Milwaukee M18 Fuel High Performance 4-Mode 16mm SDS-Plus Hammer Bare Unit

Designed for professionals who demand speed, control, and reliability on site, the Milwaukee M18 Fuel High Performance 4 Mode 16mm SDS Plus Hammer Bare Unit delivers powerful drilling and chiselling performance in a compact cordless format. Ideal for electricians, plumbers, mechanical installers, and general contractors, this tool is built to handle daily concrete and masonry work without unnecessary weight or bulk.

At its core is a high efficiency hammer mechanism producing 1.7 joules of impact energy, providing fast and consistent drilling performance up to 16mm in concrete. The tool is optimised for common fixing sizes between 5mm and 12mm, making it perfectly suited to repetitive anchor drilling, bracket fixing, and overhead installations where speed and control matter most. With a high percussion rate and responsive motor control, holes are completed quickly with minimal effort.

Safety and comfort are central to the design. Milwaukee’s AUTOSTOP technology instantly shuts down the tool in bind up situations, reducing sudden kickback and helping protect the user, particularly when drilling in awkward positions or from ladders and platforms. The integrated anti vibration system works alongside the anti vibration side handle to reduce fatigue and vibration exposure, allowing longer working periods with greater comfort and control.

Versatility is delivered through four operating modes. Rotary hammer mode handles concrete and masonry drilling, hammer only mode allows light chiselling work, rotation only mode supports drilling into wood or metal with suitable accessories, and the variolock function enables precise chisel angle adjustment. Compatibility with the M18 FDDEC dust extraction system makes this SDS Plus hammer a strong choice for indoor work and sites with strict dust management requirements.

Supplied as a bare unit, this tool is ideal for users already invested in the Milwaukee M18 platform. It works seamlessly with all Milwaukee M18 batteries, allowing professionals to expand their tool kit without paying for additional batteries or chargers. The package includes a side handle, depth gauge, and grease, ensuring the tool is ready for immediate site use.

Compact, powerful, and engineered for professional demands, the Milwaukee M18 Fuel High Performance 4 Mode 16mm SDS Plus Hammer Bare Unit is a dependable solution for everyday drilling and light chiselling tasks, delivering performance, safety, and efficiency in one balanced cordless tool.
