§ FAQ

What is the difference between the DWE4887N and DWE4887?

The DWE4887N has a paddle switch without a lock-on button, meeting OSHA and industrial safety requirements. The DWE4887 includes a lock-on button for sustained hands-free operation. Both share the same 4.2 Amp motor and 25,000 RPM speed.

Does the DWE4887N include the 1/8-in. collet like the DWE4887?

Why would I choose the DWE4887N over the DWE4887?

Choose the DWE4887N for industrial or commercial job sites where no-lock-on switches are required by safety protocols, OSHA regulations, or employer policy. The no-lock-on design ensures the tool stops immediately when the operator releases the switch.
