Irwin have redesigned their storage cases to make you life that little bit easier. The cases now have clear lids so you can keep track of your bits with just a glance.

So what else do we love about these cases?

Each case has a pivoting mechanism that not only holds bits securely, so you’ll always know they’re in place but it also makes them easier to remove.

Innovation is the hallmark of Irwin Tools. Beginning in 1885 with development of the first Irwin auger bit, and progressing with the introduction of Vise-Grip locking tools, Blue Groove flat bits, and Quick-Grip bar clamps, Irwin has been at the forefront of the industry, creating better tools in a better way. For more than 100 years, this underlying standard has made Irwin a household name for strong, professional tools. 

The Makita DUB363ZV is a handy 18v twin brushless 3 in 1 tool which is great for outdoor clean ups.

The variable speed trigger allows the you to find the ideal speed whilst the cruise control function allows you to set and adjust the speed easily. No need to constantly engage the trigger.
