Common trades that benefit from Milwaukee M18 rotary hammer drills include construction, masonry, electrical, plumbing, and HVAC. In construction, these tools are indispensable for drilling anchor holes, breaking up concrete, and chiseling away material for renovation projects. Masons use them for drilling into brick, stone, and concrete, making precise openings for structural reinforcements. Electricians rely on rotary hammer drills to create pathways for conduit and wiring through tough materials, while plumbers and HVAC technicians use them to drill through walls and floors for pipe and duct installations. The versatility and power of Milwaukee M18 rotary hammer drills make them suitable for a wide range of heavy-duty applications, ensuring that professionals can tackle any job with confidence.

The primary difference between SDS-Plus and SDS-Max rotary hammer drills lies in their size and power, which determine their suitability for different applications. SDS-Plus rotary hammer drills are designed for smaller diameter holes and lighter-duty applications. They typically handle bits up to 1-1/8 inches in diameter and are ideal for tasks such as drilling anchor holes in concrete, installing electrical conduit, and performing light chiseling work. SDS-Plus drills are preferred by trades that require precision and maneuverability, such as electricians, plumbers, and general contractors working on smaller-scale projects.

In contrast, SDS-Max rotary hammer drills are built for larger diameter holes and heavy-duty applications. These tools can handle bits up to 2 inches or more in diameter, making them suitable for more demanding tasks such as drilling large holes in thick concrete, breaking up concrete slabs, and heavy chiseling. SDS-Max drills are preferred by construction professionals, demolition experts, and masons who need the extra power and capacity to handle the toughest materials and largest projects. The larger size and increased power of SDS-Max rotary hammer drills ensure that they can efficiently perform even the most challenging tasks, making them an essential tool for large-scale construction and demolition work. By choosing the appropriate Milwaukee M18 rotary hammer drill from Ohio Power Tool, professionals can ensure they have the right tool for their specific needs, enhancing their productivity and achieving superior results on every job.
