SDS Drill Bits

The SDS bit was developed by Bosch in 1975 and the name comes from the German "Steck – Dreh – Sitz" (Insert – Twist – Stay). German-speaking countries may use "Spannen durch System" (Clamping System), though Bosch uses "Special Direct System" for international purposes. SDS Drill Bits have revolutionised the ease with which one can drill hard masonry. The SDS drill bits only fit SDS drills, and will outperform and outlast ordinary drill-bits by a good margin. Leofixings SDS drill bits are carbide tipped and can be re-sharpened. Carbide pointed tip reduce slippage on commencement of drilling. SDS Drill bits can be used with SDS percussion drill machines into masonry, concrete and stone. Leo Fixings offer SDS Drill bits in a wide variety of sizes to suit most fixing requirements. SDS Drill bits have a specialist flute design enabling effective dust extraction, increasing drilling speed. SDS Drill bits are used for drilling holes in hard materials like concrete/brick. Most hand drill systems accept SDS drill bits. SDS Drill bits provide optimum hold in the drill chuck, as well as improved drill bit guidance in hammering applications. This, in turn, means excellent power transfer. There is no need to retighten the drill chuck because the SDS drill bit locks automatically after it is inserted. This prevents skew fitting and stops the SDS drill bit from slipping out of the chuck. SDS Drill bits definitely make a uniquely good solution for DIY enthusiasts.
