Used & new Power Tools & Hardware for sale in Islamabad & Rawalpindi
Where can I buy used power tools & hardware in Islamabad?
Buying tools used is normal in this trade; a corded drill or grinder that has been opened, brushed and reassembled can outlast a new budget one. Grades run New, Like New, Good Used and For Parts / Repair. With cordless kit the question is always the battery: ask how many packs come with it, whether the charger matches, and how long a pack holds under real work.

These are the checks that set the condition grade on anything we list — and the ones worth running yourself wherever you buy.
Listen for brush sparking
Give a corded tool a minute of free running. A shower of sparks visible through the vents, with a sharp burnt-varnish smell, means the brushes are down or the commutator is scored. Brushes are a cheap consumable on common models; a burnt armature is a rewind and rarely worth doing.
Rock the spindle
Unplugged, grip the chuck or the disc flange and try to move it side to side, then in and out. Any play you can feel is worn bearings or a bent spindle. On a grinder that shows up as a disc that wobbles as it spins; on a drill, as holes that wander off line.
Work the trigger slowly
Squeeze a variable-speed trigger through its whole travel, then test forward, reverse and the lock-on. Surging, dead spots at low speed, or a motor that will only run flat out, is a worn switch module, and those are model-specific and not always available locally.
Check the cable ends
Flex the lead where it enters the body, and again at the plug. Taped repairs, hardened or cracked insulation, and a moulded plug that has been cut off and replaced are all marks of a site tool. A cable that has been shortened is common and lowers what the tool fetches.
Check it is genuine
Copies of the well-known names are everywhere in this market. A copy feels light in the hand, the moulding seams are rough, label colours and spacing are slightly off, and the rating plate is a printed sticker rather than stamped or etched. Spares made for the original will not fit a copy.
Work the battery flat
A pack showing full on its gauge proves nothing. Charge it, then drive screws or make repeated cuts until it drops out. Cells that collapse after a short burst are done. Test every pack, not one, check the charger belongs to the same platform, and look for swelling or heat marks near the contacts.
