Concrete Drilling: suitable for drilling into concrete surfaces.
Steel Drilling: efficient for drilling into steel materials.
Wood Drilling: capable of drilling into wood with ease.
Screw Driving: useful for driving screws in various materials.
A normal drill operates by spinning its drill bit to create holes or drive screws, applying a steady rotational force known as torque. It’s great for general drilling tasks and light screwdriving on materials like wood, plastic, or metal.
On the other hand, an impact drill combines this rotational force with rapid, powerful bursts of concussive force, which significantly increases the torque. This makes impact drills especially effective at driving long screws or bolts into tougher materials and loosening stubborn fasteners. Impact drills are usually more compact and use a different type of chuck designed for quick bit changes. While normal drills are versatile and suitable for most household tasks, impact drills are preferred for heavy-duty fastening jobs that require extra power.
