My air powered impact wrench is supposed to deliver 240 ft-lbs of torque
at 100psi. I just looked at a 20v DeWalt (DCF889M2) that said "400 ft
lbs maximum torque" in the specs.
...but maybe it's a matter of how creative they are at measuring torque.
Are you looking for an actual impact wrench like an auto mechanic
would use? Or an impact driver? We use a DeWalt 20V impact driver
for driving lags at installs, it’s a very useful tool. But if you are
doing the equivalent of lug nuts or rusted exhaust clamps, you would
need something huskier.

Any suggestions on something you have had good success with? We are
retrofitting a lot of towers and some of the sector bolts are pretty
stuck. Yes, we can cut them off, but we are hoping that there is a
more “elogent solution” to QUICKLY get the bolts off. Even if with an
impact wrench, they break, then it still solves the problem.
What do you think guys?
