Drill Kit Check product guide

BOSCH PS31-2A 12V Max Drill/Driver Kit

Compact drilling in cabinets and tight spaces

Choose this kit for furniture, cabinet hardware and small repairs when compact size and two batteries matter. Its 3/8 in chuck limits larger bit shanks, and a heavier-duty drill is a better fit for long structural screws or masonry holes.

Fit and limits

Strengths

  • Two batteries support alternating between use and charging

Caveats

  • No hammer mode for masonry drilling

Who this kit suits

This compact 12V Max drill/driver suits furniture, cabinet hardware, curtain rods, small repairs, overhead work and tight spaces. Bosch lists 265 in-lbs of maximum torque, speed ranges of 0 to 350 and 0 to 1,300 rpm, 20+1 clutch settings and a 7 in head length.

What comes in the box

Bosch lists the PS31 drill/driver, two 12V Max 2.0 Ah lithium-ion batteries, a BC330 charger, two screwdriver bits and a carrying bag. Two packs let one charge while the other is in use. Battery safety guidance recommends using only the batteries and chargers named by the tool maker.

Check these before buying

The 3/8 in single-sleeve three-jaw chuck accepts bit shanks no larger than 3/8 in, which matters when choosing larger drilling accessories. This is a compact drill/driver for lighter work; buyers planning long structural screws or masonry holes should choose a tool designed for those demands.
