Overview

A trade user or serious DIYer gets an impact driver with four speed settings, a metal body and a quarter inch chuck. The only item named in the box is the driver itself.

High torque and four speeds cover small screws through larger fasteners, and the low weight helps on overhead work. The limitation is that the listed dimensions look like another unit entirely.

Who it's for

Overhead and general fastening work benefit from the light body and speed settings. Starters should look at a kit, since this is the driver alone.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Four speed settings
  • High listed torque
Cons
  • Battery and charger not included
  • Dimensions field looks wrong
  • Warranty terms absent

Performance notes

Torque and speed come from the motor and impact mechanism, and four settings let the user match the fastener. Drilling capacity is listed for wood and metal at the same size. Battery choice sets run time.
