Our take on the 18V SubCompact Brushless 1/2" Drill/Driver Kit

The RIDGID R87012K is a subcompact 18V brushless drill/driver built for lighter, tighter work than RIDGID's full-size 18V brushless model. It delivers 500 in./lbs. of torque through a 24-position clutch and a 1/2 in. chuck, and RIDGID rates it 15% more compact and 25% lighter than the R86114. It runs on any RIDGID 18V battery, so it slots into an existing RIDGID kit. Compared with subcompact rivals from Milwaukee, DeWalt and Makita, it trades some torque and refinement for a lower-cost way into a compact brushless drill.
