How is the perfomance of the drill for heavy duty drilling, would you recommend?

I used this drill to bore small holes through the concrete walls in my basement using masonry bits. It wasn't exactly like a knife through butter, but it did the job just fine.

As slowly as you are able to finesse the trigger. The action on mine is smooth and even, not touchy, too hard or easy. I simple squeeze the trigger as I would when shooting and the drill will start to barely turn. It can be kept at that speed or squeeze a bit more and speed it up, whichever is needed. My drill will start, turn and continue to turn at speeds much lower than 200 RPM. I use this to make sure I have the bit on the mark; it is very handy.

The drill bit is reasonably heavy - my high speed electric drill worked best. My battery operated one wasn't as good. Hope this helps.

For sure its a very powerful drill but it all depends on the "BIT" being used. Great drill.

Well... it depends . It's too slow for drilling. So I wouldn't recommend it for that purpose. But I have drilled a few things...took some elbow grease.

yes.....this drill has a lot of torque. I had no problems drilling 1/4" steel in my back yard repairing a fence.

The drill size or type doesn't matter. Take your time and when you do drill try to make a dam around the hole with plumbers putty. Add a little water and this will help keep the bit cool and not wear out too fast.

It worked very good for me. No overheating. But please make sure you use a good bit. Look for some brands like Bosch, Metabo etc. Actually I beleve that bit is more important than drill.

I believe a hammer drill would be a little more heavy duty for going into concrete. Depending on how hard a job it is, it may suffice, at the risk of burning out the motor?

It is a good drill,but I do not recommend it to drill in concrete. get heaver duty.

I'm sorry I can not help you much.I purchased this drill for my Father.He wanted it for both purposes if he needed it.However I'm not sure if he ever used it for either?It's a nice looking heavy feeling drill.I showed him how it worked and it worked is all I can say.For the price and for what he may or may not need,it's a great purchase.

From what i have been told less friction which translates to longer runtime on a single charge. I have used the brushless impact gun over 1 year on commercial carpentry and residential side work. It is the best in my opinion. Having bought the impact gun first made me confident in buying the DCD 790b 20v. It has met all of my expectations and i would recommend this drill to anyone that needs a heavy duty tool.

You should be fine. Remember to hold on tight - it can wrench the drill if you hit a root ~ go slowly.

Not on this particular model. I would suggest, however, if you need a drill with a side handle for daily use, a Millwaukee hammer drill would be a wiser choice-and cheaper in the long run!

This drill is excellent. I e used in concrete block walls 15cm yen. I have not had any problems. We recommend

the impact driver definitely creates more power for almost everything. I would only get the standard drill if I was doing light detailed work only
