Scaled against the 33 impact wrenches with a 1/2" drive we list, so other sizes aren't in the mix. Not a score: bigger isn't always better for your job.

The verdictOur take

The M18 BIW12 is Milwaukee's compact brushed 1/2in wrench: 240Nm and 1.2kg bare, for general nut running rather than wheel nuts. The FUEL wrenches are the step up for real torque.
