Overview
Not a standard chuck drill, the Makita HR2641 is a corded rotary hammer that accepts SDS-PLUS bits and carries a D-handle. It is listed as a hammer drill with a plastic housing, and the side handle is the one included accessory.
The multi-mode setup and corded motor suit repeated masonry and concrete drilling where a battery would run down. The limitation is that only a side handle is listed, so bits, case and anything else are separate.
Who it's for
Concrete, brick and block work close to power is the situation, where the hammering action does the heavy lifting. Someone drilling wood or thin metal only, or working far from an outlet, should look at a cordless drill driver.
Pros and cons
- SDS-PLUS bit system
- Three working modes
- Side handle included
- Corded, steady power
- Bits not included
- Heavy for overhead work
- Cord limits reach
Performance notes
A rotary hammer adds a forward hammering blow to the spin, so the bit chips masonry while it rotates. Torque, speed and mode selection govern how fast a hole is cut, and the SDS-PLUS shank lets the bit slide so the hammer action reaches the material. Dull bits slow the work far more than motor power does.
