The Porter-Cable PC650HD 1/2-Inch Hammerdrill provides the power and reliability you'll need to get the job done quickly and efficiently. With a 6.5 Amp motor for high-output power, and variable speed settings, the PC650HD gives you the performance you need drill into any virtually surface, whether it is concrete or wood.


Power Settings Optimized for Different Surfaces


With two speed options of either 0 to 1,000 or 0 to 3,000 revolutions-per-minute (RPMs), you can optimize your performance for high-torque/low-speed applications, such as drilling large holes into wood or drilling into masonry and concrete. And the 6.5 Amp motor produces up to 51,000 beats-per-minute (BPM), while allows the Hammerdrill to be used on thin gauge metal and other hard surfaces. The Porter-Cable Hammerdrill can also be used to drill in reverse while maintaining full power.


Smart Design Ensures Durability and User Safety


Porter-Cable designed the PC650HD Hammerdrill with the professional user in mind. Employing cast metal in both the gear case and side handle increases the durability of the tool and gives you more control and safety. A soft pistol-grip design offers comfortable and safe handling position, which results in improved maneuverability and reduced fatigue.
