Metabo SDS-Max Brushless Rotary and Chiseling Hammers

Metabo Corporation, a leading German international manufacturer of professional grade cordless and corded hand-held power tools and accessories in the US, launches their new brushless rotary hammers and chiseling hammers.

“We are proud to introduce three-new brushless SDS-Max rotary combination hammers and two-new chiseling hammers. These tools are powered by brushless motors, which means you will never have a brush changed again! It also means greater dependability, longer tool life and runtime. The motors are encapsulated which prevents dust damage and significantly enhances the life of the tool. These new hammers are powerful efficient workhorses, perfect for drilling or demoing concrete,” says Antoine Derché, Director of Marketing & Product Management.

The brushless sds-max rotary hammers are available in:

• 1 9/16” KHEV 5-40 BL, 
• 1 3/4” KHEV 8-45 BL, and 
• 2 1/6” KHEV 11-52 BL - offering the largest capacity available on the market

(These are in addition to the 1 9/16” KH 5-40, recently introduced). The brushless chipping hammers are available in two models, MHEV 5 BL and MHEV 11 BL.

Metabo is a leader in safety and maximizing tool efficiency and longevity. The rotary hammers have a mechanical safety clutch, which significantly reduces the chance of kickback should the bit bind in the work or hit rebar. Plus, both the gear and motor housing is die-cast in aluminum which dissipates heat build-up, also aiding in the longevity of the tool.

Another key feature of these tools is the MVT (Metabo Vibration Technology) vibration dampening system; this includes a central handle which provides relief and helps protect the user from damaging vibrations.

"These hammers are also equipped with a new active vibration-absorbing counter-mass that goes against the hammering piston, absorbing most of the blow-back energy and making these hammers the smoothest running in the industry."

The new tools also include VTC (Vario-tacho-constamatic) full-wave electronics for maximum productivity.
VTC is Metabo’s exclusive technology that maintains RPM under load thus enhancing the productivity of the tool: the drilling speed remains optimal in all circumstances. These tools also have other electronic features, such as soft start feature, overload protection and restart protection.

To help comply with the latest OSHA regulations on Respirable Silica, Metabo also introduces a groundbreaking dust collection shroud, the ESA-Max, it fits all the new Metabo hammers and adapts to all drilling and chipping applications. When these tools are paired with Metabo’s industry-leading ASR 35 ACP HEPA automatic wet/dry vacuum with continuous suction, and a dust extraction accessory, like the new ESA Max (#623271000) for drilling and chiseling, it is easy to be OSHA compliant.
