The HawkNose™ cordless drill module from Duckbill deals with the following facts. First, your drill is a crucial tool – you need to keep it handy. Second, depending on power, runtime, and manufacturer, your drill weighs somewhere between 4 and 8 pounds. Third, wherever you hang it on the left or right, there's little real estate left on your belt for critical fasteners and hand tools. And fourth, you need to balance the weight you carry to protect your back.

Duckbill designed the HawkNose™ with these benefits.

  • The angled hawk-nosed design captures and settles the tools' center of gravity – so that your body and your belt won't take an unbalanced strain.
  • The double'-strut MaxCon™ docking system distributes the balanced weight of the tool in a perfectly vertical orientation either at the side of your body or at the base of your back.
  • The HawkNose™ module is crafted to accommodate any 3/8" or 1/2" pistol-grip style cordless drill or hammer drill in 12V, 14.4V, 15.6V, 18V, 19.2V, 24v or 28V configurations from the most popular manufacturers.
  • The "no-look" wide-mouth top opening is flared down and out to make drill access and retrieval easy, direct and natural – no need to fuss with hard to reach levers, special maneuvers, clicks or locks when youčre above ground, in tight quarters or wearing gloves.
  • Left handed or right handed models available when worn on the hip of a Duckbill belt
  • 2Č nylon & Velcroź band to hold removable Fast Select Outrigger-100 pouch. Perfect for keeping screws, or wire nuts quickly accessable.

Engineered HawkNose™ design is balanced.

As the photo illustrates, even when held by a single strap, the HawkNose™ with its MaxCon™ docking system, remains perfectly balanced with no weight shift or tilting caused by the drill.

Cordless drill manufacturers design their product to be comfortable to hold – not to wear. Duckbill takes the opposite approach. You're wearing most of your tools more often than youčre using them. The Duckbill HawkNose™, with its double strut docking design combined with the SPMM™ solution, reduces muscular skeletal pain from the 40 – 60 hours a week of wearing an unbalanced personal tool rig.
