Demo & Rotary Hammer Reviews & Buying Guides

Our rotary hammer and demo hammer reviews include test of tools from all manufacturers. For concrete professionals, these Pro-driven tests really convey what the guys in the field think. This section of Pro Tool Reviews includes reviews of corded rotary hammers, demo hammers, corded impact wrenches, and more. With cordless drills gaining ground, some applications still require tools with more power. As power tool innovations continue, that gap narrows, but for now some jobs continue to require a cord. Some new products have great ergonomics, like Makita AVT technology. This tech comes in their newest rotary hammers and demo hammers. New vibration reduction technology and efficient dust collection have transformed the latest corded demo hammers into OSHA-compliant tools. New lightweight hammers and breakers are even showing up with new brushless motors. Performance is getting better even while the tools get lighter and lighter. The end result gets you less fatigue with just as much drilling. Whether you need a demo hammer, rotary hammer, our Pros have you covered.
