Before I even see the results, I know the Snap-On fan boys are going to be crying that the Milwaukee won or either was very close to winning. For the money you spend on the Snap-On, it should be doing 10X better then the M18. Side note: it seems over all the Snap-On tests I have seen on your channel that you are not a fan of the brand. Now I could be wrong, but it is just my opinion. Thanks for sharing this and all the testing you do! You make it easier on people to buy the right tool. For the 2976 to break 2000 when only being rated at 1500 is amazing. Plus if you already have batteries, the tool only is less then $300 compared to the Snap-On $1100+ 1000lbs over spec!!
i do agree with you even though the milwaukee had the new forged battery he should keep it fair and used the 5ah battery that the kit will come with just saying
@@carlosmedrano3549First comment response I read is "You used the wrong battery."
CZcams comments never fail to deliver
@@reginalb124 what just saying why not used the batteries that the kit will come with
@@carlosmedrano3549 That is one way you could compare the tools.
But given that the Milwaukee costs half as much as the Snap-On bare tool ($299 vs $629) or quite a bit less than half as a kit ($499 vs 1,111.95) I cold argue that using the best case battery on the Milwaukee is perfectly fair, since both the price gaps ($330 or $612) give me well more than enough to buy the Forge battery for $199 and still have lots of beer money left over.
There's arguments both ways, but I don't think either using the kit battery or the Forge is the objectively more fair measure.
Thank you for the kind words. I think Snap-on makes some awesome tools, both hand tools and power tools. However, when the price is more than double and you really can't put your finger on why it's priced as such, it makes it really tough to recommend. We love their flank drive stuff and we think the 14.4V impacts with the rocker switches are the bomb. Their 18V impacts used to be an absolute embarassment, but the past two updates have brought them closer to the mark. They also refuse to talk with us on any level about their tools; whereas, we talk with many engineers and product managers with all the other major tool manufacturers. They have a very closed system, including their market strategy with trucks and franchises. There's another discussion about how they leverage the truck/franchise owners and put the weight on them for sales and warranties. For the record, we don't have a problem with Snap-on as a whole. Thanks for watching.
I prefer the Dcf961b for my Ego fastener removal needs.
It only loosened a fastner 100 ft lbs more than the m18. The dewalt is alot bigger, heavier, way more vibration, and only has a 3 year warranty on it. I'd take this mikwaukee all day over the 961
@@markk3948
200 ft lbs more, and that was, after his socket was ruined. And you’re comparing a 5ah 18650 battery vs a 6ah lithium pouch battery.
Throw in the newly released 8ah pouch batteries and watch that 200 lbs difference increase to 600+ lb ft difference.
@@markk3948 dcf961 beats the 1" milwaukee also

No person on this earth can convince me that anything snap on makes is worth their ridiculous prices.
You're not alone, from the comments. Thanks for watching.
as a mechanic you just have to pick and choose but for a diyer snap on doesnt make sense. like a flat rate tech definitely should have some snap on hand tools to make good money. but the power tools are really only worth it for some and even then really only the 14.4v lineup at most and you could definitely make it by with milwaukee.
@@shaunclancey1107 Overpriced tools will never help anyone make money. What the hell is wrong with you!?
Totally agree.
@@Modine. yes it absolutely does. Most company warranties require sending in tools and waiting to get fixed or replaced. Snap on is quick exchange. Hand tools nothing really compares to snap on imo. If I can get the job done faster with a snap on tool and not worry about breaking it, it is absolutely worth the extra price. Like he says you don’t need all snap on but a few tools here and there is 100% worth it in the field
I love me some Snap On, they really do make a lot of fantastic tools. I’ll take my Snap On hand tools over just about anything else, any day of the week. However, their prices on power tools and other electrical and diagnostic equipment are just quite frankly inexcusable. It’s why when I finally retired my very tired Snap On and Matco cordless tools, I replaced them with Milwaukee. Couldn’t be happier overall. That said Snap On does have some really neat cordless tools that I wish Milwaukee would make versions of. The rocker switch compact impacts and screw guns are just so sweet to use, too bad they just cost way too much.
That's what I preach and respect bro!
This was exactly the kind of video I was looking for, very clear, very simple, there are no doubts after watching it. 👍👍
Everytime i had a question about something he answered it as if he could read my mind, top tier tool review man
Glad to hear that we answered your questions. Thanks for watching.
Love the work that goes into researching and creating these videos. Both impressive tools that will wreck 1/2 sockets. However seeing what Milwaukee's m12 3/8 stubby impact does and their m12 high speed ratchet as well, I know where I stand. Thank you again for what you and your team does!
Awesome review brother. Just got my milwaukee 2967-20. Extremely satisfied and happy with it.
would like to see the newest 1/2 and 3/4 Hercules ultra torque
The Snap-on CT9050 is smaller and more of an everyday use tool. It's strong enough! If you already into the Snap-on tools or want to get into this 18v line, it's worth buying and so is there 18v drill.
Regardless of warranty, so far I never had to warranty any Snap-on cordless tools. Milwaukee on the other hand when I had all the Milwaukee tools, I was constantly sending those off for warranty. About a 9-12 day turnaround which isn't bad but very annoying. It's how I ended up buying all Snap-on.
Milwaukee sells more Snap-on tools than the Snap-on marketing department 😁
That's awesome that it's working for you. Snap-on is finally waking up on their 18V impact wrenches. They'd fallen way behind, but they're starting to play catchup now. Thanks for watching.
I have both the CT9080 and the CT9050 and I agree with you. I’m in California, so I don’t have rust belt issues so my more compact 9050 does the job 99% of the time.
I also have Milwaukee 18v and 12v N not happy with their battery engagement. Overall, I’m much happier with Snap on and Mac
Neat thing about Milwaukee is, even with the kit, if you know where to look, and if any sales crop up, you can get it for $399, with the 2x 5.0Ah batteries and the standard dual charger combo.
Milwaukee, the tools once known to belong in the plumbing and electrical industry, are now making a name for themselves in the automotive field. Even DeWalt is giving it a shot in the automotive world, despite being well known as contractor and construction tools. Most tire techs use Milwaukee anyway, and they're gravitating away from air.😄
Which is dumb, long live Air Nation!
Great episode I think you should compare it to the Dewalt 961 the ultimate beast
Used the Milwaukee on its first truck wheel seal job a couple of days ago, truly amazing. I got 1"'s it will keep up with.
That is awesome! Thanks for sharing.
I WENT WITH THE DEWALT 20V MAX Cordless Impact Wrench (DCF961B) ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, CAN'T WAIT FOR IT TO REACH !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Kind of a skewed test don't you think? You talked about pricing of the kits and bare tool, but you included the forge battery on the Milwaukee. Which d does not come with the kit and has to be bought seperate. The Milwaukee with a 5.0 ah battery won't hit the same performance metrics, and honestly, most people are just going to buy the kit with the battery and not invest in another $200 dollar battery.
Ok buddy… add the cost of a $200 battery and charger, add that to the $300 bare tool, and it’s STILL well over $100 cheaper than snap on.
I’m not an advocate for Snapon impacts at all but I can’t help but notice how he uses one hand on the Snapon on the last test.
Oh Yeah! Vintage Tim Johnson. Big Impacts, Big Sockets, Big bolts . . . let her rip.
Hey Tim, can we get a retest of the Ridgid Octane with those monster bolts.
Here's an idea, bust out the Milwaukee Gen 1, the Ridgid Octane, and these two, and take them all to failure. That way we can see just how far high torque cordless impacts have come.
Everything about the Milwaukee is better, plain and simple. Not to mention the whole battery platform doesn’t put you in a corner on tools you can use. Grab a couple batteries from work before the weekend and build a deck at home with your other Milwaukee tools, can’t say the same for snap on.
Milwaukee doesn’t have a kit that comes with 2 forge batteries. They do have a kit that comes with 1. The cheapest I seen it was $499.00.
Milwaukee for the Win. Way cheaper more power, better warranty, and smaller. Use the 2967 every day and yes I do have the DCf961. Having both of those is still cheaper than the Snap-On
I have both of these impacts i prefer my Milwaukee i use them everyday in automotive
Great review.
Glad you enjoyed it
I’ve got a yellow high torque, too!
Never really needed to use it. I have an older RV which has a lot of rust. I assume something will come up that needs a high torque. I’ve gotten away so far with just the DeWalt 12v 3/8” :)
I’ve got some suspension work coming up, I think, so we’ll see if the discount Ryobi is good enough or if I have to get an M18.
I have the 1/2 gen 1 for almost 10 years and still do everything I want it to do and if things get little difficult for him. I also have the 1in. Milwaukee impact wrench to help he's older and smaller brother 👍
That's really the cordless impact wrench that really broke the mould and made the mechanics believe it was a legit replacement of pneumatic. That woke up the industry, and now every major player has a strong 1/2" high torque impact wrench. Thanks for watching.
What is he using to tighten those I want that.
Results are skued because the six ah forge battery puts out the same watts as a 12 ah high output red lithium Milwaukee battery. Also on the Milwaukee mode 4 is high and called nut busting mode delivers all of the torque in reverse and once the fastener is loose it slows the rpms down as to not sling the fastener.
Did you de-grease the studs?
Love my Milwaukee!
Great review mate, can I suggest that's better not to wear you're apple watch when impacting since it will affect the connections on your circuit board like the batteries boards on the impacts :)
Thank you very much. I do understand the concern for the watch, but if I buy a watch, then I'm going to wear it. Thanks for watching.
I really think snap on’s bread and butter is in hand tools. They fell behind with the delay to go brushless. The impact isn’t bad by any means but when someone’s offering 2.5x the warranty, half the cost, and a tool that will do the same or better and it’s available down at your local Home Depot then you’re not even competing anymore.
Oddly, to me my hand tools are the ones I’ll clean up and I care about how they look at the end of the day when I lock up my box. I don’t care as much about my power tools. They get way too dirty and beat up to care. Snap on tools are nice and should look nice. So are hand tools. Snap on also makes really great hand tools.
I would love to see the snap on ct9038 review. I think that’s the new 18v 3/8 stubby.
We'll be doing that soon too. ;) Thanks for watching.
Milwaukee!!!
i have a customer with this new snap-off. I have used a dewalt dcf900 twice to get bolts off his snap-off wouldn't touch
We don't doubt that. That DeWalt is a strong contender.
Im such a big snapon guy but i run millwakee. I wish snap on would make better power tools. Though i love their 14.4 tools
So for the price of a Milwaukee 1/2 inch impact wrench. You can get a snap on 1/2 inch ratchet and maybe a 1/4 inch ratchet.
I prefer ridgid or Milwaukee, snap on cost to much
All in all, when my Milwaukee 1/2 dies I’m probably gonna be buying the Ridgid 3/4…
It is gonna look great with all of my 14.4 Snapon tools, and the ridiculous amount of Milwaukee tools I own
I think if snapon offered a better warranty on there power tools like 6 or 7 years for tool and 5yrs for battery it might be justified on price like hilti is with power tools. Otherwise not worth the price/hassle.
Dewalt 961.
Should of tried the dewalt too 🙃
We will add that one too. We have it in the shop. Thanks for watching.
You should buy a wright or proto socket won't have to replace it near as often
Most impact sockets are made from the same material, which is softer than chrome sockets (chrome vanadium). All the impact sockets wear like these. We've used Proto, Milwaukee, Sunex, DeWalt, they all do it. Thanks for watching.
@@Shoptoolreviews very true but some are soft them others, like snap on sockets are very soft and the drive end deforms rather quickly. Some uses better quality steel and have better heat treatments. I'm guessing there are way more vintage proto sockets in better shape then several year old sunex and Milwaukees(not saying sunex and Milwaukee don't make quality impact sockets) Thank you for the video and the response
Dewalt
Yes, the lates DeWalt High Torque impact wrench is definitely a beast. Thanks for watching.
Where does the DCF961 rank?
Probably at the top. Thanks for watching.
LoL I think I would rather use the Ryobi high torque than a snap on because the snap on warranty is pretty bad and the price is 2 to 3 times more than it should be for what you’re getting
RYOBI definitely stepped up their game with their last edition of their High Torque impact wrench. Thanks for watching.
Milwaukee is stronger cheaper and better warranty why would you go snap on
Simply for the name I’d guess.
I thought snap on had a lifetime warranty?
@@Gavensdailytoolsandjobs their power tools only have a 2 year I believe
Not to mention way better looking
Only thing snap on has over Milwaukee is that the store comes to you no matter where you are once a week
Gotta throw im the 961 in there
We will do that very soon. Thanks for watching.
Milwaukee you wanna throw a 3/4 anvil in this so I can buy it? Imagine the top two brands 1/2 outperform their 3/4 for a whole year. Who's it goina be, red or yellow?
U keep saying if you want this much power you should be using a 3/4.. well unfortunately that’s not an option as of now.. at least not for Milwaukee.. the Milwaukee 3/4 is still based on the gen2 1/2 high torque.. the new m18 1/2 is stronger than not only the m18 3/4 it’s stronger than the m18 1 inch one handed.. Milwaukee has some updating to do on some of its bigger tools
You do have a point, and we hope to see some updates soon. However, the 3/4" and 1" impacts hit very hard and many times they will break fasteners loose quicker than a 1/2". Thanks for watching.
makita xgt high torque when 😜
If this video isn’t a prime example of how snap on tools are overpriced then I don’t know what is.
The m18 should have came with 2 6.0 hos
I don't think you can get a kit with 2 6.0s. Thanks for watching.
@Shoptoolreviews yeah I know lol I was just saying the kit should be 6.0s not 5.0s :) I always watch you are one of my favorites
Thanks for all the hard work you do
You have the number transposed on your video title. It's *2967* not 2976!
We fixed it. Thanks for the heads up.
Well this video sure helped me make up my mind, the DeWALT it is. 😆
Looks like the Snap-On ad is counterproductive
Not sure which one you are referring to. Thanks for watching.
So what you’re saying is that I should go to a 3/4 anvil for 2000 ftlbs +, gotcha…lol! Poor sockets man, I tell you what!
I have the 9080 when it first came out but its not strong then i got the 9050 and its stronger than the 9080
The CT9080 is pretty new, only a few months old, and it's much stronger than the CT9050. Thanks for watching.
@@Shoptoolreviews so this is a newer 9080 than the old one
Very cool video but he’s just not really mean anything in a real world they’re really bulky just give me an air impact wrench, and I am a happy camper
Buying Snap on is like buying EVs, it's over priced, little benefits and it's gay. Overall it make no sense in buying snap on when other companies does it better.
We can't speak to the gender or sexual persuasion, but we do agree there are other companies doing it as good or better. Thanks for watching.
It would be a more fair test if you would've used the regular 5.0 battery that the Milwaukee comes with because the price is waaaay different with a Forge battery and the Snap On doesn't have an equivalent of a Forge battery! One Forge battery is $250 people. But I know how this channel loves to suck up to Milwaukee.
1000 cycles on a battery that costs more than the milwuakee impact seems like a very small amount of uses. You're paying for a brand that used to have good warranties but now just makes shit and is only willing to back up their products for 2 years
Neither
DeWalt all day
The only reason the Milwaukee won is that battery.
No, not really. You do bring up a good point, we should have run the 5Ah until it peaked, then moved to the Forge 6.0. Thanks for watching.
@@Shoptoolreviews Milwaukee said it added 100 ft lbs?
The height of the Milwaukee will almost never be a good thing
If you are a tech that worries about cost you need to make a career change.
Snap on overpriced overhyped as usual
We understand how you can think that. Thanks for watching.
Title fix
Fixed.
@@Shoptoolreviews I kept searching from the title and kept finding the pipeline reel haha
Snap-off is overpriced Trash I literally sold all my snap-off for Milwaukee Just because things are high priced don't mean it's the best. All you fanbois keep bying the truck tools.
Snap-on too ugly
Right looks cheap like a 20 year old tool
@@markk3948 Like brushed motors
lol snap on is a thing of the past I work in a Mercedes-Benz dealership, and all the senior master techs use Milwaukee
Snap is overpriced and overrated. Milwaukee power tools have a longer warranty. And their sockets and wrenches are lifetime warranty so you don’t have to deal with tool trucks.
At this point the only thing I would buy from snap is maybe a toolbox, but even that may be pushing it ……😂😂😂
