Product Description
Milwaukee M18 FUEL 1-3/4 in. SDS MAX Rotary Hammer Kit with ONE-KEY
Model Number: 2918-22HD
The Milwaukee 2918-22HD M18 FUEL 1-3/4 in. SDS MAX Rotary Hammer Kit with ONE-KEY is the latest generation of Milwaukee's premium cordless SDS MAX rotary hammer platform, engineered for concrete contractors, demolition crews, electricians, plumbers, mechanical contractors, and industrial maintenance professionals who need uncompromising drilling and chipping performance without dragging cords across the jobsite. The tool delivers 11 ft-lbs of impact energy from its POWERSTATE brushless motor and REDLINK PLUS intelligence package, which Milwaukee positions as the hardest-hitting and fastest-drilling SDS MAX hammer in its class. The 11 ft-lbs impact energy represents a meaningful upgrade over Milwaukee's previous-generation 2718-22HD (8.1 ft-lbs), making this tool capable of corded-class performance in concrete drilling and chipping work. The 1-3/4 in. capacity covers the vast majority of cordless SDS MAX drilling applications including anchor installation, electrical conduit penetrations, plumbing core holes, structural fastening, and rebar-embedded concrete drilling.
What sets the 2918-22HD apart from its predecessor and from competing cordless SDS MAX hammers is the integrated feature set built around operator control, safety, and jobsite efficiency. AUTOSTOP Enhanced Kickback Control monitors the tool's rotational behavior and immediately cuts power if a bit suddenly binds in rebar, aggregate, or other hard inclusions, preventing the violent over-rotation that causes operator injury and dropped tools on conventional rotary hammers. The AVS Anti-Vibration System minimizes vibration transmission to the operator's hands, reducing fatigue during extended drilling sessions and lowering exposure to hand-arm vibration syndrome (HAVS) on long jobsite days. New for this generation, VACLINK Wireless Dust Control technology lets the operator pair the rotary hammer with a compatible Milwaukee dust extractor or vacuum, allowing the dust collection equipment to activate directly from the tool trigger without any manual switching, which is a significant productivity boost in OSHA silica-compliant cutting and drilling work. Multiple speed settings, forward and reverse drilling, and a 12-position chisel adjustment add the precision and versatility needed for finish-quality work in addition to demolition.
The kit ships ready for serious production work with two M18 REDLITHIUM FORGE HD12.0 high-output battery packs (Milwaukee 48-11-1813), the M18 and M12 Rapid Charger (Milwaukee 48-59-1808), a carrying case, a grease tube for routine service, and a side handle for two-handed control during heavy drilling. The FORGE HD12.0 batteries are Milwaukee's latest premium high-output battery technology and deliver the run time required for sustained chipping and drilling work without battery swaps. ONE-KEY compatibility lets the operator track tool location, manage inventory across crews and project sites, customize tool performance settings to specific applications, and receive lockout protection in the event of theft, which makes the 2918-22HD as much an inventory-management tool as a drilling tool for fleet-managed contractors. The tool is backed by Milwaukee's 5-year limited tool warranty and 3-year limited battery warranty.
