Overview

Meet the DEWALT 20V MAX SDS Plus Rotary Hammer Drill, model DCH172B — a cordless, compact tool designed to handle tight spaces with ease. It blends a brushless motor with a German‑engineered mechanism to optimize energy use and runtime, delivering 1.4 joules of impact energy for controlled drilling into concrete and masonry. Its lightweight, balanced form supports overhead work and precision in confined zones, making common installation tasks more manageable.

Power and performance

  • 1.4 joules of impact energy for efficient concrete drilling
  • Brushless motor and German-engineered mechanism for longer runtime and consistent performance
  • Mode selector switch to quickly switch between drill and hammer drill applications

Vibration control and safety features

  • SHOCKS active vibration control reduces fatigue at the handles compared to standard rotary hammers
  • OSHA Table 1 compliant when paired with the DWH200D shroud and DWH161D1 dust extractor

Real‑world use cases

Ideal for rod hanging, concrete forming, cable tray and strut mounting, clip and bracket mounting, and railing installation. Its compact footprint helps you reach joists, channels, and other narrow spaces without frequent repositioning. The tool‑only option keeps setup focused on your existing battery strategy and workflow.

What you get and compatibility
