DEWALT Launches Heavy-Duty 36V Hammerdrill / Drill / Driver--Providing Professional Users
With The Power Of Corded Without The Cord
– New Drill Features Patented 3-Speed Transmission, Optimizing Speed of Application –
– Independent Testing Found the 36V Hammerdrill/Drill/Driver Drills 22 Percent Faster Than
the Industry's Leading Corded Hammerdrill –
January 2006 – DEWALT, a leading manufacturer of industrial power tools, today announced
the launch of its heavy-duty 36V hammerdrill / drill / driver (DC900KL). DEWALT engineered
the DC900KL with a 36V battery, providing professional users with increased levels of power
and runtime, while maintaining a similar weight to corded and other 18V
hammerdrill/drill/drivers. The DC900KL was built from the ground up with innovative features
and delivers increased speed, runtime and durability. The DC900KL provides professional
contractors with the performance of a corded hammerdrill/drill/driver without the restriction
of a power cord.
The DC900KL is designed with a patented 3-speed transmission that optimizes the speed
applied to each application, offering professional end users maximum performance for
various heavy-duty applications. For example, first speed is ideal for use with hole saws and
self feed bits when drilling large holes in wood. Second speed is ideal for use with auger bits
or screwdriving. Third speed is ideal for hammer drilling into concrete. Additionally, the
DC900KL is equipped with a ½" self-tightening chuck, which enables the chuck to
automatically tighten throughout operation. This provides the end user with over twice the
bit gripping torque of a traditional keyless chuck. DEWALT also designed the DC900KL with
high-levels of durability and reliability to withstand the most demanding applications and the
most extreme jobsite environments. For added user comfort and control, the DC900KL has an
anti-slip comfort grip on the handle of the drill.
Independent third-party testing evaluated the speed and runtime of the DC900KL compared
to the industry's leading corded and cordless hammerdrills. For example, the DC900KL was
tested against other corded hammerdrills by drilling a 1-3/8" hole saw into 20 gauge steel. On
average, the DC900KL was able to drill through this material in 3.87 seconds, 22 percent
faster than the Milwaukee® 0234 and Milwaukee® 300 corded hammerdrills*. When testing
the runtime of the tool, the DC900KL drilled an average of 67 holes using a 2-9/16" self feed
bit through a 2"x10". This is 2.6 times the number of holes drilled by the industry's leading
18V hammerdrill/drill/driver**.
The DC900KL has the ability to complete a variety of heavy-duty applications, such as drilling
in wood with self feed bits, auger bits and hole saws, fastening lag bolts and hammerdrill in
concrete as fast or faster than leading corded drills. Combined with 2-3 times the runtime
compared to 18V drills, the DC900KL brings new levels of productivity to the jobsite. The
DC900KL will be available in the first half of 2006.
** 3 rd Party testing performed November, 2005. Average results based on 30 Discharges
Using 6 Units.
