The unique application models use the brushless motor’s electronic controls to find the best balance of speed and torque for each application for more efficient fastening. Another precision setting is Tightening Mode (T-mode), which downshifts and reduces rotation and impact speed prior to driving the screw into place, and is engineered to minimize screw thread stripping, screw breakage and damage to work.
The DTD172 delivers industry-leading performance in a compact and ergonomic design. Added features include the one-touch 4-speed power selector button under the chuck, which enables one-handed speed changes, and reverse rotation auto-stop mode which stops rotation and impact when the fastener is loosened adequately to help prevent over-loosening and dropped fasteners.
- Slim Tool Body – tool head has been re-designed to be slimmer than the previous model enabling the tool to have greater access to tight corners or confined spaces.
- One Touch Bit Installation – new bit installation has been designed to prevent the bit from unexpectedly falling off. A more effective mechanism has been designed to increase the strength of the chuck without increasing the resistance required to install a bit.
- Enhanced Anvil Holder – material change from needle bearing to ball bearing provides reduction of bit wobbling. Providing more stability and control when fastening.
- Quick Change Selector – one-touch mode selector located above the trigger allows the user to jump between modes single-handed. Quickly changing between modes improves the efficiency as you no longer have to take your hand off the tool.
- Light Mode – enables the tool to be used as a torch in dark environments. To turn the light on set the F/R change lever to the neutral position and pull the switch trigger. To turn off the light pull the trigger again.
- 4 Optimised Application Modes – 4 assist mode variations; T-mode 1 and 2 for self-drilling screws in both thick and thin sheet metal. Wood mode for fastening long wood screws. Bolt mode with rotation auto stop for tightening/loosening bolts.
- 4-Speed Power Selection – 4 electronic speeds allow the user to adjust the power, speed and impact rate to suit the fastening application.
