The DeWALT D25960K 40-lb Demolition Hammer is powered by a 15-amp motor that delivers 1,460 beats per minute. The hammer's active vibration control includes a counterbalance mechanism and a shock-mounted floating handle to dampen user vibration levels. A soft start reduces bit walking and prevents high-current spikes on startup. The hammer accepts both collared and non-collared 1/8-in. bits. DeWALT; 800-433-9258; www.dewalt.com
