What is the difference between model # DT01W AND #FD01W? Can they both be used as a drill or is # DT01W just a hammer?

I only own the DT01W and it is a good compact driver. From what I read on Makita's site the FD01W is both a driver and a drill. The link for the two tools is below. http://www.makitatools.com/en-us/Modules/Tools/ToolDetails.aspx?Name=DT01Whttp://www.makitatools.com/en-us/Modules/Tools/ToolDetails.aspx?Name=FD01W

i don't believe either of them are hammer drills. they are both impact drill/drivers and fd01w has a speed selector on the top that dt is missing

I use this to get screws out of aircraft panels, very effective. This is not designed to usa as a drill because thier is no chuck attachment......thanks I hope I could help

I'm sorry, but I can't help with that question at all. I bought that item as a gift for someone that requested it.....so I know nothing about it at all.....Sorry!

this one has the 1/4 inch quick change chuck that you can put different drivers in, and it looks like the wt01w has a 3/8 built in, which you would need adapters to use anything but a 3/8 drive socket with. these don't have a lot of power compared to the 18v you may want to get the bigger one if you need any power. i use mine just for driving screws and other small things

Absolutely! This hammer drill uses SDS Plus bits only. The bits can go up to 1". Standard drill bits will not work in this drill.

Standard drill and/or can be used as a hammer drill. It states so in the title of description. ;-) "Bosch HDS181-02 18-Volt Lithium-Ion 1/2-Inch Compact Tough HAMMER Drill Driver"

Dear Tai, When we bought the drill, it was a big surprise to receive the additional Hammer Bit set. That item was not listed as included.I believe the number is HCST006 for the bit set. Hope this was helpful.

Unfortunately no. DeWalt does not yet have a brushless 1/2" hammer drill in a kit with 5.0 amp hour batteries. The DCD995M2 includes the 4.0 amp hour batteries.

I really don't know. My kit didn't include the advertised drills: the 18V LXT 1/2" Hammer Driver-Drill (BHP454) is actually an LXPH03, and the 18V LXT Impact Driver (BTD141) is in fact an LXDT04. But, I'm more than happy with what I received, by the way. Another user said that the advertised combination was being phased out, and that Amazon held stocks of both the old and the new combination. Sorry I can't help more. jjj

My DWD520 is variable speed in hammer and regular drilling modes. I hope this helps, as I think it may be a error in the listing. Mine works just great as well. Keith

No this is not the correct tool for concrete. If you're buying just one drill that can also do concrete, a Hammer drill/driver like the 20V Dewalt DCD995B or the smaller Milwaukee M12 Fuel 2404-20 are the types you'll want. The reason you'll want a hammer drill/driver not an impact drill/driver is that hammer drills do the impacts along the axis of the masonry bit, tapping down into the hole, chipping out concrete as they go, whereas impact drivers like the DCF895 do the impacts rotationally, with each tap twisting the screw/bolt a little tighter.

The BDCDMT120 is the B&D; Matrix that has removable heads that can be interchanged with others such as a jigsaw attachment in place of the drill head. It is also a 3/8 drill. The Decker BDCDHP220SB-2 does not have interchangeable heads but is a 1/2 inch drill with two speed ranges. Love my Decker BDCDHP220SB-2. High speed is very high for a cordless - has lots of power, good battery life and takes larger drill bits than the 3/8".

No but since it is an SDS (most likely SDS+) drill there is no reason it will not work. I use mine in my Hilti TE15 for all non-hammerdrill applications. A high torque, low speed drill is very useful for a lot of things.Most accessory chucks like this are not designed to be used in hammerdrill mode and certainly not in chipping mode. This one is built pretty stout so it might do limitted duty in hammerdrill mode but the SDS+ connection is far better for that than smooth shank.

The DDH181 is part of the Brute Tough Series and the DDS181 is part of the Compact Tough Series of Bosch tools. THE DDH181 has 700 in-lbs of torque. The DDS181 has 600 in-lbs of torque. The DDS181 is a slightly lighter weight tool than the DDH181 as well.

It's not SDS, it's an old Hitachi or Makita. Read my review for the Nikko Jack hammer and I go into detail on this. Not easy to cut & weld either as the top is precision machined. Basically, this spade ONLY fits the old obsolete Makita standard that no one uses except the generic knock-off electric jack hammers. It fools you because it looks just like SDS Max? Hex style that you see on all the standard full-sized jack hammers at Home Depot, etc. I have the Nikko and I found that I mostly use the clay spade an use the point or chisel to break up rock once and a while. Another big con is it is very short so it's a back breaker when you dig a hole. I'm considering cutting and welding in an extension to add 1.5 feet.

Both kits include the DCF886 1/4" impact, but the DCK281D2 includes the DCD790 1/2" drill/driver, and the DCK286D2 includes the DCD795 1/2 hammer drill. The latter is especially good for masonry drilling. Both sets are of the "compact" variety, but the DCD790 is a bit shorter which you could find useful in tight spots. DeWalt also sell heavier duty models which are heavier (heh, heh) and have bigger batteries for longer lasting charges. For the typical weekend warier the compact models are probably perfectly adequate. Beware DeWalt also still sells models which are NOT brushless. They're cheaper, but I'd definitely go for the brushless models.

The chuck is the primary difference. An impact driver has a 1/4" hex quick-release chuck. The hammer drill has a regular drill chuck. Different mission, also. The impact driver is used to install and remove screws and nuts. A hammer drill drills holes in various materials but excels in putting holes in masonry, concrete or stone.
