DEWALT 20V MAX XR Brushless 1/2 in. Hammer Drill (Tool Only) DCD806B

Power, Precision, and Practicality on Every Job

The DEWALT 20V MAX XR® Brushless Hammer Drill, model DCD806B, is built to tackle a wide range of materials with confident control. This tool-only option pairs a robust brushless motor with a hammer feature for masonry and a versatile two-speed transmission, designed to help you move through tasks efficiently on busy job sites. If you already rely on DEWALT 20V MAX® batteries and chargers, this tool integrates smoothly into your existing setup while delivering enhanced performance compared to earlier models.

Rethink Power and Control

Engineered for serious capability, the DCD806B delivers up to 109% more power than its predecessor, helping you complete demanding tasks with fewer passes. The ANTI-ROTATION System actively senses tool motion and shuts down if motion becomes excessive, supporting steadier handling during aggressive drilling. A bright LED workspace light ensures you can see every detail in dim corners, overhead spaces, or enclosed surfaces.

• Up to 109% more power than the previous generation for quicker drilling and driving.
• ANTI-ROTATION System enhances control with a clear LED indicator when engaged.
• 1/2 in. metal ratcheting chuck provides secure bit retention for confident setups.

Versatility for Different Materials

The drill features a high-speed transmission and a variable speed trigger with two settings (0–650 rpm and 0–2,000 rpm), plus a dedicated hammer mode for masonry work. This combination makes it suitable for concrete, wood, and metal tasks, letting you match speed to the material at hand.

• 2-speed transmission with a precise 0–650/0–2,000 rpm range.
• Hammer mode for efficient masonry drilling.
• 3-position LED work light with auto-shutoff for longer battery life.

For professionals who track tools across sites, the DCD806B is TOOL CONNECT CHIP READY when paired with the DEWALT Site Manager app (chip sold separately). This capability supports on-site asset management and quick location tracking, helping teams stay organized on larger projects.

Real-World Use and Practical Benefits

In daily use, you’ll notice the balance and feel of a tool designed to reduce fatigue during long sessions. The drill’s power and control help you move quickly from pilot holes to full-drill sequences, while the reliable chuck and integrated lighting keep work progressing smoothly even in tight spaces. The tool-only format gives you the flexibility to pair it with your existing batteries and chargers, aligning with how many pros structure their toolkit. A practical benchmark of performance—up to 175 holes per charge under typical use—gives you a sense of pacing for project planning, while results may vary with material, bit size, and technique.

Built for a Tough, Everyday Workflow

As a member of DEWALT’s premier 20V MAX XR line, this hammer drill is designed to deliver dependable performance when the going gets tough. The tool’s rugged construction, secure bit retention, and smart lighting work together to support productivity on busy sites without promising results, but with clear possibilities for faster, more precise drilling and consistent outcomes.
