The Hikoki DS18DC is a powerful 18V cordless drill driver designed for demanding tasks that require significant torque. Its brushless motor provides efficient performance, delivering a maximum hard torque of 140Nm and a soft torque of 70Nm, which allows you to drive large screws and drill through tough materials with ease. You can adjust the speed between two ranges, from 0 to 500/min for precision work and up to 2,000/min for faster drilling. The 1.5 to 13mm keyless chuck features carbide inserts for a secure grip on bits, enabling you to work with mild steel up to 16mm and soft wood up to 102mm. Safety is integrated into the design through Reactive Force Control, which uses a gyro sensor to detect sudden tool swing or kickback and stops the motor instantly to protect your wrist. To further improve control, the tool includes a side handle with an anti-slip rubber grip that can be adjusted to 11 different positions. Despite its power, the drill has a compact head measuring 190mm in length, making it easier to maneuver in tight spaces. Weighing 2.6kg when equipped with a 4Ah battery, this tool is a reliable choice for professionals who need a balance of strength and ergonomic handling on the job site.
