Metabo Corp. is now offering two ergonomically designed D-handle rotary hammers for use in a range of drilling and chiseling applications. The KHE-D24 and KHE-D28 extend the operators reach and reduce fatigue in both down-drilling and overhead drilling applications.
Ideal for use in through drilling and anchor setting as well as light chiseling in concrete, brick, block and stone, the KHE-D24 and KHE-D28 keep the operator’s hand and arm in alignment with the hole being drilled, maximizing drilling pressure, precision and operator control.
Both SDS Plus rotary hammers feature 12 selectable chisel positions for efficient and comfortable chipping, scaling, leveling, crack chasing or imbedding.
