    Product Description

    Brushless SDS Rotary Hammer Drill for Concrete & Masonry

    For powerful drilling in tough materials, the Makita DHR242 LXT Brushless Rotary Hammer SDS Drill delivers dependable cordless performance for demanding work. Designed for DIY projects, workshop tasks, and professional jobsites, this Makita SDS rotary hammer drill combines strong impact power with efficient brushless technology.

    Powered by Makita’s 18V LXT battery platform, this cordless power tool features a brushless motor that improves efficiency while reducing wear on internal components. This helps the drill run cooler, extend its service life, and deliver consistent performance during heavy-duty drilling tasks.

    With 2.0 joules of impact energy and up to 4,700 impacts per minute, the drill provides the strength needed to drill into concrete and masonry effectively. It offers an optimum drilling range of 4mm–16mm in concrete, with a maximum capacity of 24mm, making it suitable for a wide range of construction and installation work.

    The variable speed control allows you to match drilling speed to the material, while constant speed control helps maintain consistent performance when working under load. The SDS-PLUS chuck system allows quick and secure bit changes without additional tools, helping you move efficiently between drilling tasks.

    Built with durability and safety in mind, the drill includes a torque limiter that helps reduce sudden kickback if the bit jams during operation. The electronic brake stops the tool quickly once the trigger is released, improving control and safety between tasks. A reverse switch also allows you to remove bits or fixings easily when required.

    Makita’s battery protection circuit helps protect the tool and battery by preventing overloading, overheating, and over-discharging, helping extend the life of your equipment. For cleaner working conditions, the drill can also connect to a compatible dust extraction system, helping reduce airborne dust during masonry drilling.

    Supplied with a depth gauge for accurate drilling depth, this Makita cordless SDS rotary hammer drill is a dependable choice for tackling concrete drilling, masonry work, and installation jobs in the garage, workshop, or on site.

    Please Note: This listing is for the body only and is not shipped with the battery or charger.
