## Summary

A 1/2 inch hog-ring impact wrench with 1,626 Nm fastening and 2,372 Nm breakaway torque. An automatic power boost frees seized nuts, and Precision Wrench mode guards against over-tightening.

## Why this one

- **2,372 Nm breakaway**: Frees rusted and over-tightened bolts that would stall smaller wrenches.
- **Automatic power boost**: Raises output after four seconds of impacting on stubborn fasteners.
- **Precision Wrench mode**: Slows down on run-down to reduce over-tightening and run-off.
- **1/2" hog ring**: Quick socket changes by hand.

## The story

### For the nuts nobody else can shift

Steel erectors, plant fitters and groundworks crews regularly meet rusted anchor bolts, track bolts and oversized fasteners. The DCF961 is aimed squarely at them, with 1,626 Nm of fastening torque and 2,372 Nm available to crack nuts loose, all from a single 18V battery rather than an air line or a heavy corded wrench.

### Power when it counts, control when it matters

After four seconds of continuous impacting the tool automatically raises its output to help free stubborn fasteners. A four-mode selector switches speed ranges, and the Precision Wrench setting slows the tool as a nut runs down to limit over-torquing and run-off. The LED can be dimmed or switched off.

### Fits the 18V XR fleet

It runs on any 18V XR battery, and a POWERSTACK or high-capacity pack gives the best runtime under heavy load. The hog-ring anvil makes socket changes quick, and the bare tool can be ordered in a TSTAK box or as a kit with two POWERSTACK batteries.
