Posted by Katy | Toolstop on 14th Dec 2021

Find out everything you need to know about Dewalt's latest offering - the DCF850 compact impact wrench - in this Toolstop blog.

New Dewalt DCF850 Impact Driver

Dewalt's Best Compact Impact Driver

The DCF850 18V XR impact driver is ultra compact with 3 speed settings for maximum versatility and up to 205Nm torque. In this Toolstop guide, we show you all the features you can expect from this tool and why it is hyped up to be Dewalt's best impact driver yet.


Features of the DCF850 Impact Driver

The DCF580 benefits from features such as a brushless motor for more power, efficiency and durability and a variable speed trigger to allow speed control over applications and to prevent over tightening. It is capable of producing up to 205Nm torque in a tiny package, measuring just 100mm in length. The improved 1/4" bit holder offers improved user experience by reducing bit run out.

Other features include a 3 mode switch with precision drive which allows the user to select different modes and speeds to suit the application, an ergonomic grip handle for comfort during prolonged use and an LED ring light to illuminate the workpiece.

Its compact design makes it ideal for use in confined, hard to reach areas. It has a 1/4" drive with variable speed control, capable of producing up to 3250rpm. It is compatible with all batteries in the 18V range including the new Powerstack batteries. You can find out more about Dewalt Powerstack batteries in our blog.

Dewalt DCF887 Vs DCF850

As we can see, the only real difference is the size of these models and a slight increase in impacts per minute. The new DCF850 is shorter in length than the DCF887, meaning it can fit into even smaller spaces. It is extremely lightweight meaning no fatigue, even during prolonged use.
