Corded Drills

Corded drills deliver constant power and are ideal for drilling through tough materials or when you need extended runtime.  They often feature keyed or keyless chucks, side handles and variable speed triggers.  Hammer action models add a percussive blow for drilling into concrete and brick, while rotary hammer drills use SDS chucks and pneumatic mechanisms for heavy masonry work.

Why choose a corded drill over a cordless one?

Corded drills offer:

  • Unlimited runtime—perfect for continuous, repetitive tasks

  • Consistent power without worrying about battery charge

  • Higher torque and speed at lower cost, especially in entry-level or heavy-duty models
    They're ideal for workshops, fabrication settings, or job sites with reliable access to mains power.

What types of corded drills are available?

There are several types:

  • Standard rotary drills – for drilling wood, plastic, and metal

  • Hammer drills – add percussion action for brick, stone, and light concrete

  • Drill mixers – built for stirring paint, mortar, or adhesives

  • High-torque low-speed drills – ideal for larger bits and hole saws in wood or steel
    The best model depends on your material and drilling application.

What features should I look for in a corded drill?

Key features to consider:

  • Power rating (watts): 500W for light use, 750–1100W for more demanding jobs

  • Variable speed and reverse for control in drilling and screwdriving

  • Chuck type: keyed for strong grip, or keyless for fast bit changes

  • Hammer function (if needed for masonry work)

  • Side handle and depth stop for stability and consistent drilling depth
    Also check cord length and ergonomics, especially if you work overhead or in awkward spaces.
