Rotary Hammers: Lower Vibration Levels Bosch introduced three new Bulldog Rotary Hammers at the World of Concrete in Las Vegas earlier this month which incorporate Bosch’s Active Vibration Control. An air cushion built into the hammer mechanism and dampening elements in the grip area reduce vibration levels. The 11/8-in. RH328VC and RH328VCQ deliver 2.6 lb ft of impact energy, while the 11/4-in. RH432VCQ delivers 3.7 lb ft of impact energy. The hammers have three operational settings: rotary hammer, hammer-only and rotation-only. Bosch Power Tools; 877-267-2499; www.boschtools.com
