Plumbers, Electrician, Builders and general tool experts,


I picked up the subject drill without a manual or drill bits. I can see a larger hex 18mm across the flats on the outer most part that accepts the bit, there is a slightly smaller hex further in.

Can someone tell me if this type of chuck will accept SDS Max, SDS Plus or SDS Multi bits??

Or some other bit type? If this later one is ther an adaptor for the SDS bit types?

Looks like its the smaller hex size bits that you need.

Got the data from this place http://www.icscuttingtools.com/catalog/page_162.pdf

Are you looking for chisel bits? The best bet is a tool specialist, bunnings don't carry the size that your looking, they have SDS Max, SDS and then the really big hex, about 1 inch from memory.

I don't know the proper name for it but the right size should be pretty apparent on the shelf.

Yes looks like it is HEX 1/2. Which Bunnings don't have.

I had to get a (I hate to say it) Ozito for $65, I hope it can drill through the foundations.

Hi,
have just put two 90 mm holes through a 150mm concrete wall with minimum dramas using a borrowed Ozito.

cheers

Had my Ozito for about 3 years now and it just won't die (although it doesn't get used all that regularly now). Has no problems with 300 mm long plus drill bits and pretty good at taking up bonded tiles etc with the shovel bits

Yeah those ozitos are good. Every time theyre on special they sell out very quickly to all the tradies that flog them to death. Talking to them they're happy if they get 6 months out of them treating them however they like. The better trade brands might get a year or 2 out of them but are 4-5 times the price.

Yes the Ozito did the job. And the sales bloke said that because of the 1 year replacement warranty the tradies are getting them. At $65 it has done the job.

I'd still like to get the Makita 8022B going, did not find any drill bits for it. Hoping for am adapter,

funny he mentioned that as most of that ozito gear and like from Bunnings only has a 1 year "homeowners" warranty. Not for Tradesmen. Of cousre that doesnt stop tradies from returning them on a sunday after it just broke at "home"

Well I am starting to curse the variability in chuck/anvil of different brands.

Ring up Makita service agent. "Do you have 13mm Hex to SDS plus converters?" "Wait, I'll check" Minutes later. "Nah, It would be too heavy for the anvil anyway"

Went down to Just Tools and looked for a longer bit than the standard 200mm working length, 250mm full length to see if I could get through two courses of bricks from one side of the wall instead of having to crawl under the house to finish the hole from the underside of the house. Having had to acquire an SDS plus Ozito where every bit was worth twice the cost of the drill, I went looking for a longer SDS plus bit. Nah mate it would be a special order:mad: "The SDS plus is on its limits you would not want to go any longer" says the sales bloke!! What? The length wont make much difference, the cutting is happening at the front of the bit. Well I lost that salesman! Do you have any Makita 13mm HEX bits? No. Do you have any extensions for the SDS plus bits? Yes, here. It just happens to be a 7/16 hex Milwaukee drive end extension to accept an SDS plus bit.

So a converter is too heavy for a Makita anvil yet Milwaukee not only make an adapter but make it into a 24" extension on their smaller 7/16" hex drive.

Bloody manufacturer unique standards and sales people:mad:

Had to finish my hole off with a hammer tapping on the end of the bit and a pair Vice Grips to turn it/free it for another go. Finished the whole in about ten times longer than it took me to drill the first 200mm.

Owner of a Makita 8022B that I can't get bits for and an Ozito that is worth less than one Masonry bit and a couple of hundred dollars of SDS plus bits (25mm and 30mm).

Hi,
we had some work done by Uretek (http://www.uretek.com.au) on my parents' place, and those chaps were using a 2m long drill to get under the foundations.
It did look like a standard rotary hammer drill, but at that stage I knew little about them.
cheers

Yep, and it's prominently displayed on all their documentation.
Not that I'd know.....


(but there's this black tool case sans any labelling whatsoever that sits between my Panasonic, Hilti, Hitachi and Makita gear in the truck.
Embarrassed ? Moi ? :angel: )

Mmm. There's a reason almost everyone I knew who has to do serious construction drilling (esp. cores) in the UK has Hilti.

The problem with getting compatible bits & pieces is, I suspect, largely to do with the manufacturers not allowing access to their full ranges for Australia.

Love the ozito drills.
Had 4 over the years, gave them to guys working for me - didnt matter if they killed them, they are so cheap - not that any of them dies apart from brushes needing replacement.
Like to have variable speed but for $70 who cares.
My 25mm 450mm drill bits cost almost as much to buy each
