Is the drill good for concrete, metal and wood? Is a hammer drill right? Thanks

Hi Melissa, Drilling these 3 substances is more dependent on the drills used than the drill driver. I'm sure this driver would allow you to drill any of these materials but if I wanted to drill concrete or metal frequently or continuously, I'd get a heavier drill. For very much concrete drilling a hammer drill would probably work better. This is not a hammer drill.

NO it's not a hammer drill, But it will drill in metal and wood....LOVE IT. He has his, I have MINE!! ;}

It has been a very good tool for me. I've tried it for wood mostly, but I believe the type of bit you would need would be different for concrete and metal.

A hammer drill would do much better for concrete and metal. But I have to say that this drill is fine for wood. It has a drill setting and a screw setting for whatever wood job you may have.

It's not a hammer drill. It is a variable speed with high and low range settings. It also has a clutch setting for release pressure.Definitely a small drill, but for it's size it's very handy, and battery charges quickly.

It is more driver than a drill, so I will use it for drywalls and wood working.For concrete I use an hammer drill (although from power point of view the tools are strong enough to handle break wall).

Thank you for your interest. Yes, the Bosch HD21-2 would work for drilling holes into concrete with the proper bit as long as the diameter of the hole is not larger than 7/8" which is the maximum capacity for this hammer drill. If you need to drill larger diameter holes we would recommend one of our larger rotary hammers. If you have further questions please feel free to contact our Bosch Customer Service Representatives at 1-877-BOSCH-99 (1-877-267-2499).

It is not a hammer drill. However, I believe there is a hammer-drill attachment you can buy for it.

Absolutely not! These are for metal or wood. You need to look at Masonry Drill Bits for use in concrete drilling. Those drill bits are carbide tipped and the drilling tip is configured to better withstand the abrasiveness of the concrete.

I've used it to drill in concrete and stone(in hammer drill setting), worked great for me. depth will depend on the drill bit you get. this machine has plenty of torque so just make sure you drill straight!

This drill does both hammer and drills. For the money this Hammer Drill works good. It is not the quality of a Dewalt But it is 1/4 the coat. for someone who may only use it a time or two a year it is a good buy.

Yes, This is a hammer drill that is excellent for drilling into masonry. Make sure you have a good bit and you should be fine.

definitely not. You need a hammer drill and hammer drill drill bits for concrete drilling

i would watch the videos at www.milwaukeetool.com, i believe they are actually drilling through concrete and bricks in the video. if that doesn't help they have customer service support that should answer your questions, you can also try youtube.com. i have the 18volt hammer drill and i haven't found anything yet it can't handle.

The particular set of three shown here are good for metal, wood and plastic. You can buy one that is studded with diamond dust that will cut masonry. I have one (more expensive) but haven't used it yet so don't know how long it will last.

For drilling in concrete with any regularity, get yourself a Hilti TE1 or TE2 SDS rotary hammer drill. You will be a lot happier. On the other hand, cinder blocks are pretty soft, and you could get away with chucking in a concrete bit and firing away. Hope this helps.

I bought these specifically for metal and they are excellent. For concrete, I would choose bits specific for masonry.

OK, these bits are used for thin metal, wood and plastic (PVC). See right hand corner of package. If you are drilling into concrete, use masonry bits. Otherwise, this set of drill bits are great for general purposes.

When using the appropriate drill bits,I have found this drill to be good for all materials. Works well with masonry bits,but will never out-perform a hammer drill for this application.

hammer drill is just like a normal drill but can be use to drill through masonry products with special drill bits in hammer mode. impact drill is just like an impact gun but you can use it for multiple screw bits for around the house or shop. hope this answers your questions if not let me know. will try to explain it better.

In a word.....No. The output of this drill is rotary motion.....like a regular drill except it has a high speed "pounding/hammering" component too. It is for use with carbide-tipped drills ... and it drills round holes in concrete quickly. That is ALL is is good for. Sorry.
