New Makita Rotary Hammer Range

Makita-rotary-hammerMakita USA, launched the new HR2455 and HR2445 Pit BullT Makita rotary hammer series. These new 1" Makita rotary hammer range are not only powerful (7.0 Amp), they're remarkably lightweight (6.2 lbs.) The Pit BullT Makita rotary hammer range synchronizes the impact action between RPM (revolutions per minute) and BPM (blows per minute) to prevent overlapping impacts for 2X more efficient drilling, making them the fastest drilling rotary hammers in their class.

The Makita rotary hammer HR2455 features a 3-mode switch for rotation, hammering with rotation, and hammering only. Optimum chisel positioning is accomplished with a 360° adjustable chuck with 40 different locking positions. The Makita rotary hammer HR2445 is the 2-mode version of this model with options for rotation and hammering with rotation. Both rotary hammers feature a positive stop mode selector to prevent accidental mode disengagement. The ergonomic and well-balanced design of these Makita rotary hammer, with rubberized D-handle comfort grips, offers greater stability and control as well as reduced operator fatigue.

Other unique features of the Makita rotary hammer HR2455 and HR2445 include a built-in torque limiter to ensure stable drilling, a one-touch sliding SDS chuck for easy bit changes, a recessed lock-on button for continuous use, and a large trigger switch for usability. The Pit BullT Makita rotary hammer HR2455 and HR2445 are an ideal choice for anchor setters, sign hangers, installers, electricians, plumbers and masons.
