Metallics SDS3865 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Metallics SDS3865 drill bit fit my rotary hammer, or do I need an SDS-Max tool?
The SDS3865 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 18mm shank and needs an SDS-Max bit instead. It also won't chuck properly in a standard keyed or keyless drill, since SDS-Plus relies on the slotted shank and the hammer's locking mechanism.
2) Is a 3/8 inch SDS-Plus bit the right size for 3/8 inch wedge anchors or Tapcons?
For a 3/8 inch wedge anchor or sleeve anchor, 3/8 inch is the matching hole size, so the SDS3865 is the bit you want. Tapcon-style concrete screws are different: a 3/8 inch screw does not take a 3/8 inch hole, so check the screw maker's specified bit diameter before using this one. Anchor manufacturers also specify hole depth, so confirm the 6-1/4 inch overall length gives you enough depth for your embedment.
3) How many bits come in the Metallics SDS3865 pack?
One bit per pack, supplied in a pouch. If you are kitting out a crew drilling 3/8 inch holes for strut, conduit clamps, or box mounts, order a quantity per installer rather than assuming a multi-pack.
4) Can I use the Metallics SDS3865 to drill through rebar in concrete?
The SDS3865 is a hammer drill bit for masonry work, and the data here describes it as an SDS-Plus hammer bit only. If you expect to hit rebar, use a rebar cutter bit rated for it; a standard carbide hammer bit will dull or stall when it contacts steel. For plain concrete, block, and brick at 3/8 inch, this bit is the correct tool.
5) What is the part number to reorder this Metallics 3/8 inch SDS-Plus bit?
Order it as Metallics SDS3865. That is the manufacturer part number for the 3/8 inch diameter, 6-1/4 inch overall length SDS-Plus hammer bit, single piece.
