Where it sits among SDS Max demolition hammers
Scaled against the 51 demolition hammers that take SDS Max chisels we list, so other sizes aren't in the mix. Not a score: bigger isn't always better for your job.
Maker doesn't state the test basis, so this isn't like for like with the EPTA figures that set the scale.
