Our take on the RIDGID 18V SubCompact Lithium-Ion Brushless Cordless 1/2 in. Hammer Drill/Driver

The RIDGID R8711K is an 18V brushless hammer drill/driver built for tight spaces and overhead work. It delivers 425 in./lbs. of torque and two speed ranges (0-450 and 0-1,700 RPM), with a hammer mode for light concrete and masonry drilling. RIDGID says it is 30% lighter and 30% more compact than its R86116 brushless hammer drill. That makes it a compact alternative to full-size 18V hammer drills, though it trades away torque for the smaller body. The kit ships with two 2.0 Ah batteries, a charger and a tool bag.

About the RIDGID 18V SubCompact Lithium-Ion Brushless Cordless 1/2 in. Hammer Drill/Driver

This is an 18V SubCompact brushless 1/2 in. hammer drill/driver kit, model R8711K. The compact body is made for tight spaces. It is 30% lighter and 30% more compact than the RIDGID R86116 Brushless 1/2 in. Hammer Drill/Driver, and its ergonomics are optimized.

The brushless motor gives more runtime, more power and longer motor life. The drill delivers 425 in./lbs. of torque and runs at 0-450/0-1,700 RPM. A 1/2 in. single-sleeve ratcheting chuck holds bits tight and secure.

A hammer mode setting on the clutch is for drilling concrete. The clutch ring has 24 positions for precise driving. An LED light illuminates the workspace. The belt hook and bit holder can be reversed to either side. The kit's batteries and charger work with all RIDGID 18V batteries, tools and chargers.

Questions and answers

Is the RIDGID R8711K powerful enough for concrete?
It has a hammer mode and 425 in./lbs. of torque, which suits light masonry and small holes. For repeated or large-diameter concrete drilling, a full-size hammer drill or rotary hammer is the better tool.
How does it compare with the RIDGID R86116?
RIDGID says the R8711K is 30% lighter and 30% more compact than the R86116. The trade-off is lower torque, so the R86116 is stronger for heavy drilling while the R8711K is easier in tight spaces and overhead.
What comes in the kit?
The kit includes the drill, two 18V 2.0 Ah batteries, an 18V charger, a driving bit, a belt clip, two screws, a tool bag and an operator's manual.
Does it use RIDGID 18V batteries?
Yes. It runs on RIDGID 18V lithium-ion batteries and comes with two 2.0 Ah packs and a charger.
What size bits does the chuck take?
The 1/2 in. single-sleeve ratcheting chuck takes bits with a 1/2 in. shank and smaller, and holds them tight.
Is it good for driving screws?
Yes. The 24-position clutch and the low 0-450 RPM range give control for driving, and the compact body helps in tight spots.
