- FULL-METAL DURABILITY AT COMPOSITE-TOOL WEIGHT — Most lightweight 1-inch impact wrenches reach low weight by switching to composite housings and aluminum motors. The AW-280GS pairs a magnesium-alloy housing with an Airboss-engineered steel motor and Twin-Hammer mechanism, delivering full-metal durability at just 14.3 lbs — weight rivaling composite tools.
- 2,200 FT-LBS NUT-BUSTING TORQUE IN A SHORT-ANVIL PACKAGE — Delivers the same 2,200 ft-lbs maximum torque at 4,500 RPM as the long-anvil AW-280GL, breaking semi-truck lug nuts and trailer hub bolts without giving up nut-busting capability in the shorter-anvil package.
- BALANCED ONE-HAND CONTROL, STEEL MOTOR BUILT TO OUTLAST — Short-anvil head puts the center of gravity closer to the grip for one-hand control. The Airboss-engineered steel motor extends motor life by 100% and overall tool life by 30% versus standard iron-motor competitors.
- INTERNATIONALLY RECOGNIZED DESIGN — Airboss-engineered steel motor recognized with the 2011 INPEX Gold Medal (Pittsburgh), 2011 IENA Silver Medal (Nuremberg), and 2020 German Design Award Nominee — three international honors validating the proprietary motor design behind the AW series.
- SHOP-READY PNEUMATIC POWER — Operates at 90 PSI standard pressure with 1/2 inch NPT air inlet and 1/2 inch (12.7 mm) hose recommended. Air consumption 17.7 CFM (0.5 m³/min). Includes 18-month limited warranty for auto repair and commercial truck shops.
