DEWALT DCD785C2 20-Volt MAX Li-Ion Compact 1.5 Ah Hammer Drill/Driver Kit

DEWALT’S DCD785C2 20V MAX lithium-ion compact 1.5 Ah hammer drill/driver kit comes equipped with advanced technology and innovative features that make it ideal for commercial and residential builders, remodelers, carpenters, woodworkers, electricians, and plumbers. Its extreme durability, performance, and comfort allow users to match the tool to the task at hand, increasing its flexibility for a variety of applications regardless of speed, torque, or power.

What's in the box

  • (1) DCD785 hammer drill/driver
  • (2) 20V MAX 1.5 Ah lithium-ion batteries
  • (1) 30-minute fast charger
  • (1) Belt hook
  • (1) On-board bit holder
  • (1) Hard plastic storage and carrying case

Strength and speed

The hammer drill’s high-power, high-efficiency motor delivers 350 unit watts out of maximum power for superior performance in light and medium drilling applications. A 1/2-inch ratcheting chuck with carbide inserts provides superior bit-gripping strength—reducing slippage during high-torque applications—thus providing longer tool life. The hammer drill/driver’s two-speed (0-600 RPM and 0-2,000 RPM) transmission allows users to select the appropriate speed for the job at hand and is up to 30 percent faster than current hammer drill/drivers on the market.

Comfort and convenience

The compact hammer drill’s design incorporates a slim handle with contoured grip that extends user comfort during long jobs, and DEWALT’s engineering and design team adjusted the product footprint and weight allocation for ideal balance and a lightweight feel, making the 3.5-pound tool easy to maneuver in tight areas. The bright built-in LED work light above the trigger has a 20-second delay that improves visibility in dimly lit spaces.

20V MAX battery platform

DEWALT-designed electronics have been built into the DCD785C2’s switch to provide maximum life for the tool and battery by helping to protect them from overheating, overloading, and deep discharge during use. The 20V’s lithium-ion batteries provide up to 35 percent more runtime than existing 18V lithium-ion battery technology. The included charger has dual voltage capabilities, and it is compatible with both 12V MAX and 20V MAX DEWALT lithium-ion batteries; the DCD785C2 is also compatible with the 3.0 Ah lithium-ion batters that are available as replacement packs or come with the premium tools.

Made in the USA

In a commitment to build America, DEWALT, a leading manufacturer of high-quality professional power tools, is proud to expand its product offerings made in the USA using global materials to include more than 600 different cordless power tools, hand tools and accessories. DEWALT began production of its American-built cordless power tools in its 75,000-square-foot Charlotte Manufacturing Operations facility in early October of 2013, using global materials. Those same tools built prior to the opening of the factory were manufactured internationally and imported.

DEWALT cannot guarantee the tool you receive to be made in the USA, some retailers may have items that were built prior to October 2013. Only tools manufactured after October 2013 are made in the USA with global materials.
