The POWERSTATE™ brushless motor delivers 1200 in-lb of torque and 2000 rpm, providing fast drilling through demanding applications. At 6.9 in L, this is the most compact drill in its class, giving better access in tight spaces and reducing fatigue. The REDLINK PLUS™ intelligence ensures maximum performance and protects from overloads, heating and over-discharge. The REDLITHIUM™ XC5.0™ battery pack delivers more work per charge and more work over the life of the pack when compared to competitors. The all metal ratcheting chuck is the best-in-class by providing increased bit grip strength and corrosion resistance.
