Makita DHR242 18v Brushless SDS+ Rotary Hammer Drill with 2 x 6.0Ah Batteries

Product Information

The Makita DHR242Z 18V SDS Plus BL Rotary Hammer Drill Bare Unit is ideal for professional and DIY use. It is a 24mm (15/16") Cordless Combination Hammer powered by an 18V Li-ion Battery. This rotary hammer features an efficient Brushless DC motor which provides higher productivity than that of the 18V DHR202. This hammer drill is able to drill in concrete as fast as the BHR200 24V Cordless Combination Hammer. The ergonomically designed easy-to-grip handle is designed to give maximum power thrust and provide a sure and comfortable grip in any operation, overhead application, drilling with palm-up or palm-down grip as well. Durability: Use of the brushless DC motor slows the rate of heat production, which in turn reduces the temperature of the drill housing, even during sustained periods of use. Ergonomic handle provides a sure and comfortable grip in any operation including overhead applications and drilling with palm-up or palm-down grip The tool body is separated into the upper and lower housings at the foot of the handle portion where the housings are jointed with vibration absorbing cushion rubbers

The DHR242 comes with an impact rate that is 4700 blows per minute, while the maximum possible speed reaches to 950 rpm. However, with a 2 J individual impact force, the DHR242 does not achieve the impact force of heavier electric hammer drills with a 230-volt mains supply. The manufacturer specifies a maximum drilling capacity of 24 mm in concrete. Drill diameters of 13 mm are possible in steel and 27 mm in wood. Makita BL1850 B batteries with a capacity of 5 Ah are recommended. DHR242: Price UK Easy-to-grip handle ergonomically designed to give maximum power thrust and provide a sure and comfortable grip in any operationProvides a sure and comfortable grip in any operation; overhead application, drilling with palm-up or palm-down grip The innovative design of Makita’s brushless motor is engineered to be up to 50% more efficient than a comparative model. A fully charged 18v Li-Ion battery will last longer and charge faster – lasting almost twice as long as it would if used alongside a standard brush motor. Unique rubber joint construction provides protection to the battery terminals by suppressing vibration

The tool body is separated into the upper and lower housings at the foot of handle portion where the housings are jointed with vibration absorbing cushion rubbers Practicality: The electronically-controlled 18V brushless motor in the Makita DHR242 uses energy efficiently to match the torque and RPM output to the changing demands of the application.Efficiency: When Makita’s brushless motor is combined with their 18V Li-Ion battery, use-time is maximised; power is increased and charging time is reduced. Now that’s some seriously efficient energy production!

At the heart of this tool is a brushless motor that allows you to use the drill efficiently. As part of the design, the tool utilizes every bit of battery power when you need, all while reducing the need for ongoing maintenance by reducing the amount of heat generated and working more efficiently. The tool body is separated into the upper and lower housings at the foot of handle portion where the houses are jointed with vibration absorbing cushion rubbers Split tool body into the upper and lower housings, jointed with vibration absorbing cushion rubbers High productivity achieved by using efficient brushless 3-function DC motor to reduce energy loss by 30%, resulting in increased use-time between chargesThe power generated from this efficient brushless motor causes the DHR242Z to drill as fast or faster than the 24V cordless combination hammer model into concrete for higher productivity andreduces energy loss by 30%.

The Makita DHR242 is a lightweight cordless hammer drill for professional purposes that specialises in drilling, hammer drilling and chiselling. Its brushless 18-volt motor not only allows for a more compact design but also increases the service life of the machine by not producing too much heat, thus keeping the device cool and also safe from potential damages that could be caused by friction. It also has a slip clutch that prevents it from jamming under too high a load, which is godsent for stressful work where you would need the machine to operate in an even more stable manner than it normally would. Drill bits and chisels are connected to the hammer drill via an SDS-Plus tool holder.
