Hitachi Power Tools Introduces Power Reach- An Affordable, Flexible, 3-Piece Hammer Extension System


NORCROSS, GA., October 25, 2006 - Hitachi Power Tools today announced its new Power Reach adapter system that extends the reach of a rotary hammer or hammer drill by 12" up to 43" allowing the user to drill overhead, down into water or through a large chunk of concrete with ease. The Hitachi Power Reach provides a simple three-piece system that quickly connects to adapt to different applications, accepts any SDS Max bit and eliminates any loss of power normally experienced with other extension systems.

Power Reach was designed to expand the capabilities of concrete drilling tools. With this system from Hitachi, a user can now drill into concrete overhead without the use of a ladder or scaffolding, drill down into an access hole while standing upright, drill underwater as long as the tool remains above, drill all the way through a 6' slab of concrete and generally get into otherwise inaccessible places without trouble.

The Power Reach consists of an adapter, extension rod and any SDS max bit. Unlike competitive systems, the energy generated from the tool transfers completely through the adapter to the bit so power is not compromised. Other models typically experience 10-15% power loss. With Power Reach there are fewer pieces to invest in and therefore fewer pieces to keep track of as users adapt the system to their specific application. The overall system is less expensive and any SDS max bit can be used.
