When a compact 1/2″ impact wrench needs lower vibration without giving up useful breakaway power, the AIRCAT 1058-VXL 1/2″ VIBROTHERM DRIVE Composite Compact Impact Wrench gives technicians a short-body pneumatic tool for tight automotive, fleet, and maintenance work. Its 550 ft-lbs maximum torque supports suspension, brake, bracket, underbody, and shop fastener service, while 750 ft-lbs of loosening torque helps remove tight or corroded bolts before run-down. The 1/2″ square drive fits common 1/2″ impact sockets, and the 9,000 RPM free speed helps keep repetitive removal and installation work moving efficiently.At only 4.40″ long and 2.80 lbs., the 1058-VXL is built for engine compartments, suspension areas, chassis hardware, body shop repairs, and compact machinery spaces where a full-length impact wrench can be difficult to position. The VIBROTHERM DRIVE mechanism (AIRCAT’s patented impact design built to reduce vibration while maintaining impact power) reduces vibration levels by 30% – 40% and increases the life of the mechanism by 50%. AIRCAT’s patented muffler system keeps noise to 85 dBA, giving busy service bays a compact 1/2″ impact with lower noise and controlled handling.Type: VIBROTHERM DRIVE Composite Compact Impact Wrench | Model: 1058-VXL | Drive Size: 1/2″ Square Drive | Free Speed: 9,000 RPM | Bolt Capacity: 9/16″ | Impacts Per Minute: 1,700 IPM | Max Torque: 550 ft-lbs | Loosening Torque: 750 ft-lbs | Weight: 2.80 lbs. | Length: 4.40″ | Air Consumption: 8 CFM | Recommended Hose Size: 3/8″ | Air Inlet: 1/4″ NPT/BSP | Noise Level: 85 dBA | Vibration: 4.3 m/secFeatures:Provides 550 ft-lbs of maximum torque and 750 ft-lbs of loosening torque for compact 1/2″ drive fastening and removal work.VIBROTHERM DRIVE impact wrench mechanism incorporates AIRCAT’s patented impact design.Patented Vibrotherm hammer mechanism reduces vibration levels by 30% – 40% and increases the life of the tool by 50%.Latest patented AIRCAT muffler system provides low noise output at 85 dBA.Patented grip design supports controlled handling during repeated shop and service tasks.Triple injection molding process supports AIRCAT’s distinctive composite body construction.Short 4.40″ body helps the tool fit into restricted service areas where longer impact wrenches are difficult to use.Applications:Automotive service: Removing and installing suspension bolts, brake hardware, engine-bay brackets, underbody fasteners, and compact chassis hardware.Fleet maintenance: Working on vans, pickups, trailers, guards, mounts, and service panels where a compact 1/2″ impact helps maintain socket alignment.Body shops and collision repair: Handling bumper brackets, reinforcement hardware, panel supports, and tight repair areas that need 1/2″ drive capability.Industrial maintenance and MRO: Running down and removing bolts on machinery covers, fixtures, access plates, equipment frames, and repair benches.DIY garage and restoration work: Useful for experienced home mechanics working on rusted hardware, automotive projects, and tight-access repairs with a properly sized air supply.FAQs:Q: What is VIBROTHERM DRIVE on the AIRCAT 1058-VXL?A: VIBROTHERM DRIVE is AIRCAT’s patented impact mechanism design for this compact impact wrench. It is built to reduce vibration levels by 30% – 40% while increasing the life of the mechanism by 50%.Q: How is the 1058-VXL different from the 1056-XL?A: Both are compact 1/2″ drive AIRCAT impact wrenches with 550 ft-lbs maximum torque and 750 ft-lbs loosening torque. The 1058-VXL adds VIBROTHERM DRIVE technology, which focuses on reduced vibration and increased mechanism life.Q: What air hose size should I use with this tool?A: AIRCAT lists a 3/8″ recommended hose size for the 1058-VXL. Using the recommended hose helps maintain air volume so the tool can deliver proper speed and torque under load.Q: Can I use chrome hand sockets with this impact wrench?A: No. Use only impact-rated 1/2″ drive sockets. Chrome hand sockets are not made for repeated impact loads and can crack or fail when used with pneumatic impact tools.Q: Is this tool suitable for lug nuts?A: The 1058-VXL may remove many passenger-vehicle lug nuts when fastener condition and torque requirements are within the tool’s capability. For frequent tire service, larger vehicles, or heavily corroded wheel hardware, compare the job requirement carefully and always complete final tightening with a calibrated torque wrench.AVAILABLE VARIATIONS AND SPECIFICATIONS SKUFree Speed (RPM)Bolt Capacity (in.)Square Drive (in.)Impacts Per MinuteMax Torque (ft-lb)Weight (lbs.)Length (in)Air Cons.
