Dewalt has a new DWARA120 Right Angle Attachment that should be coming out soon.
The DWARA120 Right Angle Attachment is the updated version of the DWARA100 which is also impact ready but builds on the design by making it slimmer, now with a head length of only 1.5 inch. This allows it to fit into even tighter spots than before. Dewalt also claims it lasts 5x than it’s competitors such as Milwaukee’s own right angle attachment however that claim was also on the older DWARA100 model so it’s longevity is about the same as before.
Expect the DWARA120 Right Angle Attachment to hit stores soon for around $20.

Any updates to the bit retention mechanism? The 100’s magnet isn’t the storngest. Not problematically weak by any means, but I’ve wished I were a bit stronger on occasion.
No pun intended
Hard to tell at this point since they make no mention of a stronger magnet used compared to the previous model. All that is mentioned from their manufacturers description regarding the magnet is the mention of “Robust magnetism is projected through the unit to give users fastener retention, enhancing the overall user experience and functionality” – Dewalt.
Shame it wasn’t here sooner. Just bought my dad the DWARA100 a few months ago as a gift. I have the DWARAFS, the flex shaft version, myself. The head isn’t as low profile, but that flex shaft really gets into tight places well. Use it quite a bit on my M12 hex driver.
How do you like the Dewalt Flexshaft version? Does it lose any torque during transfer?
I still have one made by Kobalt that came with the original double drive and it is terrible. All it is, is a coil that absorbs torque instead of distributing it to the fastener. But then again, it’s not intended for anything remotely considered high torque.
dwara120 has 2 packaging, one with 5x longer life and one with 10x longer life. Is that any different in strong between that two ?
thanks
