Powerful hammer drill
Skil’s 6490 S1 Torro is a 1020 Watt hammer-action power drill that offers a torque of 60 Nm and a percussive force of up to 32 300 strokes per minute. The casing is made of aluminium and consequently light to handle. What is more, the tool comes complete with a 16-piece accessory kit in a plastic carry case that includes a range of different-sized drill bits for use on a variety of types of material. This hammer drill can be used not only for drilling holes but for driving in screws as well. A speed regulator allows the user to adjust the tool to two different settings.

It is suitable for working on extremely hard stoneware tiles as well as roofing tiles, marble, granite, glass, fibreglass or carbon fibre reinforced plastics and “Carbon” plus porcelain. The drill is available in five different sizes.
