Power Screwdriver/Impact Driver DeWALT DCD444N-XJ, 1.27 cm Steel Drill Diameter, 1.8 W Power

The DeWALT DCD444N-XJ is a compact power screwdriver and impact driver designed for professional light-to-medium drilling and fastening tasks. It supports a maximum drilling diameter in steel of 12.7 mm and a chuck capacity of 13 mm, delivering an output power of 1.8 W. With a depth of 99 mm, a height of 172 mm and a weight of 4.2 kg, the tool balances compact dimensions with a robust build for repeated use on job sites.

Advantages

The DeWALT DCD444N-XJ provides a combination of compact form factor and functional drilling capability, enabling access to tighter spaces while maintaining the ability to drill up to 12.7 mm in steel. Its 13 mm chuck capacity accepts a variety of bits for drilling and driving operations. The specified output power of 1.8 W supports consistent rotational force for controlled work, and the relatively short depth and moderate height make the tool easier to position in constrained areas. The product weight reflects a design intended for stability during use.

Suitable for

• Drilling and fastening in metal work where steel holes up to 12.7 mm are required
• General maintenance and repair tasks in workshops or on-site
• Installation tasks that require a compact driver to reach confined spaces
• Tradespeople needing a portable screwdriver/impact driver for varied materials

Key specifications

• Maximum drilling diameter in steel: 12.7 mm
• Chuck capacity: 13 mm
• Output power: 1.8 W
• Depth: 99 mm
• Height: 172 mm
• Weight: 4.2 kg

How to use

Select an appropriate drill or driver bit compatible with the 13 mm chuck and securely tighten it in place before operation. Ensure the workpiece is properly clamped or supported and choose the correct speed/torque setting if the tool offers adjustable controls. Position the driver so the bit is perpendicular to the work surface, apply steady pressure, and start the tool at low speed to create a pilot entry before increasing to the required speed. For impact driving tasks, use suitable impact-rated bits and allow the tool to work with brief, controlled bursts to avoid overheating.

Recommendations

Use personal protective equipment such as safety glasses and hearing protection. Verify that the selected bit and fasteners are rated for the material and hole diameter required. For prolonged or heavy-duty use, monitor tool temperature and allow cooling intervals to preserve motor life. Store the tool in a dry, secure place when not in use.
