Heavy-Duty Power, Professional Build Quality, Versatile Performance — The CAT DX16 850W Impact Drill When the job demands a corded impact drill with the motor power, build quality, and drilling capacity to handle the most demanding professional applications without hesitation, the CAT DX16 850W Impact Drill is engineered to deliver. Combining an 850-watt motor with a metal keyless chuck, aluminium gear housing, and generous drilling capacities across wood, masonry, and steel, the DX16 is a heavy-duty drilling tool built for tradespeople and advanced users who need reliable, consistent performance day after day on site. 850 Watts of Heavy-Duty Drilling Power The DX16 is driven by an 850-watt motor producing a no-load speed of 3,000 RPM and an impact rate of 48,000 beats per minute — a combination of rotary speed and percussive force that handles the full range of drilling materials with authority. Whether working through structural softwood, dense engineering brick, reinforced concrete, or mild steel, the DX16 maintains consistent power output throughout each drilling cycle, producing clean, accurate holes without bogging down under the sustained loads that heavy professional drilling generates. At 2.45kg, the DX16 has the weight and stability of a genuinely capable heavy-duty drill while remaining practical for all-day site use. Professional Chuck and Gearbox Construction The 13mm metal keyless chuck delivers the best of both worlds — the speed and convenience of tool-free bit changes combined with the grip strength and durability of metal construction. Bits are secured firmly and concentrically for accurate, wobble-free drilling, and the metal chuck body maintains its precision and gripping performance through thousands of bit changes under heavy professional use. The aluminium gear housing is an equally important quality indicator — providing superior structural rigidity, impact resistance, and thermal management compared to plastic housings, protecting the gearbox internals during the sustained heavy loads that 850W drilling generates and ensuring the DX16 continues to perform reliably throughout its working life. Precision Speed Control for Every Material and Application The variable speed trigger provides smooth, progressive control from zero to full 3,000 RPM — a level of speed control that makes a measurable difference to hole quality and accuracy across every material. Slow-speed starts prevent bit wander on smooth metal surfaces and avoid tear-out on timber veneers, laminates, and engineered boards. Progressive speed increase allows the operator to match drilling pace to material density, bit diameter, and required hole quality. Combined with the forward and reverse selector, the DX16 becomes a practical screwdriving tool as well as a powerful drill — driving and extracting screws, backing out stuck bits, and releasing seized fixings without needing to reach for a separate driver. Drilling Capacity That Covers Professional Requirements Maximum capacities of 35mm in wood, 20mm in masonry, and 13mm in steel provide the reach needed for the complete range of drilling tasks across construction, renovation, electrical, and plumbing work. Large-diameter clearance holes in structural timber, anchor holes in brickwork and concrete, cable routes through dense masonry, pilot and clearance holes in steel sections — the DX16 handles all of them with the power and precision needed to deliver clean, accurate results consistently. The 35mm wood capacity in particular makes the DX16 well suited to the larger-diameter boring requirements of joinery, cabinet making, and structural carpentry work. Built for Comfort During Extended Professional Use The rubberised grip zone wraps the handle in a vibration-absorbing, non-slip surface that keeps the drill comfortable and secure throughout prolonged drilling sessions — reducing the cumulative hand and wrist fatigue that heavy drilling inevitably generates over the course of a working day. The auxiliary handle provides essential two-handed stability and torque control during the heavier drilling tasks in masonry and steel — significantly improving both safety and accuracy when drilling at maximum capacity. The metal depth gauge — more robust and durable than the plastic alternatives found on lesser drills — provides precise, repeatable hole depth control for consistent anchor hole production and safe drilling through thin materials.
