At first glance, the DeWalt DCF622 looks like a number of other cordless drywall screwguns. The fact of the matter is it’s not. For one, it’s not just built for driving drywall screws. It’s rated to handle all kinds of screwdriving tasks in metal and wood, including metal roof installation and metal to metal fastening. The 622’s given name tells us more. Officially dubbed the DeWalt 20V Max XR Versa-Clutch Adjustable Torque Screwgun (wow that’s a mouthful!), the new driver features the Versa-Cutch system.
Now let’s be honest – having an adjustable clutch on a drill/driver is hardly a feature worth talking about. We expect it. The DeWalt DCF622 brings the idea to its screwgun with the same goal of reducing the number of damaged fasteners. The collar twists like a drill, though it’s a lower profile front like you’d expect from this class of tool.
The good thing is you’ll be able to harness the power the tool has to drive metal to metal fasteners so you’re not out of control in wood. The DeWalt 20V Max XR Versa-Clutch Screwgun is part of the XR line, so you’re getting their brushless motor in the deal. It also has a grip position directly behind the driver with and a lock on switch for users that prefer to get away from the pistol grip.
There’s a pretty full feature set you can read through below.
