3/8"
corded drills
DeWalt offers a new line of 3/8" corded
drills that provide increased
performance in two handle grip styles:
an all new mid-handle grip (DWD115K) and
traditional pistol grip (DWD110K and
DWD112). The new drills are designed to
provide increased levels of power,
durability, and comfort for heavy-duty
jobs.
The drills have a new larger, more
powerful motor and 0 to 2,500 rpm for
increased reliability and performance.
The DWD115K offers 8.0 amps of power and
features a durable all-metal keyless
ratcheting chuck, for increased bit
retention.
The two grip designs allow users to
select the design that best meets their
drilling and screw-driving needs for
greater comfort and productivity.
