Good question pal , obviously coreing and I am sure a good quality SDS mains drill would suffice, but these are also mini breakers and chiselers, you could knock a house down with one ( take a while though lol ) the chisel will shift plaster / tiles etc off a wall . So the odd time you use them for the breaker / chiseling, they are invaluable. Not sure what to do !!

Have you looked at Hilti?

I've always found em good. This one I have now is over 20 and the one before it was too and that started life as a demo!

Expensive though, enough to make a man wince!

Bosch 36v sds but won't core

Why not?

Why not?

Your putting it through what it's not meant to do and will cause extra wear

And I hate coring any time I do I normally find a hard wall / brick

Think my 240v SDS is a Ryobi. Actually not sure what it is. Will check in the morning. Had it as a present one year (about 6 years old) never missed a beat.

I love these

TE-Y-GB (SDS Max) - Hammer Drill Bits (SDS) - Hilti United Kingdom

Done two holes today through very hard red fired bricks about 3 mins a hole

Any videos on them being used?

If I remember I will get you one when I use it next

But this will do in the meantime (hilti drill)

I must have had my HR5000c for as long although it doesn't get out so much nowadays. What size are you after as there seems to be a healthy second hand market in these once favorite of hire shops?

@Shaun...£400+ for a drill bit, really???

Didn't pay that if you look on eBay they normally go for 70-100

Can only agree... top drill bit. Not the cheapest though but worth spending the money
