Metallics SDS1265 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Metallics SDS1265 bit fit my rotary hammer, or do I need an SDS-Max tool?
The SDS1265 has an SDS-Plus shank, so it drops into any SDS-Plus rotary hammer chuck without an adapter. It will not fit an SDS-Max tool, which uses a larger shank. For SDS-Max machines you need a bit made for that shank style.
2) What size anchor can I set with a 1/2 inch SDS1265 hammer bit?
The SDS1265 drills a 1/2 inch diameter hole, which is the hole size called out for 1/2 inch wedge anchors, sleeve anchors and 1/2 inch concrete screw anchors in masonry or concrete. Match the anchor manufacturer's stated hole diameter to 1/2 inch before using it.
3) Can I use the SDS1265 hammer bit in a standard keyed or keyless drill chuck?
No. The SDS-Plus shank is not round and smooth the way a straight-shank masonry bit is, so it will not hold in a three-jaw keyed or keyless chuck. It needs a rotary hammer with an SDS-Plus chuck. If you only have a standard hammer drill, buy a straight-shank 1/2 inch masonry bit instead.
4) Is a 6-1/4 inch SDS-Plus bit long enough to drill through a concrete slab or deck?
Overall length on the SDS1265 is 6-1/4 inches, and part of that is shank and flute sitting in the chuck, so usable drilling depth is less than the full length. It suits anchor holes in slabs, walls and block for strut, conduit clamps and hanger rod. For through-holes in thick concrete or a full slab penetration, step up to a longer 1/2 inch SDS-Plus bit.
5) How many bits come in the Metallics SDS1265, and how is it packaged?
One bit per order. It ships in a pouch rather than a tube or case, so for a crew setting a lot of 1/2 inch anchors, order the quantity of individual bits you need.
6) What part number do I order for the Metallics 1/2 inch x 6-1/4 inch SDS-Plus bit?
Order Metallics SDS1265. That is the manufacturer part number for the 1/2 inch diameter, 6-1/4 inch SDS-Plus hammer drill bit, sold as a single piece.
