SDS Max masonry drill bit with a 4-cutter carbide head and high-impact tip. The bit is heat- and fatigue‑treated (IRON BLAST process) for increased durability, designed to remove dust quickly through a four‑flute geometry and to resist rebar strikes. Made in Germany; includes a wear mark for anchor sizing and is covered by the manufacturer's no-break policy while the wear mark is visible (exclusions apply).
Project Ideas
Business
Mobile Post‑Installed Anchor & Doweling Service
Offer on‑site drilling for heavy anchors and rebar dowels in concrete (pergolas, railings, machinery pads). Use the wear mark to guarantee hole sizing for code‑compliant anchors and the 4‑cutter head to handle rebar strikes without stalling the job. Package pricing per hole depth/diameter and add services for epoxy installation and pull testing.
Retaining Wall Drainage Retrofit
Specialize in adding 1-1/8" weep holes to existing retaining walls to reduce pressure and prevent failures. Provide turnkey service: layout, drilling, PVC sleeves with geotextile, cosmetic covers, and cleanup with dust extraction. Market to landscapers, property managers, and homeowners; sell annual maintenance checks as a recurring revenue add‑on.
Boulder Fountain Supply for Landscapers
Produce and sell pre‑drilled boulders and concrete planters with clean 1-1/8" channels for 3/4" water lines. Your SDS‑Max bit’s long, efficient flutes help keep production fast in hard stone. Offer wholesale bundles with tubing, pumps, and lights, or a mobile drilling service to convert on‑site stones into custom features.
Concrete Pass‑Throughs for Trades
Provide rapid drilling of mid‑size penetrations for electricians, low‑voltage installers, and HVAC techs (e.g., 3/4" conduit, drain lines, or cable bundles) where core drilling isn’t required. The bit’s 18" working length reaches thicker walls, and the rebar‑resistant head reduces downtime from strikes. Charge per hole with rush/after‑hours rates for service calls.
Bollard and Base‑Plate Anchoring
Install bollards, sign bases, gate operators, and equipment base plates using adhesive or sleeve anchors requiring 1-1/8" holes. Leverage the wear mark to document hole accuracy for liability protection and the manufacturer’s no‑break policy to control consumable costs. Offer turnkey packages including layout, drilling, anchoring, and patching.

Boulder Fountain or Planter Water Channel
Drill a clean 1-1/8" pass‑through hole in a large rock or concrete planter to run 3/4" PVC tubing (OD ≈ 1.05") for a recirculating fountain or drip line. The 18" working length and open 4‑flute design help clear slurry and dust as you penetrate dense stone. Epoxy in a short PVC sleeve as a liner, connect to a small pump in a hidden basin, and finish with river stones and lighting.
Retaining Wall Weep Hole Retrofit
Relieve hydrostatic pressure behind existing CMU/stone walls by drilling 1-1/8" weep holes on a slight downward angle toward the outside. Insert 3/4" PVC sleeves wrapped in geotextile, then cover with a small grate. The 4‑cutter head and rebar‑resistant design help if you encounter reinforcement; the long bit length lets you reach through thick walls.
Stone Slab Bench Anchored to a Patio
Create a sleek outdoor bench by doweling stone or timber legs into an existing concrete slab. Drill 1-1/8" holes for 1" stainless or galvanized rod and matching holes in the legs; set with structural epoxy. The wear mark helps keep holes within spec for screen tubes or adhesive anchors, and the SDS‑Max shank ensures fast drilling in hard concrete.
Hidden Cable Pass‑Through in Masonry
Run low‑voltage cables (landscape lights, speaker wire, Ethernet) cleanly through a masonry wall by drilling a 1-1/8" tunnel. Line the hole with a short sleeve and snap in a low‑profile grommet for a finished look. The long helix clears dust quickly for accurate alignment, and the high‑impact tip helps you keep control even in aggregate‑rich concrete.
Secret Stash/Geocache Plug
Drill a 1-1/8" bore into an out‑of‑the‑way block or stone to hide a waterproof tube for a geocache or key. Make a matching plug from a core offcut or molded mortar cap textured to blend in. The bit’s 4‑cutter head cuts a clean, round hole in masonry, and the depth gives you room for a decently sized capsule.
