Portable Electric Tools: Bosch DH507 12 Pound SDS-Max Demo Hammer
The new Bosch DH507 12-pound SDS-Max Demo Hammer boasts improved ergonomics and new design features to help users maximize productivity during a variety of applications including removing wall and floor tiles, repairing joints, cutting slots in concrete or masonry and creating recesses or breaking through concrete.
Weighing 12.4 pounds and delivering 5.6 foot-pounds (EPTA)* of impact energy, the DH507 packs powerful chipping capabilities into an ergonomic tool to deliver maximum comfort for chiseling in tight spaces or in an array of different positions.
The Vario-lock positioning rotates and locks the chisel mechanism into 12 different positions to optimize working angles. The tool also features a lock-on button for extended use applications and a variable speed trigger/dial for controlled chiseling.
The DH507’s design elements make the hammer stand out from others on the market. In addition to the side handle which comes standard with the tool, the new DH507 also features an ergonomic grip area on the hammer tube which maximizes user comfort when chiseling in tight or hard to reach places. Inside the tool, a steel sleeve made of magnesium alloy is embedded into the housing allowing for better heat distribution, ultimately improving durability.
The hammer also features a re-engineered impact system with sleeve control for added user comfort, reducing contact pressure when chiseling for long periods of time and minimizing wear and tear on the user.
The Bosch DH507 12 lb SDS-max Demo Hammer will be available in May 2013 through authorized dealers nationwide for a suggested retail price of $439 USD.
