Hammer Drills

gtdail

What type of hammer drills are you guys using, I am in the market for a new corded hammer drill, it has to be a tri mode, drill, hammer, rotary hammer. I had a Bosch bulldog but after a little use it started to throw grease every where when the bit spun. Got any advice.

I've had nothing but good luck with the Bosch. I've tortured that thing and it keeps on going.

I've got a Milwaukee 5321-21 on three trucks now. Very solid roto-hammer.

I dont use them very often... But for like 2-4 holes my 18V ridgid hammer does fine. If I need to do more holes than that I rent a HILTI. If I ever buy a larger one it will be a HILTI. Those things are sweet.

One of my guys bought a new Milwalkee a few months ago, it's as effective as my 10 yr. old DeWalt. I also have a Bosch that is about 5 yrs. old. I really can't recommend one over the other, they all drill holes. The DeWalt doesn't smell too good after a long period of continuous use but it's been that way for 3 yrs. I'm waiting for the magic smoke.
