Overview

At 20 volts, the WORX WX177L.2 cordless drill spins up to 1700 RPM and weighs about 3.83 kilograms with the battery attached. It suits general household drilling and driving rather than confirmed masonry or hammer drill work.

A 20 volt battery puts the WX177L.2 in WORX's mainstream cordless lineup, and 1700 RPM sits toward the faster end for a handheld drill, which typically favors quick driving over maximum torque. At 3.83 kilograms it stays close to the usual weight range for a compact cordless drill once the battery is fitted. No clutch settings or torque figures are listed, so twist force for tougher fasteners is not confirmed.

  • Voltage: 20V
  • Speed: 1700 RPM
  • Weight: 3.83 kg

Who it's for

Homeowners and DIY users after a cordless drill for everyday wood, drywall and light metal work. Not the right pick for anyone needing confirmed hammer drill function for masonry.

Strengths and trade-offs

Performance notes

Top speed of 1700 RPM points to a drill tuned for brisk driving rather than raw torque, and no clutch or torque setting count is listed to say how it handles tougher fasteners. At 3.83 kilograms with the battery on, it should feel manageable for one handed overhead use.
