The Milwaukee 2917-20 M18 FUEL 1-9/16″ SDS Max Rotary Hammer with ONE-KEY is a high-capacity cordless rotary hammer designed for concrete drilling and light demolition. Built on the M18 battery platform, this tool delivers corded-level performance with the portability of an 18V cordless system. The POWERSTATE brushless motor produces up to 488 RPM and 3,300 BPM, delivering 5.9 ft-lbs of impact energy for fast drilling in reinforced concrete. When paired with an M18 REDLITHIUM FORGE HD12.0 battery, it can drill over (24) 7/8″ x 6″ holes per charge, making it a practical choice for anchors, rebar doweling, and through-holes on active jobsites.
Designed for maximum control, this SDS Max rotary hammer includes AUTOSTOP Enhanced Kickback Control to prevent over-rotation in bind-up situations and an AVS Anti-Vibration System to reduce user fatigue during extended use. VACLINK wireless dust control allows the tool to activate a compatible dust extractor directly from the trigger, supporting OSHA silica compliance and cleaner indoor work. With rotary hammer and hammer-only modes, 12-position chisel adjustment, and ONE-KEY tracking and management, this cordless concrete drill supports both productivity and asset control across large crews.
