CAT DX27 Rotary Hammer 1500W SDS-Plus | 5.0J Impact | 4-Mode Drill Hammer Chisel | 32mm Masonry 40mm Wood | Anti-Vibration | Magnesium Gearbox | Side Handle Included

Heavy-Duty Impact Power, Professional Engineering, Total Versatility — The CAT DX27 1500W SDS-Plus Rotary Hammer When the job demands a rotary hammer that can drive through reinforced concrete without hesitation, chisel through dense masonry with authority, and deliver sustained professional-grade performance throughout a full working day, the CAT DX27 1500W SDS-Plus Rotary Hammer is the tool engineered for the task. With a 1500-watt motor, 5.0 Joules of impact energy, a magnesium alloy gearbox, and four operating modes, the DX27 represents the pinnacle of SDS-Plus rotary hammer performance for professionals who demand the best. Power in a Class of Its Own The DX27 is built around a 1500-watt motor producing 5.0 Joules of impact energy — a significant step up in impact force over 3J and 3.2J class hammers that translates directly into dramatically faster drilling speeds through the most resistant materials. Dense reinforced concrete, hard engineering brick, granite and natural stone, thick blockwork — materials that challenge lighter hammers — are handled by the DX27 with authority and speed. An impact rate of 3,700 beats per minute combined with a variable speed range of 0 to 920 RPM provides the optimal combination of percussive frequency and rotary speed for maximum drilling efficiency across every masonry material and bit diameter. Magnesium Alloy Gearbox — Professional Construction Throughout The magnesium alloy gearbox is the clearest statement of the DX27's professional engineering credentials. Magnesium alloy is the material of choice for the highest-grade power tool gearboxes for compelling reasons — it is significantly lighter than aluminium while being equally strong, and its superior thermal conductivity dissipates the heat generated during sustained heavy drilling and chiselling far more effectively than alternative materials. The result is a gearbox that stays cooler under load, protects internal components from heat damage during continuous operation, and maintains its structural integrity under the physical punishment of daily professional use — year after year, project after project. Four Modes That Cover Every Application The 4-in-1 function selector transforms the DX27 from a powerful hammer drill into a genuinely multi-functional professional tool. Drill mode delivers clean, precise rotary drilling in wood and metal without impact — protecting workpiece surfaces and producing clean hole edges where finish quality is important. Hammer drill mode engages the full force of the 5.0J impact mechanism alongside rotation for maximum masonry penetration speed. Chisel mode disengages rotation entirely, channelling all motor output into pure impact action for tile removal, mortar raking, concrete surface preparation, and light demolition. Bit rotation mode allows the chisel to be indexed to the exact working angle needed before impact is engaged — a detail that matters enormously when working in tight spaces where chisel orientation determines the quality and accuracy of the result. SDS-Plus: The Professional Standard for a Reason The SDS-Plus chuck has become the universal standard for professional rotary hammer accessories because it works — providing a secure, positive engagement that transfers impact energy with maximum efficiency, allows tool-free bit changes in seconds, and delivers compatibility with the broadest possible range of SDS masonry bits, wood augers, core drills, flat chisels, pointed chisels, and specialist attachments from every major manufacturer. On a tool of the DX27's power class, the SDS-Plus connection ensures that every joule of impact energy generated by the 1500-watt motor is delivered directly and efficiently into the working material. Anti-Vibration Engineering for All-Day Comfort At 5.0 Joules of impact energy, vibration management is not optional — it is essential. The rubberised anti-vibration auxiliary handle is engineered specifically to absorb and damp the significant vibration generated during heavy drilling and chiselling, protecting the operator's hands and arms from the cumulative effects of prolonged high-impact tool use. Combined with the lock-on switch that eliminates the need for continuous trigger pressure, the DX27 is genuinely manageable during the extended drilling sessions that professional construction work demands. Drilling Capacity for the Most Demanding Applications Maximum capacities of 32mm in masonry, 40mm in wood, and 13mm in metal cover the complete range of anchor drilling, large-diameter hole production, and structural fixing tasks found on the most demanding professional projects — from large-diameter anchor holes in concrete foundations to 40mm clearance holes in structural timber and cable routes through dense blockwork walls. Built for the Jobsite, Ready Immediately The ball-joint cable connection prevents the cable kinking and stress fracturing at the connection point that are a common cause of corded tool failure on active sites.
