Lifetime and productivity increase with an impact
New Hilti 18 volt impact drivers and wrenches are powered by brushless motors
TULSA, Okla. – January 25, 2012 — Hilti announces the first family of impact drivers and
wrenches with high efficiency brushless motors—the Hilti SID 18-A CPC Compact Impact Driver, SIW
18-A ½” Compact Impact Wrench, SIW 18-A 3/8” CPC Compact Wrench and the high capacity versions
SID 18-A CPC Impact Driver, SIW 18-A ½” Impact Wrench, and the SIW 18-A 3/8” CPC Impact
Wrench.
All of these new impact tools feature a highly efficient hammering mechanism that delivers more
work per charge to the applications because of the precision hammering and heat treatment process used.
This new line of tools was developed with lifetime and productivity in mind using Hilti’s
brushless motor technology which provides long lasting, reliable power because there are no brushes or
commutators, which are wear parts for other tools. These high efficiency motors convert more of the
battery’s energy into power while reducing the motor heat—which leads to longer tool life.
Built to outlast, these tools have sealed electronics to help protect against dust and humidity, an
intelligent power switch to prevent burn outs, and four LED lights which provide better visibility of the
work surface.
The Hilti 18 volt difference is in the batteries. The compact versions of these tools come with a
1.6 Ah compact battery to provide lighter weight while the new B 18 3.3 Ah battery offers 25% more
energy for the highest work per charge and ultimate run time. Using Hilti’s superior lithium ion battery

design, the ultimate run time comes from individual cell management which monitors the electronics and
helps protect each cell against overheating, overloading and deep discharge. This, combined with sealed
electronics, an accurate State of Charge display and drop resistance housing provides corded performance
in cordless tools.
By adding this line of impact tools, Hilti extends their line to provide for more cordless
applications. The Hilti 18 volt platform also includes the TE 4-A Rotary Hammer, SFH 18-A Hammer
Drill/Driver, SF 18-A drill/driver, SIW 18T-A High Torque Impact Wrench, WSR 18-A Reciprocating
Saw, SCW 18-A Circular Saw, SD 4500-A Screwdriver*, ST 1800-A18 Adjustable Torque Screwdriver*
and SFL 18 flashlight.
Backed by Hilti’s Lifetime Service*, the tools, batteries and chargers are all covered by this
unique service agreement that includes two years of no-cost coverage including wear and tear. With
