With a powerful motor and innovative design concept for reliability and long life, these quiet, smooth-running tools provide top performance and maximum working comfort.

Thanks to an optimized, regulated motor, improved gearing and a unique cooling system, the Hilti TE 16 and TE 16-C provide an increase of up to 50 percent in drilling speed and chiseling and up to 75 percent longer tool life over their predecessor. The drills also feature a compact, ergonomic design for good tool balance; recessed, conveniently placed controls to minimize damage, and less vibration for more working comfort.

The TE 16 is a powerful, yet compact rotary hammer for repetitive anchor hole drilling in the medium diameter range. Ideal for mechanical, electrical and seating contractors, the TE 16 can be used for drilling anchor and through holes in concrete and masonry, drilling wood and metal, and installing and removing masonry screw anchors.
