Brushless Performance
Pro-grade power in a compact, lightweight body
The Flex PD 2G 18.0-EC delivers 65 Nm of torque through a brushless motor managed by Flex's Electronic Management System, all in a 1.2 kg tool that fits where larger drills cannot. Whether you are mounting equipment in a workshop, drilling into masonry or driving hardware on a bodyshop setup, this drill handles the full workload without the bulk.
Why the PD 2G
Four reasons professionals choose this drill
Engineered for efficiency, built to last.
-
Brushless EMS Motor
The Electronic Management System protects the motor under load and extends service life beyond what a brushed motor can offer.
-
Compact & Lightweight
At 1.2 kg with a 208 mm body, the PD 2G reaches confined spaces and reduces fatigue on long jobs.
-
24-Step Torque Control
Fine-tune torque from 1 to 24 to match the material, from delicate cabinetry fixings to structural hardware.
-
Full 18V System Compatibility
Runs on any Flex 18V battery pack - 2.5, 5.0 or 8.0 Ah - so your investment grows with the rest of your Flex tools.

Questions
Frequently asked
What batteries does the Flex PD 2G 18.0-EC come with in this set?
The set includes two 2.5 Ah 18V battery packs and a charger. The drill is also compatible with all other Flex 18V battery packs, including 5.0 Ah and 8.0 Ah options, so you can upgrade capacity as your work demands it.
What is the maximum drilling capacity for wood and steel?
The PD 2G will drill up to 52 mm diameter in wood and up to 13 mm in steel. Chuck clamping width is 1.5-13 mm, which covers the full range of standard twist and spade bits for those applications.
How does the 2-speed gearbox work?
First gear runs 0-500 rpm for high-torque, low-speed work like driving large fasteners or drilling in hard materials. Second gear runs 0-1800 rpm for faster, lower-torque drilling in wood or softer substrates. You switch between them mechanically using the selector on the body.
What does the Electronic Management System (EMS) do?
The EMS monitors load conditions on the motor and adjusts power delivery to prevent overheating and overloading. It protects both the motor and the battery pack, which is what gives the brushless motor a significantly longer service life compared to a standard brushed unit.
How much torque does it produce and how is it adjusted?
Maximum torque on hard materials is 65 Nm and on soft materials is 35 Nm. Torque is adjusted via a 24-step collar on the front of the drill, so you can dial in exactly the right setting to avoid stripping screws or overdriving fixings.
Is this drill suitable for use in tight spaces?
Yes. Flex designed the PD 2G with an extremely short head length specifically to reach into confined areas. The overall body dimensions are 164.5 x 69 x 208 mm and the 1.2 kg weight (without battery) keep fatigue low during overhead or restricted-space work.
Does it have a safety feature to prevent accidental activation?
Yes. The accelerator trigger includes a lock-off switch that prevents the drill from starting unintentionally. There is also a right/left rotation selector with a safety catch so the rotation direction cannot be changed accidentally mid-use.
What accessories are included with the drill?
The drill comes with a belt clip for hands-free carrying between tasks, an integrated bit storage holder on the body, an LED work lamp with persistence function, and an LED battery capacity display so you always know your remaining charge. The set also includes two 2.5 Ah battery packs and a charger.
