DeWalt DCD785C2 - 20V Max Lithium-Ion Compact Hammer Drill Kit

Ideal for professionals including remodelers, carpenters, cabinetmakers and installers, woodworkers, electricians and plumbers, this new cordless hammer drill offers the performance, ergonomics and innovative features professionals expect from DEWALT power tools and accessories.

To deliver comfortable and ergonomic drill/drivers, the new DEWALT DCD785C2 uses a 1.5 Amp Hour (Ah) slide-on Lithium Ion battery pack, which allowed engineers to develop a slim handle design. In addition to the contoured grip on the handle, this new 20 Volt MAX* Lithium Ion Hammer Drill is well balanced and compact enough to fit into tight areas.

The new compact hammer drill is also lightweight, weighing 3.5 pounds. This translates to comfort for contractors who use hammer drills throughout the day.

DEWALT also designed the new cordless hammer drill to alleviate the frustrations contractors often experience when using other drill/drivers. These specific frustrations include issues with performance and speed.  For fast speed of application, the DCD785C2 delivers 2,000 RPM, which is up to 30 percent faster than current drill/drivers and hammer drills on the market. Also, for optimized drilling and fastening, the compact hammer drill features a high-speed transmission, which includes two different speed settings that deliver 0-600/0-2,000 RPM.

The DCD785C2 features a bright LED light positioned above the trigger, with a 20-second delay for extended use in dimly lit spaces. A 1.5 Ah Lithium Ion battery powers the compact drills, which is smaller in size to allow for a more compact solution. However, the drills will also work with the 3.0 Ah Lithium Ion batteries that are available as replacement packs or come with the Premium drills or saws.

Additionally, DEWALT-designed electronic features are built into the switches of all 20 Volt MAX* Lithium Ion tools and lights. These electronics provide maximum life for the tools and batteries by helping to protect them from overheating, overloading and deep discharge during use. The charger for each of the items in the system has dual voltage capabilities, and it is compatible with 12 Volt MAX* and 20 Volt MAX* Lithium Ion DEWALT batteries.
