New hammers from Dewalt

Dewalt has announced the launch of six new SDS Max and Spline hammers, including two 1 3/4-inch combination rotary hammers (D25602K and D25651K), two chipping hammers (D25831K and D25851K), and two 1 9/16-inch combination rotary hammers (D25501K and D25553K). Dewalt has developed SHOCKS Active Vibration Control to reduce vibration by up to 50 percent compared to most competitive products. It can now be found on the new 1 3/4- inch combination rotary hammers and chipping hammers. Another concern of professional contractors is reactionary torque during bind-up situations, such as when hitting rebar while drilling holes in concrete. This has been addressed with a two-stage clutch system, Complete Torque Control (CTC), which is now offered on the new 1 3/4-inch combination rotary hammers. The first clutch setting activates at 30 footpounds of torque, and the second engages at 60 foot-pounds of torque. The new hammers are equipped with 13.5-amp motors and, when combined with Dewalt’s hammer mechanism, generates up to 9.5 foot-pounds of impact energy. ? www.dewalt.com
