Take on a wider range of larger jobs
SAFETY
Jobsite safety is paramount. Our Perform & Protect stamp lets your team know that you've tools that exceed safety standards and lets everyone on site know that you're fully compliant and safe.
Informs users that tools are fully compliant
Inform construction sites that you are fully compliant
Mitigates risks associated with prolonged tool use
DUST MANAGEMENT
Reduced risk of dust inhalation and cleaner workspaces.
VIBRATIONS
Vibration levels reduced by up to 50%, lowering exposure to risk.
SAFETY CONTROLS
Tools can bind up in normal drilling or cutting applications which can cause injury to the user, or damage the tool.
LANYARD READY
Your last line of defence when tools fall.
CLEANER EFFICIENCY

Improved tool performance, reliability, and longevity
A cleaner and safer work environment
Reduced risk of dust inhalation
DUST MANAGEMENT ELEMENTS
Automatic pulsing filters prevent filter blinding and maintain efficiency.
A universal system connecting tools to dust extraction shrouds.
Wireless remote operation of tools with integrated Wireless Tool Control.
M-Class certified conforming to stringent jobsite guidelines.
DUST MANAGEMENT PRODUCTS
A STEADY HAND
Prolonged vibration exposure leads to common disorders like carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) and white finger (VWF). Our Active Vibration Control features include counterbalance systems, floating handles and more to considerably lower levels of triaxial vibrations. This helps deliver up to 50% lower vibrations compared to standard model power tools as measured against EN 60745 1:2006.
Correctly used, tools in the Perform & Protect range ensure user exposure is kept below the Exposure Action Value limit. Tools recording a 5m/s² vibration can be used up to 2 hours/day to reach the exposure action value (EAV) and up to 8 hours/day to reach the exposure limit value (ELV). Increased time and comfort of use means you and your team can perform heavy-duty tasks for longer with greater safety.
Perform heavy duty tasks for longer
Increased user comfort levels
Enhanced team safety levels, reliability, and longevity
Reduces vibration felt by the user at handles by 20%.

POWER IS NOTHING WITHOUT CONTROL
High speed, high-performance tools can jam when cutting or drilling risking injury to the user and tool. Our Perform & Protect range features integrated, advanced torque control technology as standard.
Anti-rotation E-Clutch systems detect rotational motion and minimise any sudden torque reaction, while electronic Kickback Brakes in our grinders automatically shut off power when a pinch, stall or bind up occurs. LED indicators and overload sensors also feature.
SAFETY CONTROL ELEMENTS
Wireless remote operation of tools with integrated Wireless Tool Control.
Automatically shuts the tool down in bind-up situations to prevent injury.
Automatic grinder shut off when a pinch, stall, or bind-up occurs.

YOUR LAST LINE OF DEFENSE WHEN A TOOL FALLS
When working at heights on the jobsite it’s important to adopt integrated solutions offering ultimate protection and secure the tool in case it drops. Lanyard ready integrated solutions offer options to tether select corded and cordless tools to rigid structures on jobsites when working at height with a maximum lanyard length of 2m, helping to secure the tool in case it is dropped*. All Perform & Protect products are designed to consistently exceed health and safety regulations without compromising on performance.
*See individual product details for lanyard connection methods. Lanyards sold separately. Additional safety instructions included in manual.
Airlock Compatibility
Each extractor unit in the AirLock™ range has specific attachments available to connect to a broad range of DEWALT tools.
