Hammer Drill
Whats the difference between "impact drill" and "hammer drill"?
Im buying my father a new corded drill for Xmas but came across a "hammer" drill and a "impact" drill.
So what is the difference???????
He has a hammer drill but now it is broken, is an impact drill the same as a hammer drill??? The drill is for basic home DIY jobbies.
Thanks for your answers
In many cases they are totally different machines as a 'hammer'machine is used generally for drilling and as has been said an SDS machine is a good piece of kit and some machines will give you separate standard chuck for normal drilling and the SDS for Masonry and concrete drilling.
An impact machine is generally used for screwdrivers and gives a much better perfomance than a standard electric screwdriver as the screw is driven in by the bit impacting on the screw not just turning it.
