Product Description
Makita DHR171Z 18V LXT Brushless 17mm SDS+ Rotary Hammer (Body Only)
The Makita DHR171Z 18V LXT Brushless 17mm SDS+ Rotary Hammer (Body Only) is a compact cordless hammer drill designed for fast, controlled drilling in concrete, masonry, steel and wood within the cordless SDS+ hammer drills category. Powered by Makita's 18V LXT Li-ion battery platform, its brushless motor and constant speed control deliver up to 680 rpm, 4,800 ipm and 1.2 J of impact energy, providing efficient performance for fixings, anchors and light to medium-duty chiselling tasks. The lightweight, well-balanced body, vibration absorbing housing and ergonomic side handle help reduce user fatigue, especially when working overhead or in tight spaces. A variable speed trigger, forward/reverse selection and two-mode operation (rotation only or hammering with rotation) give precise control across a wide range of professional applications, while the built-in LED job light improves visibility in poorly lit areas. The Makita DHR171Z 18V LXT Brushless 17mm SDS+ Rotary Hammer is supplied as a body only unit with side handle and depth stop, ready to use with your existing Makita 18V LXT batteries and chargers.
