DeWALT DCF887N-XJ Impact Driver

Faster, more reliable fastening on site

The DeWALT DCF887 XR impact driver delivers purposeful performance for driving screws and fasteners in construction and maintenance applications. High-impact action paired with a 6.35 mm (1/4in) hex quick-change bit holder enables rapid bit swaps and steady fastening, reducing time spent on repetitive tasks. Short bursts of power and controlled torque translate into consistent connections in timber, metal and composite substrates.

Confident grip for long shifts

An ergonomic grip handle with rubber overmould provides secure contact and reduces hand fatigue during prolonged use. The compact form and balanced mass minimise strain when working above head height or in tight cavities, allowing steady control from first screw to last without compromising accuracy.

Compatible power for seamless workflow

Compatibility with DEWALT XR 18V batteries places the driver within a broad cordless ecosystem. Lithium ion chemistry and rechargeable operation ensure the tool is ready for repeated site cycles when paired with standard XR batteries, keeping downtime to a minimum and allowing the fuel source to be shared across other XR 18V devices.

Compact dimensions that fit the toolbox

Measured at 217 mm in height, 162 mm in width and 87 mm in depth, the driver offers a compact footprint for transport and storage. A weight of 1,208 g strikes a balance between solidity and manoeuvrability, making the tool easy to position in confined spaces while retaining the mass needed for stable impact delivery.

Built for professional conditions

Rust-proof construction extends service life where exposure to dust and moisture is likely on site. The hex chuck type and drop-in bit holder support common fastener profiles and speed up workflow by accepting standard bits without adapters, meeting the practical needs of tradespeople and maintenance teams.

What is supplied and how it fits into a kit

The delivery includes one DeWALT DCF887 XR impact driver, specified for use with DEWALT XR 18V batteries. The compact driver functions as a dedicated fastening tool within a cordless set-up, complementing drills and other 18V devices for a coordinated kit that suits busy job sites.

Practical considerations for selection

Weight, dimensions and the 6.35 mm hex fitting are stated clearly for quick compatibility checks with existing equipment and storage constraints. The combination of ergonomic handling and cordless operation positions the tool as a practical choice where mobility, frequent bit changes and reliable fastening are priorities.
