Milwaukee super hawg!

TJC1 · May 26, 2019

Does any have a Milwaukee super hawg 18v drill?

Been trying multiple ways of drilling joists on new builds over the years. Impact drivers, angle drills both 18v & 230v mains drill etc....... (all makita)

Came across the super hawg the other day and cant seem to find one bad review on it!!

Just wondering if anyone has one and has any reviews or comments on it??

Yep, love it. Use their bits and it’s awesome! Chips fly everywhere.

Had a go on the smaller one at a trade stand, and even that one was very powerful and effortless.

Do you find it narrow enough to fit between standard ceiling joist on common new builds? looks quiet wide

and yes its narrow enough to fit between with a auger in (not the long ones)

Never had an issue with it fitting but I don’t ever do ‘common new builds’. Any domestic I do is bespoke, one off houses. As corbs says use shorter bits.
Btw I use mine with a 5Ah battery, never needed anything more...yet.

Id say hole hawg would probably do whay you need it to the super hawg is a beast

Mine came with a free set of the milwaukee bits. These ones, they have replaceable blades. They literally chew through anything. The bits come with an extension rod which has proved very useful.

If I recall correctly I found the cheapest price on the internet and then CEF beat that price for me. However the last time I spoke to my account manager about Milwaukee prices they weren't very competitive at all. Shop around.
