FAQs about SDS Max Drill Bit Sets
What's the difference between SDS Max and SDS Plus?
SDS Max bits are larger, stronger and designed for heavy rotary hammers. They handle wider diameters and deeper penetration into tough masonry or reinforced concrete, compared to smaller SDS Plus bits.
Can SDS Max drill bits go through rebar?
Yes — many SDS Max bits are reinforced with 4-cutter tips or tungsten carbide heads to drill through rebar without damage or jamming.
Will SDS Max bits fit an SDS Plus drill?
No — SDS Max shanks are physically larger. They require a drill specifically designed for SDS Max bits. Check your drill specifications before purchasing.
What materials can SDS Max bits drill through?
SDS Max bits are ideal for concrete, reinforced concrete (with rebar), blockwork, natural stone, brick, and dense composites.
