FAQs
Will this bit work with a standard cordless drill?
No, this bit has an SDS-plus shank and requires a rotary hammer drill specifically designed for SDS-plus accessories.
Can I use this for drilling into wood or metal?
No, this bit is designed specifically for concrete, masonry, and stone applications. Using it on wood or metal will lead to poor results and potential damage to the material.
What is the total length of the bit?

Is the shank diameter the same as the drill diameter?

How do I know if my drill is SDS-plus compatible?

Troubleshooting
Bit is getting stuck in the hole
Ensure the drill is in hammer mode and retract the bit periodically while running to allow the helix to eject accumulated dust.
Excessive heat during drilling
Reduce the downward pressure and ensure the flute is not blocked. Take short breaks to allow the bit to cool down if drilling extremely deep or hard material.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, simply retract the chuck collar of your SDS-plus rotary hammer and insert the bit until it clicks into place. No tightening of keys is required. For compatibility, this bit must be used with SDS-plus machines; attempting to use it in a standard drill will result in damage to the tool and the bit shank. To prolong the life of the bit, avoid applying excessive lateral force, which can cause bending. After use, inspect the carbide head for chips and clear any debris from the shank before storing it in a cool, dry place to prevent corrosion.
