Hammer Drill Metabo KH 18 LTX BL 28 Q 1000 RPM SDS Plus

The Metabo KH 18 LTX BL 28 Q 1000 RPM SDS Plus is an 18 V cordless hammer drill designed for drilling into concrete, masonry and other building materials. With a rated speed of 1000 RPM and an impact energy of 3 J, it provides the power required for medium to heavy drilling tasks while retaining the mobility of a battery-powered tool. The unit weighs 3.4 kg and accepts SDS Plus drill bits, enabling quick bit changes and reliable performance on construction sites and renovation projects.

Advantages

The brushless motor delivers efficient power and longer runtime compared with brushed designs, while the SDS Plus chuck ensures secure bit retention and fast bit replacement. Its 18 V battery platform provides cordless freedom without sacrificing drilling capacity, and the 3 J impact energy yields effective percussion for drilling into concrete up to the specified 28 mm diameter. The chip- and dust-resistant design and balanced weight distribution contribute to more comfortable handling over extended use.

Suitable for

• Drilling holes in concrete and masonry for anchors and fixings
• Installation work in renovation and construction sites
• Medium- to heavy-duty drilling tasks where cordless operation is required
• Professional tradespeople and advanced DIY projects

How to use

Select an SDS Plus drill bit appropriate for the required hole diameter and material, insert it into the chuck until it locks, and set the drill to hammer mode for concrete or masonry. Hold the tool with both hands for controlled pressure, start drilling at low speed to position the bit accurately, then apply steady pressure while allowing the hammer action and rated speed to advance the hole. For reinforced concrete, use progressive drilling and check bit wear regularly. Ensure the battery is charged and mounted securely before use.

Recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment such as safety glasses, hearing protection and dust mask when drilling. For prolonged drilling tasks, use a battery with sufficient capacity and consider spare batteries to avoid downtime. Match drill bit type and diameter to the material to maintain efficiency and extend bit life.
