This offering provides users with solutions to meet a range of user needs from max torque for heavy-duty applications to quiet operation in noise-sensitive work environments.
“DEWALT’s latest fastening solutions not only meet the standards of the XR® lineup, but are industry-leading with advanced engineering and design features,” said Bill Harman, Vice President of Product Management, DEWALT. “In its 100th year, DEWALT continues its commitment to user-focused innovation with these tools that meet specialized needs like high torque, less noise, and optimized ergonomics to drive productivity.”
20V MAX* XR® 3/4 in. and 1/2 in. High Torque Impact Wrenches
For tough jobs demanding power, DEWALT introduces its highest-rated max torque impact wrenches: the new 20V MAX* XR® 3/4 in. High Torque Impact Wrench (DCF964) and 20V MAX* XR® 1/2 in. (DCF961) High Torque Impact Wrench with expanded capabilities.
To maximize jobsite productivity, the new DCF964 provides up to 102% more torque‡ for use in tough applications and is the industry’s highest rated max torque cordless 3/4 in. impact wrench.
For heavy duty 1/2 in. fastening applications, the DCF961 provides users with even more performance with up to 28% more torque when paired with the XR POWERSTACK™ Oil-Resistant 5 Ah Battery‡ and is the industry’s highest rated max torque cordless 1/2 in. impact wrench.
Both tools feature a glass-filled nylon housing to help protect against oils and solvents. Other features include PRECISION WRENCH™ mode, which helps prevent overtightening and fastener run-off, and a four-mode push button switch to easily change speeds and LED brightness.
20V MAX* XR® 1/4 in. Quiet Hydraulic Impact Driver
The new 20V MAX* XR® 1/4 in. Quiet Hydraulic Impact Driver (DCF870) is DEWALT’s quietest impact driver*** as well as the industry’s highest rated max torque hydraulic impact driver designed for noise-sensitive environments with up to 57% quieter operation. Ideal for framing, cabinetry, and other applications in tight areas, the impact driver delivers up to 40% faster driving with consistent performance in demanding applications and cold temperatures. The tool also features nine built-in LEDs and a 20-minute work light mode to help illuminate dark workspaces.
New fastening tools will join the existing 20V MAX* XR® 1/4 in. 3-Speed High Torque Impact Driver (DCF860) and 20V MAX* XR® 1/2 in. High Torque Impact Wrench (DCF961) to expand the growing XR® fastening portfolio.
The 20V MAX* XR® 3/4 in. High Torque Impact Wrench (DCF964) and 20V MAX* XR® 1/4 in. Quiet Hydraulic Impact Driver (DCF870) will be available in early fall where DEWALT products are sold.
