The definitive origin of the first hammer drill is a matter of discussion, although if you look at "hammer drills" and "rotary hammers" as separate categories, the origins are clear. Hilti had the first "electro-pneumatic" rotary hammer on the market in 1967 (the Hilti TE 17) and the Milwaukee Electric Tool Corporation states that in 1935, it was selling a lightweight 1/4-inch electric hammer drill (cam-action) .

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“Literary works cannot be taken over like factories, or literary forms of expression like industrial methods. Realist writing, of which history offers many widely varying examples, is likewise conditioned by the question of how, when and for what class it is made use of.”
—Bertolt Brecht (1898–1956)
“These anyway might think it was important
That human history should not be shortened.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
“It’s nice to be a part of history but people should get it right. I may not be perfect, but I’m bloody close.”
—John Lydon (formerly Johnny Rotten)
