HE STILL TELLS ME AFTER A YEAR OF USE, HOW MUCH HE ENJOYS IT. MY HUSBAND OWNS HIS CONSTRUCTION COMPANY ,SO HE KNOWS TOOLS. HE'S TOLD ME HE'S DROPPED IT DOZENS OF TIMES AND IT STILL WORKS LIKE NEW. HE WANTED A REALLY RELIABLE IMPACT DRIVER FOR HIS ANNIVERSARY GIFT, AFTER RESEARCHING MANY, I BOUGHT THIS ONE. SOOO GLAD I DID. THE GUYS ON HIS JOBSITE'S ARE JEALOUS AT THE DURABILITY AND EFFICIENTCY OF THIS TOOL. GREAT BUY.
I can begin the day with a charged DW056, and remove and replace a residential garage door completely. Holds up great in cold weather. With the number of teks, screws, bolts, etc. in my industy, you wan to be set for a long haul, and that is what this tool gets for you.
This is a great tool. Excellant value. I have used the driver alot for installing self tapping screws.
This Impact Driver was refered to me by my uncle who is also a carpenter. I hope this has made sense. I can't describe how much easier it is to drive screws.One thing I was impressed with was how close your gripping hand is able to be near the screw head. Other handles on screw guns are further back and make screwing more wobbly. To a veteran screw gun user it should make sense. I strongly recommend this item.Richard
It does not have enough power to be used for most automotive tasks as it has only 98 ft lbs force and most pneumatics have 300-700 ft lbs force. It works where I need it.
When attempting to sister up new 2x4s to old 2x4s my drill would cam out using both square drive and Phillips bits. I purchased this tool to fix a little problem I was having while remodeling my basement.
The impact driver drove the 2.5 and 3 inch screws home with no problem.I love this tool. My friends and I joked that the old wood was petrified.
As I already have a host of other 18 volt DeWalt tools I got this one to match (two new batteries are nice to add to the rotation too). That said please note that I do not/can not use this tool for basic drilling needs.
Also note that with no clutch (which it should not have) you should not attempt to use this for finish wood work.
