Compact professional hammer drilling power from Festool

The BHC 18-Basic combines cordless freedom with the kind of impact strength needed for demanding fastening and drilling work in hard materials. It is designed for tradespeople who need a machine that can drill powerfully into concrete and masonry, but can also switch off the hammer action for controlled drilling or screwdriving in more delicate materials such as tiles, wood and brittle surfaces. With SDS-Plus tool changes, a safety clutch, variable speed control and compatibility with Festool Bluetooth extraction solutions, it is a versatile and highly practical addition to a mobile trade setup.
