Product Information
Full details
This Faithfull Hex Extension Adaptor is designed for professionals and DIY enthusiasts using 13mm (1/2in) drill chucks with diamond core bits or other attachments featuring a 1/2in BSP thread. Its primary benefit is extending the reach of your drill, allowing access to tighter spaces or providing more clearance during drilling operations. A potential caveat is that the specific size of the adaptor (12mm x 240mm) must match your needs, as larger or smaller core bits may require different adaptors. Key features include its robust construction for durability, a standard 1/2in BSP thread for broad compatibility, and a hex shank suitable for secure grip in 13mm drill chucks.
