An electric tool is provided. The electric tool prevents anomalies in motor rotation due to dust and moisture sucked in together with a cooling wind, and is configured such that rotational position detection operations and switch operations are not affected. In the electric tool which drives a brushless DC motor using a controller, a magnetic body for rotational position detection is provided on a rotation shaft which can rotate integrally with a rotor, Hall ICs are provided to detect the rotational position of the magnetic body and output a position signal to the controller, and the magnetic body and the Hall ICs mounted on a substrate are arranged in a region isolated from the wind path of the cooling wind generated by rotation of a cooling fan. The Hall ICs are accommodated in a housing filled with resin.
