DEWALT DCF887 introduces a powerful brushless motor in a compact 4-1/2-inch tool body for precision drilling, driving, and fastening. The DCF887 impact driver has a variable speed range of 0-450/0-1,500 RPM and provides 2,400 in./lbs. Of max torque, which is more torque than the typical cordless drill. The impact driver’s variable speed of 0-2,800 RPM allows you to adapt the output to best suit each bit type, fixing type, and material that you’re working with. The lightweight and compact design was a major hit with most users. This allows you to use the driver for long periods of time without experiencing fatigue.

Its motor comes in a variety of sizes and voltages for different needs. The new DCF885 impact driver has increased power and performance over the DCF895. Whether you’re using it for a DIY project or your job depends on it, it’s a significant investment. It has a brushed motor. The cell lasts extremely long, and you don’t need any precise XR battery for it to work. We recommend you buy the 0.6 amp batteries because they will last longer on a single charge. It features a three LED-light arrangement for maximum visibility and reduced shadows. The LED’s activate automatically once the trigger is pressed and stays on for 20 seconds following the release of the trigger.

DeWalt DCF885 Features

Both models come with accessories in the set. The Dewalt DCD787 comes with a 1.5Ah Lithium-ion battery, a fast charger, and a bag to carry the impact driver and other tools giving you the desired portability. Dewalt DCD887 too comes with a case and a faster charger with the difference being the number of batteries. It comes with two 4Ah batteries and a belt hook. Despite both of them having almost the same type of accessories, Dewalt DCD887 comes with two higher amperage batteries and a belt hook. These accessories make it a better impact driver.

The DCF887 sits a couple of models above the DCF885 in DEWALT’s range of impact drivers, so it isn’t surprising that it comes with a few additional benefits out of the box. Other users were very impressed by the year warranty. If your impact driver should break during this time, you can rest assured you will get a replacement ASAP.Furthermore, the DCF885 is equipped with a bright LED light that illuminates the work area, ensuring visibility in low-light conditions. This feature is particularly beneficial for work in dark or tight spaces. With a maximum torque output of 1400 IN-LBS and maximum impacts per minute of 3,200 IPM, the DCF885 delivers more than enough power to handle larger fixings in the toughest of materials. And trust us…we’re speaking from experience here, having resorted to using a drill driver on several projects to drive longer fixings into tough materials like hardwood, steel, and concrete.

The Dewalt DCF887 cordless brushless motor is an excellent piece of engineering. It is a three-phase, electronically commutated motor with a permanent magnet rotor and a built-in sensor to determine shaft position. The shaft position sensor allows the engine to adjust for load variations and maintain constant speed under load.

Conclusion

Both models also come in a variety of different kit types, including those which include the tool only, and others loaded with either standard-powered lithium-ion batteries, multiple batteries, or higher-powered batteries which you can choose between depending on your needs/budget.
