PORTER-CABLE 2610 3/8-Inch Keyless Drill

Amazon.com With its burly 7 amp motor, Porter-Cable's 3/8-inch drill enters the market as a powerful, smartly designed contender. Backed by 100-percent ball-bearing construction, this drill's motor supplies up to 2,500 rpm, making it a smart pick for high-speed applications. The drill feels right in the hand, too, with good balance, a comfortable grip, and a nicely integrated groove for your thumb and forefinger, so it's easy to operate the tool with your hand directly behind the bit. The keyless chuck allows for quick bit changes: to tighten, simply hold the chuck with two hands and ratchet down. A handy adjustable belt clip mounts to either side, accommodating righties and lefties, and lets you quickly hook the drill to your tool belt when you need to free your hands up, a more comfortable arrangement compared to the top-mounted clips you'll find on other brands. The tool is built to last, too, with a strong, lightweight magnesium bearing plate, steel gears, and a tough cast-aluminum gear housing. There's no secret to creating a solid corded drill. Just build it tough. With its new line of corded drills, Porter-Cable certainly did that. --Jon Groebner From the Manufacturer This totally new 3/8-inch drill was designed with the three things you look for in a corded power tool: power, performance and comfort.
