Cordless drill Fein ASCM 18 QSW AS N00 18V 2-speed, brushless, 18 V

The Fein ASCM 18 QSW AS N00 is a cordless drill with an 18 V brushless motor and two-speed gearbox designed for drilling and fastening in a wide range of materials. Compact and battery-powered, this model offers adjustable speed ranges that provide control for both delicate screwdriving and higher-torque drilling tasks. The tool is intended for users who require mobility, torque control and a durable motor for professional or advanced DIY applications.

Advantages

The brushless motor increases efficiency and reduces maintenance compared with brushed designs, delivering longer runtime and consistent power under load. The two-speed gearbox allows selection between higher speed for rapid drilling and lower speed for greater torque during fastening. Its compact form factor improves access in confined spaces while retaining sufficient torque for common building and repair tasks. Ergonomic balance and a straightforward control layout contribute to ease of use during extended work periods.

Suitable for

• Drilling into wood, metal and plastics for installation and repair work
• Screwdriving tasks in furniture assembly and fitting work
• On-site maintenance and light construction tasks requiring cordless mobility
• Work in confined or overhead locations where a compact tool is needed

Key specifications

• Voltage: 18 V nominal system voltage
• Motor type: brushless electric motor for improved efficiency
• Gearbox: 2-speed mechanical gearbox for variable speed and torque
• Power delivery: designed for a balance of speed and torque suitable for drilling and fastening
• Form factor: compact, handheld design for access in tight spaces
• Control: forward/reverse and variable speed control via trigger

How to use

Install a compatible 18 V battery according to the manufacturer's instructions and select the appropriate drill bit or screwdriver bit for the task. Choose the lower gear for higher torque when driving screws or drilling larger holes, and select the higher gear for faster drilling in softer materials. Use steady pressure and allow the brushless motor to maintain speed under load rather than forcing the tool. Engage the forward or reverse selector as required to drive or remove fasteners and release the trigger to stop the tool. Follow standard safety procedures such as securing workpieces, wearing eye protection and disconnecting the battery during bit changes.

Recommendations

For extended runtime and best performance, use batteries with appropriate capacity from the same voltage platform and allow the motor to cool during prolonged heavy work. Match drill bit type and size to material, and pre-drill pilot holes when driving large screws to reduce torque strain. Store the tool and batteries in a dry environment and follow periodic inspection for wear to maintain reliable operation.
