Impact Drills — Ronix Saudi Arabia

Impact drills (also called hammer drills) combine rotation with a percussive cam-driven action — the right tool when you need to drill into brick, light masonry, and softer concrete without the cost or weight of a rotary hammer. Ronix impact drills run from 500W up to 1100W, with 2-speed gearboxes for both fast drilling in wood/steel and high-torque masonry work. They're the all-rounder for general contractors, MEP technicians, and finish-out crews who need one tool that handles 80% of jobsite drilling.

Best Applications

Drilling into brick, lightweight masonry, and softer concrete blocks
General-purpose drilling in wood, steel, and aluminum
Driving screws and lag bolts (with 2-speed gearbox shifted to low)
Mixing thin-set, paint, and grout with mixer paddles
Light tile-drilling with masonry bits (use rotation+hammer mode)

Buying Guide — What to Look For

Wattage (motor power)

650W for light tasks, 750-850W for general contracting work, 1000-1100W for sustained masonry drilling and mixing.

Chuck capacity (mm)

13mm chuck is standard for most bits; 16mm chuck handles larger spade bits and hole saws.

Variable speed + reverse

Essential for driving screws and starting holes cleanly. All Ronix impact drills include variable trigger control.

2-speed gearbox

Low speed (high torque) for screwdriving, high speed for drilling — broader use range from one tool.

Forward/reverse switch placement

Above-trigger placement is faster to flip mid-job vs side-mounted; check ergonomics for your typical work.

★ SAUDI MARKET NOTE

For dense Saudi concrete and rebar-rich columns, an impact drill is a stretch — a rotary hammer is the right tool. Use impact drills for brick walls, drywall, and finish-out work.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between an impact drill and a rotary hammer?

An impact drill uses a percussive cam to add hammering — fine for brick and soft concrete. A rotary hammer uses a piston-driven mechanism delivering far more impact energy — required for dense concrete and rebar-rich structural work.

Can I drill metal with an impact drill?

Yes — switch off the hammer mode and use the rotation-only setting. Use HSS or cobalt drill bits for steel, and lower speed with cutting oil for aluminum.

What chuck size do I need?

13mm chuck handles 95% of contractor drilling. 16mm only matters for large spade bits or hole saws above 50mm.

Is variable speed important?

Yes — variable speed is critical for clean hole starts on hard surfaces and for screwdriving without stripping heads. Every Ronix impact drill has it.

Do these come with a warranty?

All Ronix electric impact drills carry a 2 Years Warranty honored by BRO Global locally in Jeddah.
