Instructions on how to become that same neighbor with a puncher

Removing tiles, conducting wiring, making a hole in the wall - what unites all these processes? Perforator! When I decided to purchase this tool, I did not even think about how large the range of this product is on our market. Different power, additional options - it took more than one hour to figure it out. I am sharing this knowledge with you.

Why a hammer drill, not a hammer drill

Some people use a hammer drill instead of a hammer drill, but professionals recommend not experimenting, but using each of the tools for their intended purpose. In addition, the force of a single blow with such a drill is significantly less than that of a hammer drill. As a result, much more time and effort will have to be spent on each hole.

Rotary hammer characteristics

Most often, the description of punchers in online stores and in storefronts includes the following indicators:

· Power (for household needs, take from 400 W);

· Frequency of blows;

· The number of modes (three-mode is needed if you plan, in addition to the holes, to chip coatings or dismantle partitions);

· Maximum drilling diameter;

· Type of cartridge;

· Weight (for home renovation it is better to take 4-6 kg);

· Description of additional options.

Also note that the force of the blow does not depend on your strength or the degree of pressure. If you need a tool with increased impact force, take the more powerful and heavy models.

I purchased a Metabo KHE 2860 Quick which is suitable for working with wood, stone, brick, metal and other materials. There is an additional handle. Another plus of the model is the drilling depth stop. After several months of use, I was once again convinced of the quality and reliability of German instruments. I'm 100% satisfied with the purchase.

Which hammer drill are you using? Do you think it can be replaced with an impact drill for one-off work?
