Product Information

Screwfix has an excellent reputation and is arguably the best brand for trade tools in the UK. This is down to them supplying only top-quality tools at extremely reasonable prices. It’s obvious that the team at Screwfix are passionate about what they do – having friendly and helpful staff that range from online assistants to instore staff. If you are unsure or need any advice on your DIY or trade job, they are more than happy to answer your questions. But then that’s not really this drill’s job. Instead it’s great for rapid screwing jobs, where a low torque setting is the best option. For drilling up to 13mm in wood and masonry, you’ll want to select a punchier torque setting, but it copes admirably, especially with good quality bits installed.

DeWalt DCD778D2T-SFGB 18V 2 x 2.0Ah Li-Ion XR Brushless DeWalt DCD778D2T-SFGB 18V 2 x 2.0Ah Li-Ion XR Brushless

DeWalt has often been the forerunner when it comes to cordless power tools. Its 18-volt XR range is renowned for its build quality and flexibility, so much so that DeWalt brands it ‘Guaranteed Tough’. It's fast becoming the favourite lithium-ion cordless range of power tools on the market, with tradespeople and DIYers alike relying on the versatility and durability it provides. Cheaper brands, such as those you would find in high street bargain stores, will have been mass-produced with lower grade materials which allow the low price tag. Though that may sound good for your bank account, you will soon discover you have a tape measure that slices your fingers, screwdrivers that don’t fit in the cross slot of a screw and a hammer grip that is slipping from the handle.

Wear clothing that fits well. Loose clothing or accessories can get caught in a tool’s moving parts, which could result in dire consequences. If you’re looking for something a bit different then DeWalt DCD796P2-GB 18V 5.0Ah Li-Ion XR Brushless Cordless Combi Drill is a great suggestion. The usual DeWalt quality, and good powerful little drill. It doesn't appear to come with a belt clip and magnetic holder included though, which is unusual. The magnetic holder can be particularly useful.
