Air tools or electric power tools???

Many people wonder if using air tools is worth the cost purchasing an air compressor,hoses and the air tools. Why not just get an electric impact wrench or electric drill? Sometimes electric tools are a great choice but there are many reasons why air tools are superior.


Here are a few reasons why the extra cost for air tools is worth it.


1. The option of using air tools in a wet environment. You can't get electrocuted with an air tool. Feel free to drag that air hose through a puddle and stand in it with bare feet. No problem. Click here to see a guy who has one foot in the grave and doesn't know it.

2. Air compressors are a portable power source. You can operate your air tool anywhere you can haul your portable air compressor.

3. Air tools are generally more robust than electrical tools and require much less maintenance..

4. Air tools are far more powerful than electric tools. If you really have some tough lug nuts to loosen, nothing beats a 1/2" Ingersoll Rand Thundergun Impact.
