Dewalt DCD796P1 18V XR Brushless Combi Drill, 1x 5.0Ah Battery, Charger & Case

The Dewalt DCD796 18V XR Brushless Combi Drill is a powerful, compact and versatile cordless power tool designed for professional builders, electricians, plumbers, carpenters, kitchen fitters and maintenance engineers.

Combining a high performance brushless motor with hammer drilling capability, a durable two speed transmission and precise torque adjustment, this professional combi drill delivers dependable performance across demanding drilling and screwdriving applications.

Powered by Dewalt's 18V XR lithium ion battery platform, the DCD796 offers excellent cordless freedom without the restrictions of trailing cables.

Its efficient brushless motor provides reliable power delivery, reduced maintenance requirements and improved energy efficiency, helping professionals maximise productivity throughout busy working days.

Featuring an impressive maximum hard torque of 70Nm, the DCD796 provides the power required for demanding fastening and drilling tasks. The robust two speed all metal transmission offers selectable speeds of 0 to 550rpm and 0 to 2000rpm, allowing users to balance torque and drilling speed according to the application.

Three operating modes provide versatility for screwdriving, rotary drilling and hammer drilling. The hammer function delivers up to 34,000 blows per minute, allowing efficient drilling into suitable masonry materials, while the rotary drilling function is ideal for timber, metal and plastics.

For precise fastening, the drill incorporates 15 adjustable torque settings, helping prevent overtightening and damage to screw heads or delicate materials. The 13mm keyless chuck provides secure bit retention and convenient accessory changes, while the variable speed trigger offers excellent control during operation.

Despite its impressive performance, the DCD796 features a compact and lightweight design that makes it particularly useful when working inside cupboards, between joists or in other restricted areas. The ergonomic rubber overmoulded handle provides a secure, comfortable grip, helping reduce fatigue during repetitive drilling and fastening tasks.

For example, an electrician installing cable containment in a commercial property can use the hammer drilling mode to drill fixing holes into masonry walls before switching to screwdriving mode to secure brackets and fittings. The adjustable torque settings help prevent overtightening, while the compact body makes working in confined installation areas easier and more comfortable.

A bright LED work light positioned at the base of the tool improves visibility in poorly illuminated areas. The included magnetic bit holder keeps frequently used screwdriver bits conveniently accessible, while the belt hook allows the drill to be secured between tasks.
