DEWALT’s New Compact Cordless Drills are Smaller, Faster,
Stronger. DEWALT has redesigned its line of 12 Volt, 14.4
Volt, and 18 Volt compact cordless drill drivers,
making them smaller and better balanced while adding extra
power and durability.
The new compact drill/drivers are especially suited for electricians,
mechanical and HVAC installers, woodworkers, cabinet installers,
and other tradespeople who prefer a smaller tool for tight
spaces, but want the power normally found in a larger drill/driver.
The new models are 7/8" shorter in length but have a
newly designed motor with all-metal planetary gears for increased
power and durability. All three models are faster and produce
more torque than their predecessors. The T-style handle is
better positioned to improve the tool’s balance and
feel. In addition, a new 3/8" ratcheting chuck with serrated
jaws allows for 15 percent more tightening force on the bit
while greatly reducing bit slippage during use.
The new 12 Volt DW927K-2 drill driver model produces from
0 to 1,400 revolutions-per-minute (RPM) and 300 in-lbs of
max torque – a 43 percent improvement. It weighs only
3.9 lbs with the battery and comes with a heavy-duty kit box,
two batteries, and a one-hour charger.
The new cordless 14.4 Volt DW928K-2 drill model produces
from 0 to 1,400 RPM and 350 in-lbs of max torque – a
25 percent improvement. It weighs only 4.2 lbs with the battery
and comes with a heavy-duty kit box, two batteries, and a
one-hour charger.
The new Dewalt 18 Volt DW929K-2 cordless drill model produces
from 0 to 1,500 RPM and 400 in-lbs of max torque – a
23 percent improvement. It weighs only 4.5 lbs with the battery
and comes with a heavy-duty kit box, two batteries, and a
one-hour charger.
