Compact powerhouse drilling with maximum performance.
With vibration damping, an ergonomic C-shape and weighing only 2.5 kg (incl. 4.0 Ah Li-HighPower Compact battery pack), the BHC 18 cordless hammer drill combines maximum performance with low weight – for powerful and effortless drilling even in the hardest materials. The brushless EC-TEC motor requires no maintenance and makes it so robust and powerful. With extraordinarily high impact energy, the BHC 18 drills powerfully into concrete, stone and masonry. The integrated vibration damping prevents the impact energy from being transferred to your hands. For dust-free working with the drilling dust nozzle, the Bluetooth® battery pack conveniently starts a connected CLEANTEC mobile dust extractor automatically when switching on the tool.
• Lightweight, maximum performance: Thanks to the powerful EC-TEC motor and compact C-shape
• Work effortlessly: Vibration damping absorbs the impact energy before it is transferred to your hands
• Robust: Brushless, maintenance-free EC-TEC motor for a long service life.
• Individual battery power: For maximum ease of use for shorter and less demanding applications with the 3.0 Ah Compact battery pack. Or for full power and endurance with the 4.0 Ah Li-HighPower Compact battery pack
• Even without impact: Percussive shut-off system possible e.g. for spot-drilling tiles
• Convenient extraction: The battery pack communicates via Bluetooth® with the Bluetooth® module of the CLEANTEC mobile dust extractor (can be retrofitted to the CT 26/36/48 as an accessory, directly integrated into the CT MINI I and MIDI I) and starts the mobile dust extractor automatically when the cordless tool is switched on
