Cordless Hammer Drill Recoomend

[Robertnjami]

I work in trades and use a drill / hammergill in the year round

I now have a 18-volt cordless battery with 2 batteries.

It is about 6 months old that leaves much more to be desired

I use it with 18 "wood or magnet bits, drywall, foam, top plate, brick mortar, using drill drill from 1/4" to 1/2 "hole.

I used it to pilot the hole drill and 1/2 "x 2 - 3" log bolt drive.

I installed it in a plastic anchor and screw it on the brick to use 3/16 "hole drill in a mortar.

The chalk tool is less and I think it's 3/8 "chalk.

I'm looking for a drill and bit that can be more powerful and that I stand to use to give it

Do you have any recommendations or ideas for drills and bits?

Do you use a drill for the same type of use as me?

Well - - for my really heavy duty stuff here on my property - not commercial - I like Milwaukee power tools. Those that I have - like my half inch Hole Hog drill - have withstood years of use and abuse with little or no ill effects. And about 95% of the Hole Hog use has been with it connected to my portable generator.

Does anybody even make hammer drills anymore? Old, OLD technology. You want an SDS or SDS Max. What brand 18 volt batteries do you have? Most of the name brands will have a decent cordless SDS drill. I personally carry around a corded Makita SDS with half a dozen different sized bits and a flat chipper for removing tile and brick. Super fast and easy. For bigger jobs I have a corded Makita 1 9/16 SDS Max that I use for jack hammering most of the time, but it's also great for driving in ground rods, and drilling bigger holes in concrete.

I have recently acquired a dewalt dcd996 and it is a beast of a hammer drill as far as non-rotary hammerdrills go.

Dewalt is my standard tool OEM and have used a similar hammer drill quite a bit in rock, brick and concrete at the home site. However, for really heavy duty stuff a SDS +/max would be the go-to tool.

I only use the Ridged Cordless stuff. Only because it has the lifetime warranty that INCLUDES batteries! I never had much luck with cordless stuff and felt ripped off by the price of batteries compared to the packaged tool pricing.

So far, I have had no issues after five or more years.

A friend has the same, but the Ridged stuff wasn't quite HD enough for him and he went with the super expensive but powerful SNAP ON cordless tools.

G'day Mate and welcome to TBN from Downunder.

A Mate of mine who has/runs a large cattle/pig property uses Makita cordless. Very hardy and powerful.

Enjoy the site.

I have a cordless hammer drill that’s more of a it’s all I have tool so it’ll have to work. The best money I’ve spent is a SDS max hammer drill. It didn’t come cheap, but it’s almost fun drilling holes with it. And it’s a pretty sweet mini jackhammer for taking up tile and such.
