DEWALT® Expands Line of IMPACT READY® Fastening & Drilling Accessories

TOWSON, MD (May 26, 2016) – DEWALT, maker of IMPACT READY® Accessories, continues to expand its already large offering of Fastening & Drilling Accessories with new IMPACT READY® Drill & Tap Accessories, Screw Lock Holder, Drive Guide and Masonry Accessories.

The primary features of the new IMPACT READY® Drill & Tap Accessories include a 3-in-1 drill, tap and countersink feature, a speed tip, and 1/4” material cut capacity. These provide ease of use, help to reduce walking, and application versatility for electricians, mechanical, glaziers, elevator installers and general contractors.

The new DEWALT IMPACT READY® Drive Guide is designed for use in an impact driver. Made with stainless steel parts, the hex-shank, 1.5” sleeve extension, and FlexTorq™ bit holder provide durability and help with fastener retention. This design is perfect for residential and commercial fastening applications.

The IMPACT READY® Screw Lock Holder offers 10X stronger magnetism than conventional holders and includes a quick release mechanism, floating ring magnet, and removable sleeve. All of these features are optimal in residential and commercial trades.

Finally, the new IMPACT READY® Masonry Accessories allow users to drill into brick and block with an impact driver. The one-piece solid core design removes material quickly as a result of their innovative flute design. They also feature a carbide tip to provide fast starts, ideal for residential construction applications.

DEWALT IMPACT READY® accessories are designed for use with the complete DEWALT line of Impact Drivers. They will be available where DEWALT products are sold this summer.
