The description says it is a 'right angle flex shaft' but in the picture it appears to be pointing to the left - is this the right or left version?

You have to use it in the down position. Then it switches to a right angle flex shaft, but only if turned clockwise. Might work if you turned it counter-clockwise, but never tried it that way.

Does the phillips bit on the end come out? mine won't. i don't see any way this tool can be used with a drill bit? so, phillips screwdriver use only?

Push in on the front silver collar, the bit will pop out. Works with all hex quick release bits

can you use hex shank nut drivers with this too? like a 7/16 bit or just screwdriver bits?

If it's got a 1/4" shaft, this thing will turn it.

The bit seems to almost sink all the way into the shaft. There seems to be no way to tighten bit in the shaft. Is this how it is supposed to be?

You won't be able to "tighten" the bit up, push down on the bit and it will "lock" in place, push down on the silver ring to "unlock". The bit is designed to sink low to give maximum clearance in tight spaces and to be able to hold the screw between your thumb and index finger if need be and space allows. If you don't need that much space you can always use longer bits.

Great product

Works great! Tough enough to withstand when the screw is tight and you over torque it.

DeWalt Right Angle 12 inch Flex Drill Attachment - DWARAFS

This flex shaft right angle 12 inch drill attachment is an excellent high quality product, made by DeWalt! This item, with the aid of a portable power drill, can tighten up bolts in tight places, where no other option for tightenining is useful!

Where has this been.

Didn’t even know this tool existed until I saw it in the tool bag of my plumber. Excellent at getting to tight fit screws. Dies require two hands to use one on the drill the other to hold the tip firmly against the screw.Works great.

Makes Tight Spaces a Breeze

This right-angle attachment is a lifesaver when working in cramped spots. Used it for cabinet installs and it handled the job smoothly. The flex shaft is sturdy and doesn't wobble. A must-have for any toolbox if you do DIY or professional work.

Brilliant tool, well worth the cost!

I bought this to install an aluminum fence. The screws for each panel were behind the fence and are not easy to get to from the back. This tool worked great and allowed me to get to the screw holes when it was impossible to get a drill back there! There are cheaper alternatives out there but they're not built like the Dewalt. This thing is heavy duty!

Dewalt, strong material manufacturing!

Built with strong materials that last and usually doesn't break under everyday use! Just insert in any power drill and tighten to hold and it will do the job easily!

Worked great in a pinch.

Worked great in a pinch. It's rugged and works fine. The little handle is a surprising plus.
