At only 3.97-In. in length, the 20V MAX* 1/4-In. 3-Speed Impact Driver (DCF850) is 29 percent shorter**. With a brushless motor that delivers 30 percent more max torque*** at 1825 in-lbs., as well as 3250 RPM (no-load), the impact driver powers through heavy applications like larger fasteners and spade bits while providing access to tighter spaces like cabinetry and framing. Three LED lights provide optimum illumination while 3-Speed setting and a variable speed trigger allow for precision and control.

Each of the new 20V MAX* Impact Wrenches delivers up to 300 ft-lbs. of max tightening torque and up to 450 ft-lbs. of max breakaway torque, all at an astonishing weight of just 2.5 lbs. (tool only) each. At less than 5-In in length, the DCF921 brushless impact wrench is 28 percent more compact^† for comfort and improved access when working in tight spaces. Glass filled nylon housings help resist the effects of harsh automotive chemicals and solvents making it ideal for use in a variety of construction and automotive applications including grooved couplings, pipe flanges, concrete anchors, brake repair, engine bay work, suspension repair and more. Precision Wrench™ Control provides added control when used in forward/reverse and TimberScrew™ Mode for performance in wood fastening applications. The DCF921 and DCF923 each feature a hog ring anvil for easy socket changes while the DCF922 has a detent pin anvil for users who require additional socket retention. Users can also select LED brightness with the 3 mode select button.
