Hammer drill offers heavy duty drilling
With a maximum tightening torque of 159inlb, this hammer drill offers 3/4in drilling capacity in concrete, 1/2in capacity in steel, and 1-1/2in capacity in softwood.
It drills into concrete, stone, wood and steel, with just one switch for changing over between any of the tool's five different functions.
The tool's novel housing is made of genuine carbon fiber and aluminium.
It provides great rigidity and strength.
With the handle mounted on top of the housing, the P'7911 is easy to operate because the forces acting are almost perfectly balanced, both in the patented 'on top' handle position and when drilling above shoulder height.
In addition, the hammer lies directly under the operator's hand, ensuring a stable center of gravity.
The tool, therefore, feels lighter than comparable power tools.
Because of the multihammer's extraordinary design, its perfect balance reduces pivoting at the drill tip.
Moreover, the tool's flat base surface enables the hammer to stand up, so that it is always ready for use.
The new 705W, 6A multihammer offers 133 in.lb of torque and 2.0 joules per blow.
When using using hammer bits, it has a drilling capacity of 3/4in in concrete.
Also, it is equipped with Metabo's quick-change chuck system, electronic speed stabilization and a high-performance pneumatic impact mechanism.
