Why choose a DeWalt impact driver?
DeWalt impact drivers are engineered for high-torque applications — an excellent choice for driving screws and bolts into wood, metal, and other hard materials.
Unlike drills, impact drivers use concussive force to deliver power, so screws are driven quickly, without stripping the material. For anyone requiring reliability and portability, the cordless design allows maximum flexibility on job sites and while on the go.
DeWalt’s innovative design ensures their impact drivers are lightweight yet durable. Plus, their ¼-inch hex chuck makes changing bits effortless, allowing you to easily transition between tasks.
If you’re looking for an all-in-one solution, our DeWalt impact driver sets come with additional batteries, chargers, and bits. Everything you need in one convenient package.

DeWalt impact driver FAQs
What is the difference between a DeWalt drill and an impact driver?
The main difference between a drill and an impact driver lies in their purpose and mechanism.
A DeWalt drill is versatile and best suited for creating holes and handling lighter fastening tasks. An impact driver, on the other hand, is designed for heavy-duty screwdriving, using rotational force and concussive impacts to drive screws or bolts into tough materials.
What is the difference between an impact driver and a brushless impact driver?
A brushless impact driver uses advanced motor technology for better efficiency, reduced heat, and longer battery life — especially when compared to traditional brushed motors. While both options offer excellent torque, a brushless model is typically preferred for frequent use as it requires less maintenance and ensures consistent performance.
Why use an impact driver instead of a drill?
An impact driver is the go-to tool when you need to drive screws quickly and securely, especially when working with dense materials. Its high-torque output prevents stripping, making it ideal for assembling timber frames or installing decking. Its compact design also fits into tighter spaces easier than a standard drill.
Can I use an impact drill on concrete?
While a DeWalt impact driver is powerful, it’s not designed for drilling into concrete. For masonry tasks, you’ll need a hammer drill or rotary hammer to provide the force to penetrate concrete.
Can you use an impact driver as a screwdriver?
Yes, you can use an impact driver for screwdriving tasks. In fact, it's often more efficient than a standard screwdriver for long screws or dense materials. However, for delicate work like assembling furniture, you may want to use a screwdriver or a drill with adjustable torque settings to avoid over-tightening.
