  • DIFFERENCE BETWEEN HAMMER DRILL DRIVERS & IMPACT DRIVERS (Ultimate Guide Tips and Tricks) In this video we explain to the #verycoolgang the big difference between Impact Drivers and Hammer Drill Drivers and which one would be the best for your needs. A traditional drill driver comes with a 1/2'' chuck which is one of the main differences from an impact drivers 1/4'' collet and we explain all the differences in this video! Nowadays these new power tools have a lot of technology built into them, like Bluetooth to connect a tool to your phone! We also give you some tips and tricks when using these two different tools and we explain how to determine which battery you should use and will need. Please make sure too leave anymore tips and tricks down in the comments section below and be sure to share this video with someone you know who could use this ultimate guide! If you learned something new let us know about it in the comments section below.

    If it's got a quarter hex on it.....put it in the impact!...🤘

    • @jmackinjersey1
      @jmackinjersey1 3 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      If it has the little cut around the end of the hex and is rated as an impact bit. I've seen hex shaft bits used in impact drivers not only fall out, but also twist or even shatter, because they are not designed to be used in an impact.

    Thanks for another great video! Learned a lot...especially to be careful with a powerful drill driver due to the high torque they can produce. Huge fan of Kobalt stuff...will be ordering the new $399 (!) 5 piece XTR combo kit with rolling case, when it becomes available for shipping online. Just wanted to mention for folks that may be new to how impact drivers work, that the impact is in the rotational direction of the fastener, whereas the impact with a hammer drill is straight ahead, in line with the bit. Thanks again!

    Regarding drill bits in an impact driver: they aren’t made all the same. Some are impact “ready”, meaning they are 1/4” hex shanked, to fit into an impact. Other drill bits are impact “rated”, meaning not only are the 1/4” hex shanked, but the manufacturer of the drill bit intends for the user to be able to use them in an impact driver if the user wants to, and that the bit should be able to handle being impacted by the tool.

    First off I'd like to say a damn good video! I just watched on another channel a video stating drilling is best left to the drill but after watching your very explicit demonstration I agree with your video the impact driver with the correct impact drilling bit is a much better option and easier on the body. Plus I appreciate the tips and tricks you gave on how to remove a screw that has a stripped head and how to use a screw as a drill bit - That's what I call real 🌎 world construction 😎👍 knowledge.

    The only gripe I have with them is that they just don't have the range of tools that Dewalt or Milwaukee has.

  • @98Bouron

    @Griffers211 4 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Just an FYI the reason they say don't drill with in impact has more todo with the material the bit is made from and not being an impact grade metal. With soft woods it is probably not a big deal. But harder woods, metals, and so on you could crack or shatter drill bits in an impact over a drill. And that's from the constant impacting that is taking place. And I've asked manufacturers why they put the 1/4" end on drill bits, and the normal answer I get is that's what sells. Just thought I'd share what I found in my years in the tool trade. Otherwise great video love watching. Go Dewalt!

    simple tip I learned the hard way when I was an apprentice. I'm sure most will say I was obvious but never put your head close enough to the drill where in the case of bind up like it did to Nick it knocks you off a ladder . Sounds stupid but there's plenty of situations where you can end up learning this the hard way.

    I recently purchased the DCK299D1W1 kit with the 998 with 8ah and 887 with a 2ah battery, I had a 885 impact already which I use a lot at work, and this new power detect drill is a monster, makes drilling all the holes much easier and faster when I rough out, I use my impact still to drill holes when I need something smaller to fit in spaces the 998 won’t, outstanding tools and always a great video from this channel.

    Coming from a background in concrete rework; core drilling, big hydraulic concrete sawing, diamond wire sawing etc, my fav love tool maker and company is Hilti. But having to quit because of an accident, these days it's mostly Milwaukee for me. Top shelf power, build, very good quality, for what just a few years ago was midrange prosumer priceclass. After a severe accident, my work now is microsoldering. There my fav brand is very much in the same vein (top quality and performance for prosumer price; Hakko).
