« back to Makita 18V LXT Impact Guns & Drills

Makita has created a new class in cordless with 18V LXT new compact tools. The Brushless DHR171 17mm SDS Plus Rotary Hammer is ideal for working in tight spaces and for overhead conditions.

The DHR171 has an efficient Makita Brushless Motor for up to 50% longer run time, increased power and speed, and longer tool life. It has 2-mode operation for “rotation only” or “hammering with rotation”, with 0-680 RPM, 0-4,800 IPM and 1.2 Joules of impact energy for fast and efficient drilling. The compact size and lower weight mean reduced fatigue for operators, especially for overhead applications.

Additional features include a vibration-absorbing handle that moves independently of the motor and hammer mechanism for increased operator comfort, as well as a variable speed trigger, built-in L.E.D. lights, and one-touch sliding chuck for easy bit changes.

Supplied body only. Batteries and chargers are sold separately. 

FEATURES

• Brushless motor delivers 0-680 RPM, 0-4,800 IPM and 1.2 Joules of impact energy for faster drilling
• Compact and Ergonomic design at only 273mm overall length
• Weighs only 2.8 Kg with BL1840 or higher battery (battery not included) for reduced operator fatigue
