Yes, that is what I have. Different brand, almost identical torque specs..
Amazing that the price for the 1 inch tool is nearly same as the 1/2 inch
drive tool. Most everything I have 1 inch is way more money..

That's what I was looking at when I ran across its baby brother, which I
thought would be more interesting for most of those on the list.

Very handy tool, once you train yourself to use it properly.
I have the industrial version of it. Input and output is 1 inch drive, and
I use it to remove lugs on the bus and the semi tractors and trailers.
Torque on the bus lugs is 425 psi, which presents challenges. Three axle
bus, with inner and outer lug nuts on the dual drive wheels.. makes a "lot
of lug nuts".
I have 1 inch air impact wrenches, however, wheel changes actually go
faster by breaking loose the lugs first with the 1 inch torque multiplier.

That's why I said "removal" and not "tightening".

That's why I said I was sure it could be used for something besides
lug nut removal.

How about lug nut shearing?

Seriously, that looks like the tool for the front crank bolt on an OM60x engine.
