help DeWalt DCD796B Cordless Impact Driver FAQ
What is the difference between the DeWalt DCD796B and an impact driver?
Despite some catalog descriptions, the DCD796B is actually a compact hammer drill, not an impact driver, utilizing a standard 1/2-inch ratcheting chuck rather than a quick-release hex chuck. It is designed for heavy-duty drilling into masonry and features a brushless motor for extended runtime.
Does the DeWalt DCD796B come with a battery?
The B in DeWalt DCD796B stands for bare tool, meaning the purchase includes only the drill driver without any batteries or a charger. You will need to supply your own 20V MAX lithium-ion batteries to operate it.
Is the DeWalt DCD796B good for drilling into concrete?
Yes, because the DCD796 is specifically a hammer drill, it features a hammer mode that rapidly pulses the bit forward to chip away at masonry. It is highly effective for drilling small to medium holes into concrete, brick, and block.
How much does the DeWalt DCD796B weigh?
The bare tool weighs approximately 3.6 pounds, making it quite light and maneuverable for overhead work. This compact form factor easily fits into tight spaces where larger, heavier hammer drills might be difficult to maneuver.
