Abstract

An impact tool includes a housing having a motor housing portion and an impact housing portion. The impact housing portion has a front end defining a front end plane. An electric motor is supported in the motor housing, a battery pack is supported by the housing for providing power to the motor, and a drive assembly is supported by the impact housing portion. The drive assembly includes an anvil extending from the front end of the front housing portion with an end defining an anvil end plane. The drive assembly also includes a hammer rotationally and axially movable relative to the anvil for imparting the consecutive rotational impacts upon the anvil, and a spring for biasing the hammer in an axial direction toward the anvil. A distance between the front end plane and the anvil end plane is greater than or equal to 6 inches.
