\nCordless drills and impact drivers are both useful tools for a variety of projects.

Keep reading as we discover the key differences between an impact driver and a cordless drill so that you can select the right one for your needs.<\/p>\n

What is a Cordless Drill?<\/h2>\n

\"Brushless
\nA cordless drill is an electric drill that is primarily used to drill circular holes. It can also help you to insert screws or other fasteners into a variety of materials. It\u2019s ideal for creating holes, where a fast and constant spin is necessary to cut through the wood or material smoothly. A cordless drill can be used with a huge variety of drill bits and driving bits, making it a versatile tool for a variety of projects.<\/p>\n

What is an Impact Driver?<\/h2>\n

\"impact
\nImpact drivers are almost exclusively used for driving fasteners. Even though they are smaller, they deliver a lot more force than a standard drill. The main difference between an impact driver and a cordless drill is in how the two tools are engineered and how they transfer this force. While a drill just spins, an impact driver is a more complex tool that can sense resistance. When resistance increases, it activates another mode to reduce the amount of force transferred into your arm, making it easier to hold and operate.<\/p>\n
