Does Dewalt still use the xenoy plastic in the clamshell on the new xr 20 v max line as on the older tools. Is there any parts on the 20v max tools that is better or less quality compared to the older tools. I mean components in the motor, gearbox and so on or is it basicaly still the same tools but with a another handle and batterypack.

What about the small drivers like 12v max. Does they also use xenoy plastic in the clamshell and these extra strong permanent magnets in the motor like in the xrp tools?

Yes to all of all of his questions or yes to just one question? 

Because that actually is a good question of what type of clamshell Dewalt currently uses.

Bingobelle, if you can give me the model numbers to I can quickly find you an answer.

I wish I could help out more, but unless you state the model numbers, I can only guess that Dewalt uses the plastic your talking about.  But again, I am not so sure.

Or if you had the part number, that also works.
