Features and benefits

Chicago Pneumatic, since 1901 a quality leader in high-performance air tools, offers the CP7732, an ultra-compact and powerful impact wrench designed for difficult to work in confined spaces. At only 4.4" long, this stubby powerhouse is ideal for transmission, engine and brake work.

Small yet powerful, the CP7732 1/2" stubby impact offers an excellent power-to-weight/size ratio. With 450 ft/lbs of torque, and weighing only 2.86 lbs., this addition to the Chicago Pneumatic product line can easily remove or tighten fasteners in the most difficult to reach applications.

A unique feature of the CP7732 is the ability to quickly change tool orientation for either right- or left-handed use. This user-friendly feature complements the single-handed trigger which offers three power settings in both forward and reverse. The Jumbo Hammer impact mechanism provides both exceptional power and durability at 9,000 rpm. The steel and aluminum construction of the CP7732 provides ultimate tool durability.

Smaller than a user's fist, the CP7732 can fit virtually anywhere a hand can. This tool allows technicians to work in tight spaces that are otherwise unreachable with a standard 1/2" or even 3/8" impact wrench.

Application

General repair work, especially in hard to reach areas like transmission, engine  and brake work.

Origin

With numerous confined areas typically only accessible by an under powered ratchet or difficult to use hand tool, there was a need for a durable and powerful tool that can reach these restricted areas The CP7732 now allows a technician to access these areas with enough power to remove virtually any fastener. Only 4.4” long, this stubby impact provides a powerful 450 ft/lbs of removal torque. The CP7732 is a great addition to round out any tool box.  For those who prefer a smaller anvil, the CP7731 3/8” drive will be available in August.

Chicago Pneumatic focuses its efforts on unique tooling which not only provides the quality and durability expected by the industry, but also the incorporation of advanced ergonomic features in the tool design. Due to the already small nature of the “Stubby,” weight, size and balance allow for easy handling. The rigid handle provides a secure grip from virtually any angle, and the fingertip controls provide easy single-handed operation. The CP7732 can be quickly configured for either right-or left-hand operation to help suite the user or application.
