Functions

Versatility meets compactness: the multi-purpose tool with chisel function.

Light and compact, the KHC-S 18 cordless combi hammer is built for assembly work. A brushless EC-TEC motor and pneumatic hammer mechanism deliver 1.7 joules of impact energy through an SDS-Plus tool holder, making it a dependable all-rounder for small to medium drilling and chiselling in concrete, stone and masonry. Paired with the drill dust nozzle or dust extraction device (available as accessories) and a Festool mobile dust extractor, it works with far less dust – and a Bluetooth® battery pack starts the extractor automatically when you pull the trigger. Supplied with the AH-50/181 KHC auxiliary handle, depth stop, scaffold hook and a Systainer.

  • Powerful: the robust brushless EC-TEC motor and pneumatic hammer mechanism deliver 1.7 joules of impact energy for rapid progress drilling and chiselling.
  • Variety of applications: hammer drilling, chiselling, and drilling without impact.
  • Sophisticated: depth stop for exact drilling depth, LED light for visibility in dark corners, and a scaffold hook for secure hanging.
  • Dust extraction solutions: the dust extraction device or drill dust nozzle (accessories), combined with a Festool mobile dust extractor, keep dust down – and the battery pack starts the extractor automatically through its Bluetooth® module.
  • Safer: the electronic KickbackStop reduces the risk of injury if the bit suddenly jams, and the safety lock prevents unintentional starting.
  • Covered: fully covered by Festool Service when you register the machine after purchase.

Main applications

  • Hammer drilling up to Ø 12 mm in concrete, stone and masonry (Ø 18 mm maximum).
  • Interior fit-outs, assembly work, fixing substructures, ceiling suspensions and similar elements (Ø 5–12 mm) in concrete and masonry.
  • Fixing kitchen cabinets, wall shelves, acoustic insulation, plasterboard and skirting boards.
  • Light chiselling such as removing render, filler or floor tiles, and chasing slots in sandstone and masonry.
  • Drilling without percussion, as required when drilling tiles.
  • Working with dust extraction – the Bluetooth® battery pack starts a compatible extractor automatically in AUTO mode.
