SDS Plus Bits
Power Through Tough Materials with SDS Plus Drill Bits
When tackling drilling projects in hard materials like concrete, brick, and masonry, SDS Plus drill bits are essential. Designed specifically for use with SDS Plus hammer drills, these drill bits deliver powerful hammering action combined with rotary drilling for efficient penetration.
What are SDS Plus Drill Bits and How Do They Work?
Unlike standard drill bits, SDS Plus drill bits feature a unique shank design that allows for a secure and powerful connection with SDS Plus hammer drills. Here's a breakdown of their key characteristics:
SDS Plus Shank: This distinctive shank design features vertical grooves that lock securely into the chuck of an SDS Plus hammer drill. This interlocking mechanism allows for efficient transmission of hammering force during drilling.
Tungsten Carbide Tip: The cutting tip of an SDS Plus drill bit is typically made from tungsten carbide, an exceptionally hard and wear-resistant material that effectively drills through tough materials like concrete.
Fluted Design: Fluted channels along the body of the bit help clear dust and debris from the hole as you drill, promoting faster drilling and preventing overheating.
Choosing the Right SDS Plus Drill Bit
Selecting the appropriate SDS Plus drill bit for your project requires considering a few key factors:
Material: SDS Plus drill bits come in various configurations optimised for specific materials. Choose a bit designed for the material you'll be drilling, such as concrete, brick, or stone.
Diameter: SDS Plus drill bits are available in a wide range of diameters to accommodate different hole size requirements. Select a bit with the desired diameter for your project.
Application: Consider the specific application for the hole. For deep hole drilling in concrete, a drill bit with a longer length may be necessary.
