DeWalt's flagship hammer drill matched with the battery it was designed around.

The DCD1007 is the most powerful 20V MAX hammer drill DeWalt builds — 2,000 RPM, 38,250 BPM, 1,530 max watts out — and it beats every previous 20V MAX hammer drill in the line including XR, FlexVolt Advantage, and Power Detect models when paired with the 8Ah POWERPACK. That pairing is what you're buying here. The performance figures are specified with this battery; put a 2.0Ah pack in the tool and you won't see them.

Three speeds rather than two means the drill holds high speed through work that forces two-speed tools into low gear hunting for torque.

The ANTI-ROTATION System matters most at this power level. A drill making 2,100 in-lbs will take your wrist with it when a self-feed bit binds in a doubled joist — the system senses excessive rotational motion and shuts the tool down first, with a red LED that lights when it engages. Combined with the included side handle, that's a real answer to the most common serious injury with large-bore drilling.

The all-metal transmission survives loads that crack plastic gearcases. The 1/2" ratcheting chuck is nitro-carburized metal with carbide inserts, gripping smooth shanks hard enough that a bound hole saw stops the tool rather than slipping in the jaws.

Even with all of it, this is DeWalt's shortest premium 3-speed drill at 7.6", so it still reaches into stud bays and mechanical rooms. The pivoting 3-position LED has a 20-minute spotlight mode — aim it into a crawlspace, set it, work with both hands.
