Shear wrench tool

1. A shear wrench tool comprising an electric motor having a motor output shaft, a transmission having a plurality of planetary gear stages and an output section having first and second output sleeves the first output sleeve being shaped for mating with a nut and the second output sleeve being shaped for mating with a tip of a bolt to be sheared, wherein the electric motor is configured to provide torque via the transmission to the output section for causing the first and second output sleeves to be rotated in opposite directions relative to each other in use, and wherein the electric motor, the transmission and the output section are arranged in an axial sequence one after the other such that the first and second output sleeves circumferentially extend around a same axis as the motor output shaft and the planetary gear stages rotate about in use, thereby providing that the motor output shaft, the planetary gear stages and the first and second output sleeves are coaxial.

2. The shear wrench tool of claim 1 , having a handle located part way along an axial length of the tool between the motor and the output section such that a moment of force acting on the tool about the handle in a direction of the output section substantially balances a moment of force acting on the tool in the opposite direction.

3. The shear wrench tool of claim 2 , wherein a distal surface of the handle is provided with a battery receiving portion.

4. The shear wrench tool of claim 1 , wherein the transmission has at least five planetary gear stages provided in series.
