SEGMENT REVIEW
The drilling & fastening tools segment accounts for the largest share in 2021. It is expected to add an incremental growth of USD 0.69 billion to the segment by 2027. The most common cordless power tools are drilling and fastening, such as drills, impact wrenches, impact drivers, screwdrivers, and nut runners. Most tools are not applied individually, and every industry uses the optimum combination of these tools. For instance, the application of drillers relies on the nature and type of work. Impact drills and wrenches deliver almost the same result. However, the difference lies in the effectiveness and overall productivity of the tools.
The brushed motors segment is expected to reach USD 4.28 billion by 2027. In addition, the segment is anticipated to witness shipments of 61.55 million units in 2027, growing at a CAGR of 6.22% during the forecast period. The construction and design of brushed motors are very simple. Also, manufacturing is straightforward due to a small number of internal components. Hence, the overall cost of brushed DC motors is low. Brushed motors are much more reliable and less expensive than brushless motors. However, based on power, brushed motors are less potent than brushless motors.
The 12V Li-ion battery holds the largest share in the US cordless power tools market in 2021 and is expected to maintain dominance during the forecast period. The segment is anticipated to add an incremental revenue of USD 0.81 billion by 2021. Several players are producing li-ion batteries, such as Robert Bosch. BAT414 is a 12 V Max lithium-ion 2.0 Ah battery offered by Robert Bosch. BAT414 uses advanced technology for optimum battery life, power, and runtime. It is a more compact and lightweight power tool battery and is an ideal complement to the Bosch 12 V line compact tools.
The industrial end-user segment was the most significant revenue contributor to the US cordless power tools market in 2021, and this trend is likely to continue throughout the forecast period. The segment is anticipated to witness shipments of 85.24 million units in 2027, growing at a CAGR of 6.50%. Cordless power tools are widely used in automotive, aerospace, electronics, energy, construction, shipbuilding, and other industries. The construction sector is the highest revenue generator due to the region's rising construction and renovation activities, followed by the automotive industry, which assembles high-precision parts. The industrial segment is expected to add an incremental revenue of USD 2.41 during the forecast period.
The US Census Bureau and the US Department of Housing and Urban Development jointly announced a new residential construction where privately-owned housing units authorized by building permits were at a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 1,681,000. The construction of new privately-owned houses commenced in May 2021, and the total completion of privately owned homes was at a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 1,572,000 and 1,368,000, respectively. Texas, Louisiana, Virginia, Georgia, North Carolina, Tennessee, Maryland, and Florida are the top states with the highest number of projects in the US construction project pipeline. Thus, construction projects' effectiveness depends on portable power tools such as drillers, circular saws, impact wrenches, angle grinders, and routers. Therefore, this will demand US cordless power tools in this region.
