TOOL CONTROL FEATURES

LANYARD READY

DEWALT offers several products that provide the user more control in a bind-up situation than standard clutches and side handles provide. Also provided on select tools are connection options to utilize a lanyard for tethering to rigid structures on jobsites.

CONTROL WHEN YOU NEED IT

Select DEWALT drills and grinders come equipped with the Anti-Rotation E-CLUTCH® System. Compared to standard clutches, E-CLUTCH® helps minimize sudden torque reaction in drills by detecting the motion of the tool and shutting it down in bind-up situations. In grinders, E-CLUTCH® shuts the motor down in under a tenth of a second when a pinch/stall is detected.
