Makita DHR183Z 18V LXT Brushless SDS Plus Rotary Hammer 18mm with DX16 HEPA Dust Extractor - Body Only

Supplied with DHR183Z rotary hammer and DX16 dust extractor. Battery and charger are not included.

The Makita DHR183Z 18V LXT Brushless SDS Plus Rotary Hammer with DX16 Dust Extraction System provides a compact cordless solution for drilling into concrete and masonry while helping control dust directly at the drilling point.

At the heart of the kit is the Makita DHR183Z, a lightweight 18V LXT rotary hammer powered by an efficient brushless motor. It delivers up to 1,100rpm, 5,000 impacts per minute and 1.7J of impact energy, with a maximum drilling capacity of 18mm in concrete, 13mm in steel and 24mm in wood.

Its compact size makes the DHR183 particularly well suited to repetitive fixing, anchor and installation work where a larger SDS Plus machine may be unnecessary.

The DHR183 features Makita AVT Anti-Vibration Technology, helping reduce vibration transmitted to the operator during hammer drilling. A vibration-absorbing side handle, variable speed trigger, constant speed control and electric brake further improve control and usability.

This package also includes the dedicated Makita DX16 Dust Extractor Attachment with HEPA Filter, creating a compact all-in-one drilling and dust collection system.

The DX16 attaches directly to the DHR183 and collects concrete and masonry dust as the hole is drilled. The integrated HEPA filtration system captures very fine dust particles, while the transparent 0.4 litre dust container makes it easy to see when the unit needs emptying.

Best of all, the DX16 is powered directly by the rotary hammer, so no additional battery or separate dust extractor is required.

DHR183Z + DX16: Drilling and Dust Extraction in One System

Combining the DHR183 with the DX16 creates an especially convenient setup for tradespeople regularly drilling fixing holes into concrete and masonry.

Instead of using a separate vacuum cleaner, extraction hose and drill, the DX16 travels with the machine and collects dust immediately around the drill bit.

This makes the combination particularly useful for:

• Electrical installation
• Plumbing and heating installation
• Mechanical fixing
• HVAC installation
• Property maintenance
• Interior construction
• Concrete anchor installation
• Wall plug installation
• Overhead drilling
• Repetitive fixing work

Why Choose the Makita DHR183Z with DX16?

Compact Professional SDS Plus Performance

With 1.7J impact energy and an 18mm concrete capacity, the DHR183 offers plenty of performance for everyday fixing and installation work without the additional size and weight of a larger combination hammer.

Integrated Dust Collection

The included DX16 eliminates the need to connect a separate vacuum and hose for many drilling applications. Dust is collected directly around the drill bit as you work.

HEPA Filtration

The DX16 uses an integrated HEPA filtration system designed to capture very fine dust particles generated during drilling.

AVT Anti-Vibration Technology

Makita's AVT system helps reduce vibration transmitted to the operator, making the DHR183 particularly suitable for repetitive drilling applications.

Brushless Motor

The brushless motor provides efficient power delivery with no carbon brushes to replace, helping maximise performance and service life.

Part of the Makita 18V LXT Platform

The DHR183Z operates from compatible Makita 18V LXT Li-ion batteries, making it a particularly attractive option for users who already own Makita LXT cordless tools.

Expert Tip

The DHR183Z and DX16 combination is particularly well suited to tradespeople who spend most of their time drilling smaller fixing and anchor holes in concrete.

Although the DHR183 can drill up to 18mm in concrete, its optimum drilling range is approximately 3.2-10mm, making it an excellent choice for common plugs, anchors, concrete screws and installation fixings.

The DX16 then collects dust directly around the bit, creating a far more convenient setup than carrying a separate extractor and hose for smaller drilling jobs.

If you require regular chiselling, chasing or tile removal, consider a Makita SDS Plus combination hammer with a dedicated hammer-only mode, as the DHR183 is designed primarily for drilling.
