Snakeguns Rattlegun – Battery Impact Wrench Hot Stick Attachment – SGR-1100
The Rattlegun is a battery powered impact wrench which will allow a properly trained Lineman to safely install and remove bolted connections / hardware by use with a proper-length insulated Hot Stick while working near energized conductors. Due to the presence of energized conductors, the impact wrench must be operated by means of wireless telemetry via a remote control. This remotely located radio linked controller allows the operators to safely control the speed and rotational direction of the impact wrench socket.
The Rattlegun replaces that awkward heavy impact driver with 2 hydraulic hoses, or that manual socket and wrench. Instead, we use state-of-the art technology to tighten and loosen nuts and bolts, including torque nuts. Operate our 1/2-inch battery-powered impact wrench via a remote control that can be mounted on any hot stick.
Using readily available hot sticks found on any lineman’s truck, linemen can upgrade their capabilities, speed, and ease-of-use for all bolted applications. All you need is a shotgun stick, grip-all, or universal pole. Any insulated hot stick with a universal head meets the attachment requirements. Grab a set of 1/2″ drive impact-rated sockets and you’re ready to go!

What Can it do?
How does a Rattlegun make work safer?
Safety Barrier
The remote control unit puts distance between you and the energized lines. It is literally “Action at a Distance,” meaning nuts and bolts can be easily accessed, tightened, and loosened from the “safe” end of the hot line tool.
Ergonomics
The Rattlegun reduces many repetitive motions in construction, maintenance, and storm emergency situations. By getting jobs done faster, it also reduces the chance of back and knee injuries due to repetitive motions. No more ratcheting that stick back and forth to tighten a nut with that swivel-mounted ratchet on the end of the stick!
