, and heavy-duty maintenance environments where compressed air access is not always convenient.

FAQs:
- Q: What torque range does the CP8609-BT cover?
A: The CP8609-BT covers 220-665 ft-lbs / 300-900 Nm for tightening. This range is suited for large fasteners such as heavy vehicle wheel and chassis applications when the required torque falls within the tool's rating. - Q: What does "BT" mean in CP8609-BT?
A: In this listing, CP8609-BT refers to the blade reaction arm configuration with one trigger. The manufacturer identifies this SKU as a 1" battery torque wrench with blade reaction arm and single-trigger setup. - Q: What is included in the CP8609-BT pack?
A: The pack includes one CP8609-BT single-trigger tool, two batteries, one battery charger, one charger cable, and one plastic case. - Q: Is this the same as an impact wrench?
A: No. The CP8609-BT is a battery torque wrench with electronic shut-off-current control for controlled tightening. It is intended for torque-controlled fastening, not impact-style bolt breaking or general impact wrench use. - Q: What sockets fit this tool?
A: The CP8609-BT uses a 1" square drive. Use compatible 1" drive sockets and accessories that match the fastener, drive size, and torque requirements of the application.
