## Summary

An 18V SDS-plus rotary hammer with 2.6 J impact energy, a brushless EC-TEC motor, chisel mode and KickbackStop. A tool-free chuck swap turns it into a drill for wood and steel.

## Why this one

- **2.6 J impact energy**: Up to 26 mm in concrete, ideal range up to 18 mm.
- **KickbackStop**: Electronic shut-off if the drill bit jams.
- **Two quick-change chucks**: SDS-plus and 13 mm keyless chuck swap without tools.
- **Extractor auto-start**: Bluetooth battery switches on a CLEANTEC extractor with the tool.

## The story

### For fixing and installation work

The KHC 18 is sized for electricians, plumbers and interior fitters who drill anchor holes, cable routes and pipe penetrations in concrete and masonry. It is at its best between 6 and 18 mm and reaches 26 mm in concrete. Rotation stop allows light chiselling, and switching off the hammer turns it into a drill.

### Safer and easier on the hands

The electronic KickbackStop cuts the motor if a bit snags on rebar, and a mechanical slip clutch backs it up. A vibration damper and ergonomic handle keep hand-arm vibration down. There is an LED light, a depth stop on the auxiliary handle, a scaffold hook and a safety lock against accidental starting.

### Two chucks, one system

Besides the SDS-plus chuck, a 13 mm keyless chuck clips on without tools for round, hex and bit shanks. A dust extraction device is available as an accessory; with a Bluetooth battery the CLEANTEC extractor starts with the tool. The Basic kit ships bare in a Systainer³ SYS3 L 187.
