Cordless rotary hammer Makita DHR182Z 18V LXT AWS, 1.7 J, SDS‑PLUS (SOLO)

Makita DHR182Z – professional 18V rotary hammer with AWS technology

The cordless rotary hammer Makita DHR182Z 18V LXT® AWS is an advanced tool designed for professionals who expect a combination of power, precision, and full mobility. This model offers three operating modes: drilling, hammer drilling, and chipping, making it ideal for installation, assembly, and construction work.

The DHR182Z features AWS – Auto‑Start Wireless System technology, which allows for a wireless connection with a compatible Makita vacuum cleaner. The vacuum starts automatically when the tool's trigger is pressed, significantly improving cleanliness and comfort during work.

Power and efficiency in a compact design

The rotary hammer generates an impact energy of 1.7 J and reaches a frequency of up to 5000 impacts/min, ensuring high drilling efficiency in concrete and mineral materials. The rotational speed of 0–1350 rpm allows for precise adjustment of parameters to the type of work.

BLDC motor – durability and efficiency

The BLDC brushless motor guarantees greater power, longer lifespan, and lower energy consumption. Maintaining a constant speed under load ensures stable operation even in hard concrete.

Work comfort – AVT and XPT

Makita has equipped this model with technologies that enhance comfort and durability:

AVT – Anti‑Vibration Technology

The AVT system and the vibration-damping gearbox housing significantly reduce hand and arm fatigue, which is especially important during prolonged work.

XPT – Extreme Protection Technology

The XPT technology increases the tool's resistance to dust and moisture, making the rotary hammer excellent for challenging construction conditions.
