What Are DeWalt Body Only Tools Used For?

Expanding your toolkit without duplicating batteries and chargers, saving on cost and van space.

Adding specialised tools to your collection for specific tasks like routing, sanding, or cutting.
Offering flexibility for multi-tool users who need a reliable backup without the extra weight.

Choosing the Right DeWalt Body Only Tool

Here's the deal for picking the right body only tool: match it to the job, not the other way around. Don't buy a tool you'll rarely use.

1. Task Specificity

If you're frequently cutting through dense materials, opt for a high-power saw. For precision work, a router or sander might be more appropriate.

2. Battery Compatibility

Make sure the tool is compatible with your existing DeWalt batteries to ensure seamless swapping between tools on the job.
