What to check before you order

  • Tool for the task. Drill/drivers for general drilling and light fastening, hammer drills for occasional masonry, rotary hammers for regular concrete work, impact drivers for long screws, impact wrenches for bolts.
  • Chuck and drive. Drills use 3/8 or 1/2 in. keyless chucks. Impact drivers take 1/4 in. hex bits. Impact wrenches use square drives for sockets.
  • Bare tool or kit. If you already run the platform, a bare tool with no battery saves duplication. A kit makes sense for a new user.
  • Clutch and speed settings. An adjustable clutch helps avoid stripping or overdriving screws in softer material.
  • Size and weight. Compact tools work better overhead and in tight cabinets.

Browse all power tools, add batteries and chargers, or stock bits and accessories. For drill bit selection, see drill bit materials.

Common questions

What is the difference between a drill and an impact driver?

A drill/driver turns with steady torque and a chuck that holds round or hex shank bits, which makes it suited to drilling accurate holes. An impact driver adds rapid rotational blows when resistance builds, so it drives long screws and lag bolts with less wrist strain, but it only accepts 1/4 in. hex shank bits.

What is the difference between a hammer drill and a rotary hammer?

A hammer drill uses ridged clutch plates to create many light impacts and works for occasional holes in brick, block and concrete. A rotary hammer uses a piston mechanism for heavier blows and usually takes slotted SDS-type shank bits, so it drills concrete faster and many models can also chisel.
