Our take on the Bosch 18V SDS-plus 1 1/4 in. Rotary Hammer

This is a cordless SDS-plus rotary hammer built on Bosch's 18V battery platform, with a brushless motor and a 1 1/4-inch keyless chuck. It runs three modes: rotary hammer for drilling masonry, drill-only for wood and metal, and hammer-only for light chiseling. At about 5.8 lb with a 4.0 Ah battery it sits in the middle of the cordless SDS-plus class, lighter than corded hammers but behind the larger 18V flagships on single-blow energy. It suits remodelers, electricians and homeowners who drill anchors and small holes in concrete without hunting for an outlet.

Pros
  • Brushless motor for longer runtime and less maintenance
  • SDS-plus chuck for quick, tool-free bit changes
  • Three modes: hammer drill, drill only, hammer only
  • Two 4.0 Ah batteries included for continuous work
  • Compact and light enough for overhead drilling
Cons
  • 500 rpm top speed is slow for large wood or metal bits
  • Modest impact energy for its class, so big holes are slow
  • No auto-lock, so the trigger must be held
  • Bare-tool weight climbs noticeably with the battery fitted

What reviewers say

Owners treat it as a dependable light-duty rotary hammer for anchors and small masonry holes, and praise the brushless motor and SDS-plus chuck. Criticism centers on speed and power: it is slower than corded hammers and larger 18V rivals on bigger bits.

What people mention
  • Drilling speedCriticisedOwners say it bogs down in hard concrete with larger bits and is slower than corded hammers.
  • Chuck changesPraisedThe SDS-plus system lets bits go in and out without a key, which users like on the job.
  • Battery runtimePraisedTwo 4.0 Ah packs keep it running through a day of anchor drilling.
  • WeightMixedLight enough for overhead work, but the battery adds noticeable heft.
  • Build qualityPraisedThe brushless motor and housing hold up to regular jobsite use.

Questions and answers

Is this a hammer drill or a true rotary hammer?
It is a true SDS-plus rotary hammer with a hammer-only mode, not just a drill with a hammer clutch. That makes it better for concrete and masonry.
Can it drill wood and metal?
Yes, in drill-only mode with the chuck. The 500 rpm top speed is fine for small bits but slow for large holes.
Does it come with batteries and a charger?
It ships with two 4.0 Ah 18V batteries. Check the kit contents for the charger, since bundles vary.
How does it compare with a corded SDS-plus hammer?
It trades some impact energy for cordless freedom. Corded hammers drill faster in hard concrete; this one wins where there is no outlet.
What size bits can it take?
It uses SDS-plus shank bits, the common size for light rotary hammers. The 1 1/4-inch chuck also accepts round-shank bits in drill mode.
Is it good for chipping tile or light demolition?
It has a hammer-only mode for light chiseling, but it is not a demolition hammer. For sustained chipping, a larger tool is better.
