It drills, it screws, and it hammer drills into brick and concrete, so one tool covers most of what a normal job throws at you. Because it is brushless there are no carbon brushes to wear out, it runs cooler, and you get noticeably more work out of the same battery. The gears are metal and sit in an aluminium housing rather than plastic, which is the part you feel three years in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy people choose the DHP484Z\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIt hammer drills as well as it screws.\u003c\/strong\u003e 54Nm of hard torque and 30,000 blows per minute means brick and concrete up to 13mm, without carrying a second tool.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTwo speeds, 21 torque settings plus a drill mode.\u003c\/strong\u003e Low speed for driving big screws, high speed for clean drilling.
