DEWALT 60V MAX* Cordless Drill for Concrete Mixing, E-Clutch System, Tool Only (DCD130B)

Love this drill

This is a beast..mixed sand and cement no problem....ideal when it's not worth getting the drum mixer out for small amounts .

Es un aparato muy bueno

So far I have mixed approx 20 buckets of compound for texturing walls and ceilings for a basement remodel. I purchased this item after burning up two Dewalt 20V 980 series drills from mixing mud as well. Decided to step up to a larger model, slower speeds, and 60V system. Tons of power for mixing mud and with the very long extension handle, it makes controlling the drill easy. I run the 2.0AH FlexVolt batteries and it will last 10-15 buckets easily per charge. My batteries are not new, and I usually throw them back on the charge at lunch either way but will easily last an entire day if working with a one-two man crew and not a professional. The drill is large, so if you are storing it in a dewalt box system or similar, please take that into consideration. It will fit in the Dewalt Tool storage sliding drawers, but I just store mine in the included bag as I dont use it everyday unless in drywall mode. Great drill! Great price as a tool only kit!

Buy this. It mixes thinset and drywall mud as well as ice fishing holes!

This machine makes drilling for pre wires a joy. Its additional power, weight and size and the long side handle gives more control when handling longer larger auger bits. The DCD996 (RIP) has/had enough power for those also, but I found it was harder to control due to its shorter scale and less rigid clamshell. The mixer/drill allows me to distance myself further away from the work piece, which means I have better balance; reaching into tighter spots with longer augers. I also picked up a DCD796 which is a surprisingly good drill. Fits the DCD996 side handle and goes where the mixer/drill can't. The DCD996 is a great all rounder if I could only choose one drill. The DCD130 is just in another class, for the price, it wasn't much more than my Hitachi corded drill, but a massive improvement in safety and convenience. Time will tell if it last as long. My drill may have been a returned item as the chuck holes were dented, probably from the chuck key. The mixer drill seems a bit slower in reverse than in forward, though I haven't notice a lag in power. If it helps, I'm not a big person, around 145lbs 5ft8" and found this drill to be quite comfortable to use with a 9.0ah battery.

Nice drill , lots of power, excellent for mixing grout….
