Compact head for tight spaces

The Genesis GCQD38A is a 3/8" close-quarter drill built with a unique shape and compact head that reaches spots where standard drills cannot fit. Its 3.5 Amp motor and variable speed range of 0-1600 RPM suit tradespeople and DIY users who need controlled power in confined areas such as between joists, inside cabinets or around automotive components.

3.5 Amp motor and 0-1600 RPM range

The 3.5 Amp motor delivers enough torque for common wood, metal and plastic fastening tasks, while the variable speed trigger lets you match RPM to the material. The lock-on button reduces fatigue during repetitive drilling, and the power-on indicator confirms the tool is live. Heavy-duty auger bits or large hole saws will exceed the motor’s continuous capacity.

3/8" keyed chuck and corded operation

The 3/8" chuck limits maximum accessory shank diameter, so larger bits require a different tool. As a corded drill it depends on mains supply or a generator; there is no battery platform to manage. The 11.0 in x 5.5 in x 3.0 in profile and 3.5 lb weight keep it manoeuvrable, but the fixed cable restricts reach unless an extension lead is used.

Questions about this item

Will the 3.5 Amp motor and compact head fit beside my older 1/2" drill in a crowded tool bag?

At 11.0 in long, 5.5 in tall and 3.0 in wide, the GCQD38A is smaller than most 1/2" drills, so it slides into tight bag pockets alongside bulkier tools.

How do I confirm the variable speed is delivering 0-1600 RPM after first use?

The power-on indicator lights when the trigger is pressed; squeeze the trigger gently and listen for smooth acceleration up to full speed without hesitation.

Does the box include drill bits or a side handle, or must I buy them separately?

The package contains only the GCQD38A drill itself; 3/8" bits, a side handle and any accessories are sold separately.
