Chicago Pneumatic Delivers Control, Power, and Cordless Portability in New Impact Wrench

June 25, 2018

Rugged, powerful, durable — and available now — the new CP8849 1/2” cordless impact wrench is the first-ever with two shut-off positions and a whopping 850 ft. lbs (1150 Nm) of torque. The CP8849 combines Chicago Pneumatic’s expertise in air impact wrenches with the convenience and mobility of battery power.

We’re very proud to offer the vehicle service industry the first true ½” cordless impact wrench in its power class with two shut-off positions. With a choice of slow mode and fast mode, the CP8849 puts the operator in full control of tightening operations and proactively guides critical parameters such as torque to ensure that everything is done properly.

Chicago Pneumatic engineers designed the CP8849 to eliminate the need for hand tightening and the risk of over-tightening bolts in tire changing and other vehicle service operations. The CP8849 slow mode setting allows it to be used as a ‘snugging’ tool, replicating the subtle pressure and precision of hand tightening. Fast mode secures bolts at speed and with absolute confidence, shutting off just before maximum torque is reached. Consider the CP8849 essential equipment in general maintenance on light and heavy vehicles, tire changing on passenger vehicles, SUVs and light pickup trucks, and MRO applications.

Operation is efficient, easy, and comfortable with smart features including lighted power selection on the rear of the tool, Chicago Pneumatic’s Side2Side forward and reverse selection setting, thermoplastic rubber grips for sure handling, and four (4) front LED lights for better vision in dark spaces. The CP8849 is offered as a bare tool, or bundled with two (2) 20V 4 Ah or two (2) 20V 6 Ah batteries, charger, and canvas carry case. The CP8849-2 is available with a 2” extended anvil.
