SDS Concrete & Masonry Drill Bits
SDS concrete bits are a type of drill bit designed for use with a hammer drill to bore holes in concrete, brick, and other masonry materials. They feature a specialized shank that allows for quick and easy bit changes without the need for a chuck key. SDS concrete bits come in various sizes and typically have two open grooves and two closed grooves that are connected by locking balls or segments, depending on the type of SDS system. These bits are designed to withstand the high levels of vibration and impact that are generated by hammer drills and are capable of producing clean, precise holes in tough materials.
- SDS Plus drill bits are designed to be smaller and thinner than regular drill bits, and typically have two open grooves and two closed grooves that are attached by locking balls. These bits are available in a range of sizes, and are particularly well-suited for drilling smaller holes due to their thinner construction.
- SDS Max drill bits are designed to be thicker than standard drill bits, with three open grooves that are attached to locking segments instead of balls. These bits are well-suited for use with larger hammer drills, allowing for the creation of bigger holes. Meanwhile, SDS Max chisels are typically employed for tasks such as chiseling, digging, chipping, and other heavy-duty work.
