Mini Air Impact Wrench Straight 3/8" | WS-301W

The WS-301W is a mini air impact wrench in a straight (inline) body configuration — built for fastening in confined spaces where a standard pistol-grip impact wrench is too bulky to maneuver. The 3/8" square drive handles the majority of fasteners encountered in automotive, assembly, and maintenance work, while the straight body lets you drive into recessed areas, narrow channels, and engine bay corners that a conventional wrench can't reach.

Straight Body Advantage

The inline design keeps the tool's profile narrow and low, making it significantly more effective than pistol-grip models in tight access situations — between frame rails, inside enclosures, or along panel edges where the grip of a standard impact wrench would collide with surrounding structures.

Key Features

  • 3/8" square drive — handles standard automotive and industrial fasteners
  • Straight (inline) body — access tight spaces a pistol-grip model can't reach
  • Compact and lightweight for reduced fatigue in extended use
  • Pneumatic power for consistent torque output

Applications

Automotive assembly and repair in tight areas, engine bay fastening, panel and frame work, production line assembly, maintenance in confined access points
