Dear Editor,
The pneumatic impact wrenches we use in our shop make one
heck of a racket. ±he loud noise is more than just annoying-i²S a
health hazard that can damage your heaRIng.
We found a way to cut down the noise by rolling up pieces of
scouRIng pad and putting them in the exhaust ports of the
wrenches. ³t's a simple remedy that won´t hurt the performance of
the wrench. Andµ it costs only pennies.
N¶N 7920·00¸753·5242 got us a pack of ten
6
x 91¹ºin pads» We
cut the pads into smaller pieces that would fit into the impact
wrench.
The ¼/½·in drive wrench needs
t
pads cut to 2 x
3
inches each.
The 1¾¿ºin drive wrench needs two pads cut to Àx3 inches.
The ¼/Á·in drive wrench needs two pads cut to 1¾Â x
3
inches.
