The compact lightweight tool for drywall construction The new FLEX 12 V cordless drywall screwdriver DW 37 12-EC

New products

Steinheim, August 2024 - FLEX is expanding its portfolio with an innovative 12V drywall screwdriver DW 37 12-EC that has been specially developed to meet the needs of drywall and timber construction work. This compact, lightweight tool combines powerful performance with ease of use and accurate precision. A competitive price completes the impressive overall package.

The FLEX 12V cordless drywall screwdriver DW 37 12-EC sets new standards in drywall construction with its impressive combination of light weight and ergonomic design. Weighing less than 1 kg including the 2.5 Ah battery, this screwdriver is the lightest in its class and enables fatigue-free working over long periods of time.

Innovative functions for maximum efficiency

Besides being lightweight, the FLEX 12V drywall screwdriver also incorporates the latest technology to make drywall work even more efficient:

  • Auto-start function: This function ensures energy-saving operation by automatically starting the motor as soon as pressure is applied to the screwdriver. This means that energy is only consumed when it is actually needed.

  • Pulse mode: With Pulse mode, protruding screws can be countersunk precisely and in a controlled manner without damaging the material. This special screwdriver allows the screw-in depth of the screws to be limited so as not to break through the plasterboard.

  • "In-Your-Control" throttle switch: This intuitive control system allows the user to optimise the screwdriver’s speed to the task at hand for precise and safe use.

  • LED work light with afterglow function: An integrated LED light ensures optimum visibility, even in dark corners and rooms. The afterglow function ensures that the light remains on for a few seconds even after the trigger is released.

Comfortable use pact and ergonomic handling                                                                     

A specially developed short handle on the DW 37 12-EC ensures optimum balance and handling, which means that the tool always sits comfortably in the hand even when it’s being used for long periods.

For continuous work, the drywall screwdriver also has a lockable button which, in combination with the auto-start function, enables very convenient and uninterrupted operation. The screw magazine from FLEX's 18-volt series is also compatible with the DW 37 12-EC, eliminating the need for tedious repositioning of screws. And using the screw magazine also gives you the option of two-handed operation, which can help to avoid incorrect screw fastening due to a crooked screw attachment in one-handed operation. The removable and adjustable depth stop is also compatible. For added convenience and mobility, the screwdriver can be easily attached to your belt so that it’s always to hand.

A competitive price for professional quality

With the new 12V drywall screwdriver DW 37 12-EC, FLEX offers a professional solution at a competitive price. Its innovative design and sophisticated functions make it the first choice for craftsmen who value quality and efficiency.

The product name is made up of "DW" for "Dry Wall", the idle speed of 3700 rpm and the 12 volt system with brushless motor ("EC" means electronically commutated).

The DW 37 12-EC from FLEX will be available in stores from September.
