Makita HM1213C 1500 Watt SDS-MAX Demolition Hammer

The Makita SDS-MAX demolition hammer is a dedicated corded breaker for chiselling and material removal in concrete, masonry, tile, and plaster. Maximum impact energy is rated at 18.6 J, which is the main figure for comparing its breaking action. Its mains-powered format suits sustained work where access to a power outlet is available. An SDS-MAX chuck with an 18 mm tool holder determines compatibility with heavy-duty chisels. This is a chiselling-only machine, with neither drilling nor hammer-drilling capability.

Chiselling vibration is rated at 7 m/s², and vibration reduction is built in to limit transmitted movement during longer sessions. Makita AVT anti-vibration technology provides the stated vibration-control system. An ergonomic auxiliary handle gives the operator an additional holding point when positioning the breaker. The chisel can be set to 12 angular positions, helping align the working end with the surface. A carrying case and chisel are supplied, so the core accessories are present for transport and initial use.
