Hammer drills vs. Rotary hammer drills

The biggest differences between hammer drills and rotary hammer drills are the size, chucks and drilling functions. 

A rotary hammer drill is significantly larger, heavier and more powerful than a hammer drill, and comes with a heavy duty SDS chuck. Rotary hammer drills often feature a hammer-only mode, which is often used for chiselling.

If you’re looking for a smaller tool, Makita offers an extensive range of hammer drills that are perfect for lighter applications and home DIY.
