Hilti TE-YX
Hilti AG
The Hilti TE-YX hammer drill for reinforced concrete is manufactured using cold forming – the only drill of its kind on the market. This approach produces no material waste, thereby considerably reducing the environmental impact. The device is 20–35% lighter than a conventional drill because less steel is required to produce an efficient groove. The drill has a considerably longer service life thanks to the high-grade carbide metal drill head and the unique construction that prevents locking upon contact with iron.
