Power and Performance

The DW960B features two distinct modes for project-specific performance--a low mode that delivers 0 to 500 RPM for 310 inch-pounds of torque and a high mode that delivers 0 to 1,500 RPM for 80 inch-pounds of torque. With a 3/8-inch plastic, ratcheting chuck, this drill/driver has a durable, right angle transmission with sealed ball bearing for a longer tool life and 320 unit watts out of maximum power for heavy-duty applications such as turning large bits and fasteners. Weighing only 2.8 pounds without the battery (not included), the lightweight design minimizes user fatigue.

Tools and Hardware Reviews of DEWALT Bare-Tool DW960B 3/8-Inch 18-Volt Cordless Right Angle Drill/Driver

Customer Review: Dewalt DW960B (tool only) Review
Summary: 5 Stars

The Dewalt DW960 18v cordless right angle drill is very flexible. Not only ideal for driving screws or drilling (with short drill bits) in tight spaces, but the general shape also allows it to serve well as a light-duty sanding & polishing tool with a 5" hook & loop disc pad attached (3M Hookit 9173NA, sold on amazon.com). After several months, my drill is still performing like new. Battery performance is also quite respectable with the current Li-Ion batteries.

For the reviewer mentioning a bad chuck, Dewalt does not manufacture that. Instead, Dewalt selected a chuck made by Jacobs - a traditional, well respected, brand many expect on quality drills. The included Jacobs model #30354 keyless chuck is quite robust, still little in this world is perfect. Your tool is under warranty, but, if you prefer to replace the chuck, the tool will accept most 3/8" chucks fittng a 3/8" x 24 threaded spindle. Amazon.com sells several, including that specific Jacobs model.

By the way, I actually prefer the use of a standard chuck over a proprietary one (made only by Dewalt) which may be difficult to find or replace in the future. Jocobs chucks are sold nearly everywhere and there are many compatibles available.
