How to use for Concrete and Masonry Drill Bits
- Select a Suitable Rotary Hammer Drill: Begin by selecting an appropriate rotary hammer drill, ensuring compatibility between the drill type (SDS Plus or SDS Max) and the corresponding drill bits or accessories. Contrary to common belief, simply matching an SDS bit with and SDS drill still may not be suitable, emphasising the importance of checking the 'power tool weight' against the chosen drill bit size. Consult technical literature or your drill bit supplier for accurate information.
- Establish Drill Depth: Determine the required drill depth based on anchor installation guidelines. Utilise the rotary hammer drill's depth stop or mark the drill bit accordingly, allowing extra depth for dust and debris accumulation at the hole's bottom.
- Connect Drill Bit: Connect the drill bit using the straightforward push-lock systems of SDS Plus and SDS Max. Insert the drill bit shank into the drill chuck and release by pulling back the chuck sleeve and pulling the drill bit out.
- Wear Personal Protective Equipment: Prioritise safety by wearing appropriate personal protective equipment, including eye protection, ear protection, and a mask, given the potential hazards associated with drilling in concrete and masonry.
- Set Up Dust Containment: Mitigate dust-related risks by setting up effective dust containment measures. Consider using a vacuum (M Class or better) during drilling or opt for ICCONS Heller Set Safe Dust Extraction drill bits for optimal on-site dust reduction.
- Begin Drilling: Commence drilling at the designated mark: Avoid excessive pressure; let the rotary hammer drill's weight do the work. If the drills hammer action is engaged, this is sufficient pressure. This minimises unnecessary drill bit wear. Periodically withdraw the drill bit from the hole every 5-10 seconds (more frequently for smaller sizes). This allows the drill bit to cool and clears excess dust, preventing blowback and enhancing overall performance.
- When Hitting Rebar: Reduce pressure and speed to prevent thermal overload. Unlike machine bits, drill bits lack a cutting edge, and rebar is simply punched or suppressed under high temperature. Take regular breaks to allow the bit to cool in the air, or consider using a specialised tool like the Heller Rebar Breaker (SDS Plus) to navigate through reinforcement without compromising carbide drill bit lifespan.
- After drilling, verify the hole depth and clean it according to anchor technical specifications or application requirements. Regular checks and adherence to guidelines ensure successful and safe drilling outcomes.
