Hitachi A Revolution in Power Tool technology


Hitachi are leaders in technological innovation, spanning the home electronics, healthcare, transport, IT, finance automotive and construction sectors. Now, their developers have introduced brushless technology into the power


tool market and are the first manufacturer to incorporate this with 4.0Ah Lithium- Ion batteries. From June, tradesman can expect up to 200% longer runtime (when compared to 3.0Ah brushed motor models). Their latest models integrate the newly developed brushless motor, high performance Lithium-Ion batteries, advanced ‘Multiplex’ control circuitry and electronic trigger switch technology to create power drills that are around 30% more efficient than conventional motors. Simon Miller from Hitachi says: “Our new brushless motor power drills are


quieter and generate less heat, allowing for improved dust proofing and far greater runtime and longer service life. The motor is brushless therefore no friction or sparks are produced by the commutator. They also have a new electronic trigger switch which only requires half the pulling force of a conventional model, making it significantly easier for those using it and giving greater control. “We know what builders, electricians and plumbers need to get the job done.


That’s why we believe that our new range of brushless technology power drills will be a must-have for any tradesman.” Hitachi’s Power Tool - Brushless Range have a three year Hitachi Lithium-Ion


tool warranty when you sign up online within 4 weeks of purchase (terms and conditions apply). They come with two BSL1840 batteries, a UC18YRSL 60 minute charger and a carrying case. For more information visit www.hitachi- powertools.co.uk or call 01908 354700.
