You are at more risk of injury from torque reaction if you are working with:

When working with tools that have slower motors, the risk of injury from torque reaction can increase because these tools may apply torque more gradually, leading to less immediate feedback for the operator. In slower motor tools, the operator might find it challenging to control the tool effectively during high torque situations, especially if the tool is not designed with safety features to mitigate torque reaction.

Typically, torque reaction is a concern in tools that exert a high amount of torque suddenly. Slower tools can also encourage poor handling practices, as users may become complacent, thinking that lower speeds equate to lower risk. This misjudgment can result in the operator being unprepared for unexpected torque reactions when the tool does engage more effectively than anticipated.

In contrast, tools with faster motors may provide a more abrupt but clearer feedback regarding their torque output, allowing operators to brace themselves appropriately. Tools designed specifically for heavy lifting usually have built-in safety features specifically to address torque reaction. Tools with no torque capabilities wouldn't present this issue at all, as they do not exert significant torque forces during operation.
