Product Benefits
The UniversalHammer 18V makes drilling and chiseling simple and convenient. Its powerful pneumatic hammer mechanism ensures efficient performance in concrete, while the compact design allows comfortable operation even in confined spaces. The tool is ideal for removing wall tiles, chiseling cable channels, and drilling various mounting holes.
With a 2.5 Ah battery, the tool is well suited for drilling 4–8 mm holes in concrete. When used with a larger battery of at least 4.0 Ah, it can drill holes up to 16 mm in diameter and handle more demanding chiseling tasks. The hammer function can be switched off when precise drilling in tiles or other sensitive materials is required.
Applications
- Drilling in concrete up to 16 mm in diameter
- Removing wall tiles
