1. PRODUCT NAME

Hitachi Cordless Impact Driver, Model WH 12DAF

2. MARKETING OBJECTIVE

The current high-grade Model WH 12DM is obtaining high evaluation in the cordless impact driver market that is

expanding especially in Europe. The new Model WH 12DAF is a popular version that provides an excellent cost/

performance ratio, inheriting the well-reputed features of the Model WH 12DM such as soft grip and belt hook.

Vigorous sales promotion is anticipated with the introduction of the new Model WH 12DAF ahead of the

competitors.

3. APPLICATIONS

Tightening/loosening of small screws, tapping screws, wood screws, bolts, nuts, etc.

Drilling into wood and various other materials (with use of optional accessory drill chuck adapter).

[Applicable Markets]

Wood-product assembly: Tightening/loosening of wood screws

Construction industry: Assembly of scaffolding, roofing, aluminum sashes, fencing, etc.; removal of plastic cones

from concrete forms, mounting/removal of form ties; drilling into the wood frames of concrete forms, etc.

Manufacturing industry: Assembly work for automobiles, rolling stock, shipbuilding, agricultural machinery and

tools, industrial machines, steel furniture, etc.

Utility industry: Assembly and installation of electric equipment, plumbing facilities, air conditioning (duct

assembly, etc.), sanitary fixtures and various other facilities

Service industry: General repair work; installation of advertising aids, automobile repair, assembly of garages

and carports storage sheds, etc.

Various other assembly, construction or repair facilities

Convenient belt hook

Variable speed reversible

switch with electric brake

Max. torque 88 N•m

(780 in-lbs.)

4-1. Selling Point Descriptions

(1) Max. torque 88 N•m (780 in-lbs)

The maximum torque of the Model WH 12DAF is 88 N•m (780 in-lbs.) thanks to the optimum striking design

while maintaining high mechanical strength with the durable die-casting aluminum hammer case, etc.

(2) Soft-grip handle

The grip of the Model WH 12DAF is soft, slip-resistant and comfortable thanks to the soft resin (elastomer)

covered on the handle.

(3) Convenient belt hook

A hook is very convenient if there is no place to put the impact driver temporarily. Although various kinds of

hooks are on the market, there is a user demand for a standard accessory hook. To cope with this demand,

the Model WH 12DAF is equipped with the hook having the following features as a standard accessory.

The hook can be quickly slide out and can be slide in when not needed.

The hook is mountable on either side to cope with the use by either right-handed persons and left-handed

persons. The mounting position can be changed by using a flat-blade screwdriver or a coin.

The angle of the hook is adjustable in five steps (0, 20, 40, 60 and 80˚). The hook can be adjusted to the

optimum position according to the weight of the bit in use.

6-2. Tightening Torque

6-2-1. Screw Diameter and Appropriate Tightening Torque

Generally speaking, the appropriate tightening torque for a screw can be determined by the strength grade of the

screw and the material tightened. Tables 1 and 2, and Fig. 1 below list data relative to the strength grade of

various screws and the appropriate tightening torque. For further reference, appropriate tightening torque is

calculated with the following formula. Study and use this formula for accurate selection of tightening torque.

T=k•d•p

T: Appropriate tightening torque (kgf•cm)

d: Nominal diameter for the screw (mm)

p: Recommended axial tightening force to be applied to the screw (kgf)

p=rated axial stress (kgf/cm2) x 0.8 x effective sectional area of the thread (mm2)

K: Torque coefficient (0.17)
