Electrical / Demolition Bits - SDS Plus

SDS Plus demolition bits are designed for controlled breaking and surface work where a full-size breaker is not practical. They suit light to medium-duty tasks on brick, render, and concrete.

The 10mm SDS Plus shank allows quick bit changes and efficient power transfer in compact rotary hammers. This makes them a go-to option for electrical and renovation work where accuracy matters. From chasing walls to cleaning up excess mortar, SDS Plus demolition bits give you the control needed to work neatly.

Precision Channelling and Surface Refinement

On site, SDS Plus demolition bits are used where precision is just as important as impact.

They are commonly used to chase channels into brick and plaster for conduit and wiring. This is typical in electrical rough-ins where clean, consistent runs make installation easier. They are also useful when opening up small sections for junction boxes or fittings.

In kitchens and bathrooms, these bits are used to remove tiles and adhesive. Wide chisels help lift material without digging too deep into the surface underneath. This reduces damage and keeps prep work to a minimum.

They are also handy for cleaning up concrete dags, trimming edges, or removing small sections of masonry during repair work. The lighter setup gives you better control compared to heavier demolition gear.

SDS Plus demolition bits are often used alongside SDS Plus drill bits, demolition bits - SDS Max, M class vacuum cleaner dust extractors, and H class vacuum cleaner dust extractors when preparing or finishing surfaces.

Bit Profiles and Hardened Steel Construction

The shape of the bit affects how it performs.

Point chisels focus impact into a small area, which helps break up hard material. Flat chisels are better for controlled removal and shaping. Wider scaling chisels cover more surface area, which makes them ideal for tile and adhesive removal.

Most SDS Plus demolition bits are made from heat-treated alloy steel. This helps them handle repeated impact while maintaining strength. The dual-groove shank design keeps the bit secure while allowing the movement needed for hammer action.

Angled or cranked chisels are also useful. They improve access and help maintain a better working angle, especially on floors or overhead surfaces.

Shank Care and Percussion Efficiency

A bit of care goes a long way in keeping performance consistent.

• Apply a light layer of grease to the shank

• Let the hammer action do the work

• Avoid excessive pressure during use

• Check for cracks or mushrooming

• Keep the shank and grooves clean

Greasing the shank helps reduce wear inside the chuck and keeps the bit moving freely. Forcing the tool can cause overheating and reduce the life of both the bit and the hammer.

If the tip starts to deform or discolour, it is a sign the bit is under too much stress. Regular checks help avoid failure and keep the job safe.

FAQs

What is the difference between an SDS Plus and an SDS Max shank?

SDS Plus suits lighter tools. SDS Max is designed for heavier-duty equipment.

Can these bits be used in a standard drill chuck?

No, they require an SDS Plus compatible tool.

When should I use a point chisel instead of a flat chisel?

Use a point chisel for breaking. Use a flat chisel for shaping or removal.

Are there bits designed for removing tile adhesive?

Yes, wide scaling chisels are suited to that task.

How often should I grease the shank?

A light application before use is usually enough.

Can these bits be used in rotary mode?

They are designed for hammer or hammer-only modes.

What is the benefit of an angled chisel?

It improves access and working position.

Why did my chisel turn blue near the tip?

This is usually caused by overheating.

Is there a limit to the tool size these bits suit?

They are designed for SDS Plus rotary hammers within typical power ranges.

How do I remove a jammed bit?

Release the chuck and remove it once the tool has cooled.
