1" SDS Plus Rotary Hammer, Brushless, M18

Milwaukee 2912-20 M18 FUEL™ 1" SDS Plus Rotary Hammer – Cordless Concrete Drilling for Professional Applications

The Milwaukee 2912-20 is a cordless 1" SDS Plus rotary hammer designed for high-performance drilling in concrete, block, and masonry. Powered by the M18 FUEL™ system, it utilizes a POWERSTATE™ brushless motor and REDLINK PLUS™ intelligence to optimize power delivery and runtime while minimizing tool wear and overheating.

This rotary hammer delivers 2 ft-lbs of impact energy, with a maximum speed of 1,330 RPM and 4,800 BPM. When paired with an M18™ REDLITHIUM™ HIGH OUTPUT™ XC6.0 battery (sold separately), the tool can drill up to 125 holes (3/8" x 2") per charge. An integrated AVS (Anti-Vibration System) reduces user fatigue during continuous operation, while AUTOSTOP™ Kickback Control helps prevent over-rotation in bind-up situations.
