Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Designed to meet the needs of the toughest industrial job site conditions, the DeWalt D25500K 1-9/16-inch SDS Max Rotary Hammer's reliable 11.0 Amp motor delivers high output while providing overload protection. An electronic variable speed feature allows the user to control the speed of drilling and chipping, and 7.3 lbs./ft. of impact energy are available for fast drilling and powerful chipping (at 1,330-to-2,660 BPM and 140-to-280 RPM). The included SDS max. tool holder is compatible with most bits, and the hammer's rubber grip helps reduce the level of vibration felt by the user when operating the tool.

Also included is a rear handle mount for less bending over when using the tool in down drilling applications. A 360-degree side handle gives users the ability to position the side handle wherever it best suits the application, and a factory clutch helps reduce the tool's reaction to embedded steel when bits lock-up while in operation. This rotary hammer also features modular construction to allow service technicians to perform repairs quickly for less down time. This rotary hammer includes a 360-degree side handle, a depth rod, and a heavy-duty kit box.

This review is from: DEWALT D25500K 1-9/16-Inch SDS Max Rotary Hammer Kit (Tools & Home Improvement)

I ordered the 1-9/16" Dewalt hammer drill to drill holes in granit. I was drilling 1-1/4" holes. I know granit is harder than concrete but I was drilling 1-1/4" holes instead of the 1-9/16" that it is rated for.

The first one I recieved- the plastic collar where the depth bar mounts was broken. That is a weak design. That collar should not be plastic. I had to return the whole drill and get a new one. The new one was intact.

I have drilled about nine 1-1/4" holes 36" deep with it now. It works well for the price but it is a little underpowered. I would rate it 1-1/8" instead of 1-9/16" it is currently rated at. If my 1-1/4" bit would get stuck it wouldn't even have the power to unstick it. I have three 1/2" chuck drills, two of them have more torque than this hammer drill.

If you have 1-1/8 holes or smaller I would definately recomend this drill. It's a nice hammer drill for the price. If your holes are larger I would recomend going up to a bigger size.
