Well everyone finally broke down and bought the sds max fuel hammer drill! Just came out not to long ago and biggest one they make! Just getting tired of cords and figured I would give it a try I have ran very many sds hammer drills and may I say wow this thing is amazing used it for a solid 30 mins with the 9.0 battery and it still had half battery left when I was done! Has amazing power and really I forget it’s running off a battery because it is so nice! If anyone is on the edge about this tool go out and get it!!
Yea it’s a beast John glassey got one of the first ones on retail

Nice yeah, seen them floating around last month on Instagram, sounds like it’s the real deal.
Do you know how big a core bit it will work with?
Have the corded version of this at work, but I never knew what it was rated for with core bits
The biggest I have is 2″ idk if they make bigger but it works great not neccissarily like a core bit though a core bit is like a nice slow smooth drill the bit I have does very nice going through until the end then it will take a pretty good sized chunk of concrete,brick,etc out so definitely not as smooth but so much faster then drilling with a core drill for hours lol but as for the chunk that comes out of the back side nothing a little hydraulic cement can’t fix! Here’s a pick of my 2″ bit[External image (ep.yimg.com), not copied]

I cored a 4″ hole 6″ deep like hot knife in butter
Wow nice never had any luck with actual core drills the holes I usually do are 4″ so it definitely takes a while
there are thin wall and thick wall core bits, so that would make a difference…..
That’s great to hear it runs so nicely, anything over 2″ i use this beast:
Try to make THAT cordless!!

Just pop 4 9.0s on it. New Milwaukee RedFlex: 4x the innovation; industry’s first 60 cell SDS.

5340-21… Kinda weird since that -21 denotes a battery with a cordless tool, but that’s the number on this rotary hammer…. It’s spline drive tho, that’s what we have always used
