850 RPM - Hammer Drills - The Home Depot

Question 1

What is the RPM for products available within Hammer Drills?

Accepted Answer

RPM refers to revolutions per minute which means how fast the drill rotates. The correct RPM depends on the nature of the job. Most products allow for RPM to be adjusted depending on the project and material that is being drilled. Within Hammer Drills, the maximum RPM of the products ranges from 0 - 999 to 3000 - 3999.

Question 2

What is the difference between a hammer drill and a rotary hammer?

Accepted Answer

A hammer drill operates like a traditional drill with a linear percussive action, making it very effective at drilling for masonry projects. On the other hand, rotary hammers create the same hammering motion with a position driven by a crankshaft, producing an even more hammering action. The rotary hammer is heavier and is recommended for professional construction work involving harder concrete. For a light-duty job for soft concrete or brick, a hammer drill is suggested.
