SENCO 10C0002N DuraSpin DS322-18V 3" Cordless Auto-Feed Screwdriver Kit
Fasten subflooring, exterior decking, and commercial sheathing up to 4X faster with the SENCO 10C0002N DuraSpin® DS322-18V 3" 2,500 RPM Cordless Auto-Feed Screwdriver Kit. Engineered for high-production flooring contractors, framers, and drywall crews, this cordless collated screw gun eliminates hand-setting fasteners while delivering consistent countersinking in tough woods, engineered lumber, and heavy-gauge steel framing.
Powered by an efficient, high-torque brushless motor, the DS322-18V drives #6 to #12 gauge collated screws from 1" to 3" in length. A dual-speed selector allows you to run at 2,500 RPM for rapid decking and subflooring installations or drop to 1,600 RPM for high-torque drilling into heavy structural steel. SENCO's patented corner-fit feed system and "feed-on-return" mechanism keep screws precisely aligned with the bit tip before driving, maximizing your line of sight and granting tight access into corners without jamming. The tool-free quick-release system detaches the nosepiece in seconds to expose the bit for effortless screw back-outs.
Key Features:
- High-Torque Brushless Motor: Delivers 70 in-lbs of torque with dual selectable speeds (2,500 RPM for wood/sheathing, 1,600 RPM for heavy-gauge steel).
- 1" to 3" Fastener Range: Accommodates #6 through #12 collated strip screws for subfloor, decking, drywall, crating, and steel studs.
- Patented Corner-Fit Technology: Compact nose profile provides clear line-of-sight and tight clearance against wall corners and baseboards.
- Feed-On-Return Mechanism: Pre-indexes the next screw directly in line with the drive bit on the return stroke for smooth, jam-free rapid firing.
- Tool-Free Detachable Feed System: Quickly unclips the auto-feed head to expose the driver bit for fast screw removal and reversing.
- Tool-Free Depth-of-Drive with Lock: Fine-tune screw recess depth with a thumb dial that locks securely in place to prevent wandering countersinks.
- Quick-Slide Bit Release: Swap out worn Phillips or Square drive bits in seconds with a simple sliding latch button.

Frequently Asked Questions
What fastener lengths and types are compatible with the DS322-18V?
The DS322-18V drives #6, #7, #8, #10, and #12 gauge collated screws from 1 inch to 3 inches in length. It accepts standard SENCO DuraSpin collated plastic strips as well as universally compatible plastic-collated brand strips.
Why does this model have two speed settings (2,500 and 1,600 RPM)?
The 2,500 RPM setting is ideal for rapid fastening into wood framing, plywood subflooring, and composite decking. The lower 1,600 RPM setting increases sustained torque to drill through heavy-gauge metal studs and structural steel without burning out screw tips or stripping fastener heads.
How do I back out a misplaced or stripped screw?
The feed system features a quick-release collar that detaches the entire nosepiece in seconds without tools. This leaves the standard drive bit fully exposed so you can switch the tool into reverse and back out the screw immediately.
What is "Feed-on-Return" technology?
Traditional auto-feed screwdrivers push the screw forward as you press into the work, which can cause misalignment. SENCO's Feed-on-Return indexes the next screw directly in front of the drive bit on the backstroke, ensuring perfect bit engagement and reducing the risk of jammed strips.
Can this tool be used for drywall ceiling installations?
While capable of driving drywall screws, the DS322-18V is a high-torque 2,500 RPM model designed primarily for decking, subfloor, structural sheathing, and steel. For dedicated high-speed drywall board hanging, a 4,000 or 5,000 RPM model (like the DS225-18V) is typically preferred for maximum board-hanging speed.
