Hammer drills types

Before the invention of the hammer drill, people face a lot of trouble drilling in the tight spaces. They had to break down the parts in smaller units in order to drill it properly. But, now the time has changed and the users can easily drill on a portable manner. But, one might wonder, what makes the best hammer drill
? The answer is being more and more complicated each year with so many brands on the market.

The market offering is huge and most of the brands are continuously reinventing their products. We have analyzed many different drills from cordless hammer drill to a corded hammer drill, to hammer drill machine to cordless hammer drill drivers. Thus, we have come up with these top picks.

This is an older, discontinued model Makita that only works as a hammer drill. It does not have the dial selector the newer models have to switch from 'drill' to 'hammer drill' to just 'hammer'. If you need, there's a parts breakdown and user manual available at:

The difference is the type of shaft on the bit so that it matches to the chuck type of the drill...They are NOT interchangeable!!!!
You need to know which type of check your drill has and order accorndingly...

Did you try oil or other type of lubrication under the bezel? Hammer drills make a lot of dust.

there should be a slider type switch on top of the drill. and there will be a picture of a hammer, and a picture of a drill. slide accross to the drill picture for drill, and hammer for the hammer drill

Youcan only use standard drill bits with the use of a chuck attachment with the SDS type bayonet. These hammer drills use an SDS type drill bit which just pushes into the fitted chuck and are released by pulling back on the lock mechanism on the chuck.

there are 2 main types of hammer drill bits, standard and SDS.

standard bits go in a regular style chuck hammer drill

SDS bits have 2 grooves and 2 elongated holes on the shaft which snap into the chuck

I'm not sure which type you have, but to answer, the 2 types are universal within their types

Depending on the type of hammer drill you have, the noise should only be heard when you are applying pressure to the material you are drilling. Some drills have 2 bump plates that cause the hammer action. This is what causes the noise. It kind of sounds like the gears are stripped but the chuck still goes just fine. You do not need to grease this, it will make this noise regardless. However you may want to take a look at the gears and make sure they are ok. You may want to add grease if the old grease is broken down or there is not enough in the gear housing. Larger hammer drills have a piston and actual hammer. Such as the Bosch Bulldog series. If it is this type and there is noise when you are in drill mode there may be more serious problems.

There are cordless varieties of just about any type of hand drill, even the specialized hammer drill. These hammer drills work in the same manner as any of the core hammer drills or regular drills. Powered by a set of rechargeable batteries.
