Chicago Pneumatic Battery Torque Wrench | CP8609 PACK 36V 2.5AH | 185 - 665 (ft-lbs) Torque Range | 1" Square Drive

Built for controlled wheel and large-fastener tightening without compressed-air setup, the Chicago Pneumatic CP8609 PACK 36V 2.5AH Battery Torque Wrench delivers a 185 - 665 ft-lbs torque range with ±4% accuracy. Its 1" square drive fits large industrial socket sets, while the included S-type reaction bar braces the tool against a fixed point so torque can be applied in a controlled, repeatable way.

This CP8609 is the stand-alone model in the CP86 Series, giving technicians digital torque adjustment directly from the tool's OLED screen without connected reporting requirements. The 36V 2.5Ah lithium-ion battery platform keeps the wrench mobile around fleet service bays, truck shops, transit maintenance areas, and field equipment. With 15 RPM free speed and hard and soft joint capability, it supports rigid metal-to-metal tightening as well as joints with some compression from washers, spacers, or similar components.

Features:

• Stand-alone CP8609 configuration provides digital torque adjustment directly from the tool without connected reporting requirements.
• High precision ±4% torque accuracy helps technicians tighten large fasteners within a defined target range.
• Included S-type reaction bar provides a fixed reaction point during controlled torque application.
• Double-trigger starting system includes a second start button for safer, more deliberate activation during high-torque work.
• OLED digital screen provides intuitive torque setup and operating feedback directly from the wrench.
• Shut-off-current control helps stop the tool when the programmed torque target is reached.
• Automatic release reaction arm helps avoid the tool staying blocked on the application after the tightening cycle.
• CP Care eligible, with calibration available as part of the preventive maintenance package or as a standalone service.

Kit Includes:

• 1 CP8609 dual-trigger battery torque wrench
• 1 S-type reaction bar
• 2 batteries
• 1 battery charger
• 1 charger cable
• 1 plastic case

Applications:

• Truck and fleet maintenance - controlled wheel and chassis fastening where repeatable final torque is required.
• Bus and transit service - cordless 1" drive tightening for large vehicle hardware in busy maintenance bays.
• Industrial maintenance and MRO - torque-controlled fastening on machinery frames, fixtures, guards, and bolted equipment.
• Heavy equipment service - large-fastener tightening where a battery-powered torque wrench is more practical than pneumatic setup.
• Field service crews - mobile torque work in locations where compressed air is unavailable, inconvenient, or slower to deploy.

FAQs:

• Q: Does the CP8609 PACK include a reaction bar?
  A: Yes. This pack includes one S-type reaction bar. The reaction bar must be positioned against a suitable reaction point before tightening so the tool can manage torque reaction safely and consistently.
• Q: What does the stand-alone version mean?
  A: The stand-alone version provides digital torque adjustment at the tool, but it does not include connected CPLinQ reporting, Connected Quality functions, or Torque Check features. Choose C, CQ, or TC versions when those connected workflow functions are required.
• Q: Does this pack include batteries and a charger?
  A: Yes. The CP8609 PACK includes the tool, S-type reaction bar, 2 batteries, 1 battery charger, 1 charger cable, and 1 plastic case.
• Q: Is the CP8609 an impact wrench?
  A: No. This is a battery torque wrench for controlled tightening. It is used when target torque and repeatability matter more than impact-style breakaway force.
• Q: What is the difference between torque range and nominal working torque?
  A: The full torque range is 185 - 665 ft-lbs, while the nominal working range is 240 - 530 ft-lbs. Use the nominal range for routine tightening selection and reserve the maximum rating for applications that call for it within manufacturer guidance.
