POWERFUL 600W MOTOR WITH 3,000 RPM & 48,000 BPM IMPACT RATE The CAT DX175 delivers impressive drilling and impact performance through a robust 600-watt motor reaching a no-load speed of 3,000 RPM and an impact rate of 48,000 beats per minute providing the speed and percussive force needed for efficient drilling through wood, concrete, brick, and steel. Despite its compact and lightweight 1.55kg form factor, the DX175 punches well above its weight class, making it equally suited to professional tradespeople needing a reliable secondary drill and homeowners tackling demanding DIY projects with confidence. VARIABLE SPEED CONTROL & FORWARD/REVERSE FUNCTION FOR FULL VERSATILITY The fully variable speed trigger gives you complete control over drilling speed from a standing start to full 3,000 RPM, allowing you to match the pace of drilling precisely to the material, bit size, and application at hand. The forward and reverse function adds genuine versatility driving and extracting screws, backing out stuck drill bits, and reversing out of blind holes quickly and without damage. Together, variable speed and forward/reverse make the DX175 a highly capable and adaptable tool for a far broader range of tasks than a simple fixed-speed drill could achieve. 13MM METAL KEYED CHUCK FOR SECURE, PRECISE BIT GRIP The 13mm metal keyed chuck provides a robust, precise, and secure grip on drill bits across the full range of shank sizes, ensuring bits are held firmly and concentrically for accurate, wobble-free drilling in all materials. The metal construction of the chuck offers significantly greater durability and longevity than keyless plastic alternatives, maintaining consistent gripping performance under the sustained use and occasional rough handling that professional and regular DIY use inevitably involves and the included chuck key is always at hand for fast, secure tightening. IMPRESSIVE DRILLING CAPACITY 25MM WOOD, 13MM CONCRETE, 10MM STEEL Despite its compact dimensions, the DX175 delivers maximum drilling capacities of 25mm in wood, 13mm in concrete, and 10mm in steel covering the full range of drilling tasks encountered in construction, renovation, electrical, plumbing, and general carpentry work. From drilling clearance holes in structural timber and masonry fixings into brick and concrete to boring pilot holes and clearance holes in steel, the DX175 has the capacity and the power to handle the everyday drilling demands of trade and DIY users without compromise. ERGONOMIC RUBBER GRIP & COMPLETE ACCESSORY KIT DEPTH GAUGE, AUXILIARY HANDLE & CHUCK KEY The rubberised ergonomic grip absorbs vibration and provides a secure, comfortable hold during extended drilling sessions, reducing hand fatigue and maintaining control throughout every application. The included auxiliary handle provides two-handed stability and control during heavier drilling tasks in concrete and masonry, while the plastic depth gauge ensures consistent, accurate hole depths for fixing anchors, shelf brackets, and other depth-critical applications a complete, ready-to-use package that delivers real practical value straight from the box.
