Drilling large, precise holes through concrete, reinforced masonry, or natural stone is not something you can do with an ordinary twist bit and a standard drill. These tough...

A 25 mm (1 inch) hole in concrete is the gateway size for serious structural anchoring — M20 and M24 through-bolts, heavy-duty chemical anchor capsules, and the drill diameter for...

At 35 mm in diameter and over 600 mm long, this is not a bit you reach for to mount a bracket or hang a picture. This is a heavy-duty SDS-max bit built for serious concrete...

When you are drilling into reinforced concrete day after day — hitting rebar, grinding through dense aggregate, and pushing bits to the limit of their working life — the cost of a...

At 32 mm in diameter and over half a metre long, this SDS-max bit is built for the kind of holes that standard bits cannot reach — through thick foundation walls for drainage...

When a standard SDS-plus bit hits its limit at around 16 or 20 mm in diameter, and the job calls for a 22 mm hole through reinforced concrete — for a heavy-duty anchor bolt, a...

When you need to drill a hole 51 mm in diameter through a solid concrete wall, a standard twist drill bit is not an option — the forces would destroy the bit and the hammer too....

There is a point where SDS-Plus reaches its limit and the job demands the step up to SDS-Max. When you are drilling 25 millimetre and larger holes for heavy structural anchors,...

When standard-length bits bottom out before they reach the far side of a thick foundation wall, structural column, or multi-layer masonry construction, a long-reach SDS-max bit is...

When a standard two-cutter SDS-max bit starts to dull in hard concrete, progress slows, the bit runs hot, and the operator compensates with more pressure — which accelerates wear...
