The DEWALT 20V MAX XR Impact Driver is engineered for users who demand power, durability, and precision in a compact tool. This brushless impact driver comes with a 1/4″ quick-change hex chuck and 3-speed settings, making it a versatile choice for tackling tough tasks on any worksite. Here’s what makes it stand out and why it’s a go-to for professionals and hobbyists alike.

1. Brushless Motor for Greater Efficiency and Longevity

The DCF845B is equipped with DEWALT’s high-efficiency brushless motor, delivering increased runtime, higher power output, and less maintenance compared to brushed models. Brushless motors reduce friction, translating into less heat and energy loss, which means this impact driver can work harder and longer without wearing down.

• Benefit: Longer battery life and better performance over time.

2. 3-Speed Control for Precision and Versatility

With its 3-speed control setting, this impact driver allows you to select the ideal speed and torque for the task at hand. Whether you’re working on delicate tasks that require precision or handling tougher materials, this adjustable speed option gives you full control to avoid over-driving screws or damaging surfaces.

• Speed Settings:
  • Low (1) for precision work and delicate materials
  • Medium (2) for everyday tasks
  • High (3) for maximum power when working with tough materials

3. Compact and Lightweight Design

Designed to be compact and easy to handle, the DCF845B is perfect for tight spaces and extended use. Weighing in at a lightweight, ergonomic design, it reduces user fatigue, making it ideal for all-day use on the job site or at home. This impact driver also has a comfortable grip, ensuring better control and less strain during operation.

• Dimensions: Compact enough to fit into tight workspaces.

4. High Torque Output for Heavy-Duty Jobs

With a high torque output of 1,825 in-lbs, the DCF845B delivers plenty of power for demanding jobs. It effortlessly drives screws, bolts, and other fasteners into tough materials, making it suitable for construction, carpentry, automotive work, and more. The tool’s performance is particularly impressive when it comes to driving large fasteners or removing rusted bolts.

• Application: Ideal for heavy-duty applications, from wood and metal to masonry tasks.

5. Quick-Change 1/4″ Hex Chuck for Easy Bit Changes

The 1/4″ quick-change hex chuck makes swapping out bits a breeze, saving you time and improving efficiency. This feature is particularly useful for tasks that require frequent bit changes, such as driving screws and then switching to a drill bit. It provides a secure hold for the bits, minimizing the risk of slippage during high-torque operations.

6. Battery Compatibility and Bare Tool Option

This model is a bare tool, meaning it doesn’t come with batteries or a charger, which is a plus for those who already own other DEWALT 20V MAX XR tools. It’s fully compatible with DEWALT’s 20V MAX XR lithium-ion batteries, allowing you to power it with the same battery platform if you’re already in the DEWALT ecosystem.

• Compatibility: Works with DEWALT’s 20V MAX XR batteries for seamless integration.
