VESSEL impact driver No.240001

Before discovering this Vessel impact driver, I was unaware of Vessel tools. My collection includes a variety from Craftsman to the lines offered by Lowe's and Home Depot, as well as my father's old tools. While all are decent, none have felt as well-crafted as this one, perhaps with the exception of Snap-on. The weight, fit, finish, and even the included bits impressed me. Using this impact tool was an incredible experience; it loosened a stubborn screw on my Suzuki with the first strike. I was astounded. Although another driver might have achieved the same result, I have my doubts. The included JIS bits gripped as if I had applied super glue to the screw head. I immediately began searching for more Vessel products upon unpacking this tool and even purchased a set of JIS Phillips impact screwdrivers that same day. They, too, are remarkable. I regret not discovering Vessel sooner. Now, I'm eager to buy anything they make. I had no intention of purchasing more tools before this, but this impact driver has proven its worth. I now highly recommend Vessel tools. This driver is worth every penny and more.

Great tool

I needed another one of these and I'm glad I went with this one. I have many other Vessel products and have been very satisfied with every one so far. It looks great and it has a very smooth action. I expect this hand impact will outlast me. It would have been nice to have a case for it, but that's not a huge deal. I got this one mainly to use on stuck bolts where it's a 1/2" drive.

This Vessel impact driver is built like a tank and extremely high-quality! Japanese quality at its finest. I highly recommend this if you want the best of the best.

Great quality. Comfortable handle.

Stuck brake rotor screws? Use this and beat the crap out of it and wham, not stuck anymore. Very heavy handle and transfers the weight well. As easy as can be. Just place the driver and whack away. Not stuck anymore. Works as it should. 10/10 for when you need it.Have used this more times than I’d like to admit and it has never skipped a beat.

Ordered this on Oct 29th, 2024 and finally got the opportunity to use it on Jan 5th, 2025 for brake rotor screws. Only two hits with a hammer and got the screw out with ease! This unit is equipped with 1/4" hex to fit the included Philips and flathead bits, or one can take the adapter off and put a 1/2" socket (I think?) onto the end. The quality of this tool is immaculate. I think my only very small complaint is that this tool smells weird when brand new? Does anyone else think this....?

Solid construction, a grip on it that both makes it stay in your hand while hitting with a hammer as well as providing a bit of overstrike protection, and made in Japan if that's a requirement for you.It also comes in a very interesting package that you can reuse to keep it and the bits together if you want. A solid choice for those pesky brake rotor screws and other applications.
