General Questions About SDS Drill Bits
Learn the basics of SDS drill bits, including how they work, what materials they’re best for, and why they outperform standard bits.
What is an SDS drill bit?
An SDS (Special Direct System) drill bit is a specialized bit designed to work with rotary hammer drills. Unlike standard drill bits, SDS bits have slots or grooves in their shank, allowing them to slide in and out of the drill chuck while spinning. This movement enables efficient hammering action, making them ideal for tough materials like concrete, stone, and brick.
What types of SDS drill bits does TaskTek offer?
We offer SDS-Plus, SDS-Max, and SDS-Top drill bits in various sizes and tip designs to suit different drilling needs sourced from trusted brands and supplied by a UK-based distributor.
What’s the difference between SDS-Plus and SDS-Max?
SDS-Plus fits smaller rotary hammers and is ideal for light to medium tasks, making it a popular choice across the UK-based market. SDS-Max fits larger tools and delivers the power needed for tough, deep drilling.
Are TaskTek SDS drill bits suitable for concrete?
