Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Technician A is correct. Impact wrenches are designed to apply high torque output with minimum force from the user, making them ideal for removing stubborn fasteners such as wheel lug nuts or axle nuts.

Technician B is incorrect. Not all sockets are suitable for use with an impact wrench. Impact sockets are specifically designed to withstand the high torque output of an impact wrench, and using regular sockets may cause them to crack or break under the stress.
