IMPACT CONNECT: A new line of attachments that support worksite speed & efficiency

By Michelle Froese | October 31, 2022

DEWALT, a Stanley Black & Decker brand, is introducing the DEWALT IMPACT CONNECT system — a new line of attachments to quickly convert select impact drivers into fast, powerful cutting tools.

The newly released DEWALT IMPACT CONNECT copper pipe and PVC/PEX pipe cutter attachments quickly convert select impact drivers into fast, powerful cutting tools

The DEWALT IMPACT CONNECT line is a revolutionary new addition to the wide range of tools and accessories tradespeople typically reach for on the job site,” shared Doug Redpath, president, Hand Tools, Accessories & Storage, at Stanley Black & Decker. “Instead of purchasing separate dedicated pipe cutting tools, IMPACT CONNECT attachments leverage the power of users’ current impact drivers to perform the job quickly with less cutting effort.”

Designed to improve user productivity and efficiency, the DEWALT IMPACT CONNECT system is rolling out with two attachments that quickly attach to select DEWALT 20V MAX* and other pro-grade 18V Impact Drivers, turning them into powerful cutting tools:

  • The Copper Pipe Cutter Attachment (DWACPRIR)
  • The PVC/PEX Pipe Cutter Attachment (DWAPVCIR)

These are the first offerings within this DEWALT platform and are ideal for pipe fitting, plumbing, HVAC, and home renovation. The advantage is that these attachments require 100X less cutting effort than a manual cutter and with the quick-change brace system, the attachments are connected in seconds allowing for seamless conversion from pipe cutting tools to a traditional impact driver.

The Copper Pipe Cutter Attachment features:

  • 4X faster cuts with up to 1 in. maximum cut capacity
  • A 1/2 in. and 3/4 in. cutting wheel optimized for cutting performance and speed (1 in. cutting wheel sold separately)
  • An ultra-sharp blade to make clean efficient cut through types K, L, and M copper pipe
  • Exceptional maneuverability with 360-degree rotation to cut at any angle

The PVC/PEX Pipe Cutter Attachment features:

  • 6X faster cuts† with up to a 2 in. cut capacity in schedule 80 PVC
  • An ultra-sharp blade for clean, square cuts
  • Exceptional maneuverability with 360-degree rotation to cut at any angle
