The rotary hammer doesn’t numb your hand as you’d expect it to, firing 4800 beats per minute at 1.8 ft-lbs of force. Milwaukee touts its AVS Anti-Vibration System, which is largely a mechanical separation of the handle from the active anvil mechanism. The kit includes the 2605-20 7/8″ Rotary Hammer, two RedLithium M18 XC batteries, charger, side handle, depth gauge rod, and a nice blow mold case. What it does have, however, is a unique (for the M18 line) D-handle and really rugged build quality where the anvil mechanism and motor structure are situated. The tool is, as you’d expect, no different in appearance from any other red & black Milwaukee Tool. It’s also balanced “properly”, which is to say that it makes sense – particularly when you are using the front handle to stabilize it. The 2605-20 rotary hammer weighs just under 8 pounds with a RedLithium XC battery installed. When we say the M18 Cordless Rotary Hammer is nimble, we mean it – but that doesn’t mean your 4-year old can one-hand a hole while holding the tool up over his head. Milwaukee Cordless SDS Rotary Hammer Features Build Quality Before we get too far ahead, let’s talk a bit about the tool itself. That pretty much ruled out the conventional hammer drill – which would have done a number on our arm with the number and size of holes we were drilling. We needed to secure three brand-new bike racks into a concrete slab, do it securely, and accomplish the task in a short amount of time. Working with Parker Street Ministries, a local non-profit organization here in town, we help them on a fairly big drilling job. The 2605-22 Cordless SDS-Plus Rotary Hammer Drill Kit is light enough to be used overhead but strong enough to plow through high-density concrete with a 7/8″ bit.īack to our aforementioned “collision”. It’s not for chopping up large swathes of concrete, but it’s also a huge step above something you’d use for routine fastening into block walls. It’s a cordless tool that really attempts to be a corded tool replacement. The M18 Rotary Hammer represents one of those cross-over tools.
