Cleco CLBA653 Cordless Right Angle Nutrunner 18V

Product Description

The CLECO CLBA653 is an 18-volt cordless right angle nutrunner built for precision fastening in tight or confined spaces where inline tools cannot reach. Rated to 37.1 foot-pounds of torque and equipped with a shut-off clutch, it disengages drive automatically at the preset torque value, reducing the risk of fastener over-torque and joint damage. The 3/8-inch drive chuck accepts standard sockets for a wide range of fastener sizes. Part of the CLECO CellClutch series, this tool is designed for assembly, maintenance, and production environments where repeatable torque accuracy is required. A licensed electrician, millwright, or assembly technician would typically deploy this tool on production lines, mechanical assemblies, or field service work.

The CLBA653 is suited for industrial assembly and MRO applications where cordless mobility and torque control are both priorities. The right angle handle configuration allows access in low-clearance areas such as panel interiors, equipment bays, and structural assemblies. The tool is reversible for both driving and removal operations. It is powered by Milwaukee M18 Red Lithium batteries, which are not included with the tool.

Installation Notes

Installation and operation of this tool should be performed by a qualified technician familiar with torque-critical assembly procedures. Before servicing or adjusting clutch settings, remove the battery pack to prevent unintended activation. Consult the applicable assembly or torque specification documentation for the joint being fastened, as the CLBA653 itself must be configured to the correct preset torque for the application. Follow all applicable workplace safety and tool-handling standards.
