Redefining Cordless Performance

The Einhell Herocco 18/20 represents a significant leap in cordless tool technology, delivering performance that challenges traditional corded models. Designed for professionals and serious DIYers who refuse to be tethered to power outlets, this rotary hammer combines brute strength with battery-powered convenience. Whether you're drilling into concrete, chiseling tiles, or performing light demolition work, the Einhell Herocco 18/20 stands ready to tackle the job with impressive power and reliability.

Cordless Freedom, Professional Power

The Einhell Herocco 18/20 shatters the myth that cordless tools lack sufficient power for demanding masonry work. With a pneumatic impact mechanism delivering up to 5,500 impacts per minute and an impact energy of 2.2 joules, this tool makes quick work of concrete, granite, and other tough materials . The 18-volt Power X-Change battery system provides ample energy for sustained operation, with manufacturers recommending a 4.0Ah battery or higher for optimal performance . This cordless design means no more searching for power outlets on the job site, no tangled cords, and complete freedom to work anywhere – from tight corners to high ceilings. The drilling capacity of 20mm in concrete demonstrates that this is no ordinary cordless drill, but a serious tool designed for professional applications

Brushless Motor Excellence

At the heart of the Einhell Herocco 18/20's impressive performance lies the Einhell PurePOWER brushless motor technology. Unlike traditional brushed motors that suffer from wear and tear, the brushless design offers increased efficiency, longer runtime, and an extended service life . This advanced motor isn't just more durable – it delivers more power and longer running time than conventional carbon brush motors . After online registration, Einhell backs this motor with an impressive 10-year warranty, a testament to their confidence in its reliability . The brushless technology also means maintenance-free operation, as there are no carbon brushes to replace, saving time and money over the tool's lifespan while ensuring consistent power delivery even under heavy loads.

Four Functions, Limitless Applications

Versatility defines the Einhell Herocco 18/20 experience, with four distinct operating modes that make it a true jobsite all-rounder . The intelligent 4-mode function switch allows seamless transition between:

  • Drilling mode for standard drilling applications in wood and metal

  • Hammer drilling mode for efficient penetration into concrete and masonry

  • Chiseling with rotation lock for focused chiseling tasks like tile removal

  • Chiseling without rotation lock for broader surface work

This versatility means one tool can replace multiple specialized tools on your job site. The variable speed electronics provide fine adjustment for delicate operations, giving you complete control whether you're installing anchors in concrete or carefully removing bathroom tiles . From construction and contracting to plumbing, HVAC, and renovation work, the Herocco 18/20 adapts to your specific needs without compromise.

SDS-Plus Chuck System & Included Accessories

The universal SDS-plus chuck with semi-automatic function makes bit changes quick, tool-free, and secure . This professional-grade chuck system ensures a solid hold under load while allowing rapid bit swaps that significantly reduce downtime between tasks. Beyond the rotary hammer functionality, Einhell includes a magnetic bit adapter that expands the tool's capability to include screwdriving tasks and a standard 13mm keyless drill chuck SDS adapter, adding remarkable versatility to your toolkit . The tool comes complete with an adjustable depth stop made of solid metal for precise drilling depth control, and everything is neatly organized in a durable E-Box carry case for protected transport and storage . This thoughtful inclusion of accessories means you have everything needed to start working immediately (minus the battery).

Ergonomic Design for Professional Use

Weighing just 2.12kg (4.9 lbs), the Einhell Herocco 18/20 is designed for comfortable, tireless operation even during extended use . The ergonomically designed grip area with soft surfaces reduces fatigue, while the anti-vibration handle minimizes transmitted vibration to the user, enhancing control and comfort . An integrated LED work light illuminates dark work areas, ensuring precision and safety in low-light conditions. The additional side handle provides stability and control during chiseling operations or when working at awkward angles. These thoughtful design elements make the Einhell Herocco 18/20 not just powerful, but a pleasure to use throughout the workday, reducing operator fatigue and improving overall productivity.
