Description of Milwaukee 0524-20 18-Volt 1/2" Hammer/Drill 0-500/1600 RPM, T-Handle (tool only)

The first thing one notices about Milwaukee's cordless hammer drill is the reversible battery--a feature unique to Milwaukee drills and one that comes in handy in when working in tight spaces. The tool's balance feels good with the battery attached either way, although, oddly enough, we found the reverse battery configuration a little better than the normal configuration. One possible drawback to the reversible battery is that the contacts for the unused configuration are exposed, and may attract dirt if the tool is dropped in the mud or on the floor of a messy job site. The need to occasionally clean contacts, however, struck us as a small price to pay for the added versatility the reversible battery system affords. The hammer drill has two speed ranges, from 0 to 500 rpm and 0 to 1,600 rpm, and the hammer action produces 20,800 beats per minute. The five-planet gearing system delivers high-torque performance, as well as transmission durability with 20 clutch positions. You can also choose between drill-only mode and hammer-only mode. --Brian Trinen

Customer Review: Top of the Line
Summary: 5 Stars

Being a Milwaukee you know it will be the best of quality. I replaced a Dewalt cordless hammer drill with this one. I bought it in conjunction with the 4 tool combo pack. Now I have to drills. This drill is identical to the 0522 with the hammer drill extra. It has excellent balance and conforms well to your hand. The hammering action is the best I have seen in a cordless. The torque the plentiful and more than enough for any job. I am not going to try and sell you on this item. The name Milwaukee should be enough. I will say this it is the best of the best and can't be beat, period.
