Best impact drill in Sri Lanka for walls, wood and steel

An impact drill (hammer drill) is the everyday tool for fixing to brick and block walls, and it also drills timber and steel. It is usually the first power tool a Sri Lankan home or small business buys.

What to look for

• 13mm chuck is standard and fits most bits.
• 500–750W covers home and light trade work.
• Variable speed and reverse help start holes and remove stuck bits.
• A depth gauge and side handle are worth having.
• Keyless chucks are faster; keyed chucks grip harder.

Where it is used in Sri Lanka

Fixing curtain rails, fans, shelves and TV brackets; drilling for wall plugs; light steel and timber work.
