Senco DS5550-AC Collated Screw Gun 5000rpm 25-55mm

The Senco DS5550-AC collated screw gun is part of the Duraspin range, which has been the go-to choice for drylining gangs for years. Plug it in, load up a strip of collated screws, and it will drive them at 5000rpm without you having to think about it much. That is genuinely useful when you have got a full floor of partitioning to shoot off or a ceiling to line before end of play.

Running at 600W and available in both 110V and 240V, the DS5550-AC suits site conditions where battery tools would drain faster than your patience. No charging intervals, no swapping packs around. Where you have got a transformer on site or a reliable mains supply, this is a straightforward tool to reach for. The 3 metre lead gives you reasonable range without trailing half a drum of extension cable behind you.

What the Senco DS5550-AC Gets Right on Site

The depth of drive is adjustable and locks in place, which matters when you are doing repeated countersinks into plasterboard. Getting that consistent finish across a hundred fixings is exactly what the depth lock is there for. The tool-free quick-slide nose adjustment means you are not hunting for a hex key every time you need to tweak it, which is a small thing that adds up over a long day.

Corner-Fit technology lets the nose of the gun get into wall corners without forcing an awkward angle. If you have ever tried screwing into a corner return with a standard drill driver, you will know why this is a worthwhile feature rather than just a name on a spec sheet. The patented clutch is built for longevity under the kind of repetitive use that collated screw guns are put through day in, day out.

Reverse action is included, trigger switch operation is simple, and there is a reversible belt hook for whichever side you prefer to clip it. Supplied with one square bit, one Phillips bit, a carry case and an operator’s manual. Weighs 2.13kg.
