The DCH172N-XJ 18V XR Ultra Compact SDS+ Rotary Hammer – Body Only is a high-performance cordless drill engineered for professionals and serious DIYers who need powerful drilling and light chiselling in tight or restricted spaces. Part of DeWalt’s renowned 18V XR battery platform, this ultra-compact rotary hammer delivers the impact force and versatility of larger tools — all without a cord — making it ideal for construction, renovation, and everyday site work.
Featuring an SDS+ chuck system, this tool allows quick, secure bit changes and efficient transfer of hammering force for fast drilling into concrete, brick, block, and masonry. The compact profile and reduced weight make it exceptionally easy to use in overhead applications, between joists, inside cupboards, or in confined corners where bulkier hammers struggle.
The brushless motor boosts performance by reducing internal friction and heat, helping you get longer runtime, smoother operation, and increased tool longevity compared with brushed models. Even though it’s compact, the DCH172N-XJ delivers strong impact energy, giving you confidence when drilling fixings, anchors, and holes for plumbing or electrical services.
Ergonomics are a core strength of this design. The lightweight body and well-balanced layout reduce operator fatigue during prolonged use, while the comfortable grip improves control and confidence in awkward positions. A variable speed trigger gives you fine control over drilling speed and power, and the integrated LED light helps illuminate dark workspaces such as basements and corners.
As a body only tool, this model is perfect for users who already own DeWalt 18V XR batteries and chargers — helping you expand your kit without duplicating power packs. It’s a smart choice for tradespeople who demand cordless convenience and professional performance from a compact package.
This rotary hammer is ideal for builders, electricians, plumbers, HVAC techs, renovators, and maintenance professionals who need a lightweight yet capable cordless solution for drilling and light chiselling in concrete and masonry.
Standard drills and drivers often struggle with concrete and masonry, while larger rotary hammers can’t access tight spaces. The DCH172N-XJ solves both problems by offering compact cordless power with SDS+ impact performance — giving strong drilling ability in restricted areas and eliminating reliance on mains power.
Budget rotary hammers typically lack power, efficient motor design, and SDS bit retention, leading to poor performance and frequent battery drain. The DCH172N-XJ stands out with its brushless motor efficiency, professional-grade SDS+ system, robust build quality, and compatibility with the wide 18V XR range, delivering long-lasting performance and reliability that outperforms low-end tools.
Is a battery included?
No — this is a body-only tool. Compatible DeWalt 18V XR batteries and chargers are sold separately.
What size drill bits does it accept?
It uses SDS+ bits, ideal for standard masonry and concrete applications.
Can it do chiselling?
Yes — it supports light chiselling and demolition tasks.
Is this suitable for tight spaces?
Absolutely — its ultra-compact size and lightweight design make it ideal for restricted access areas
