SDS drills types, working & advantages

SDS drills are an electric hammering device which is also occasionally called hammer and/or chisel drill. These machines are designed for strong and substantial kind of boring. These specialized power tools are equipped with the strength to pierce through a large array of strong materials be it steel or metal; bricks or masonry and even concrete or hard rock. Therefore, they are a wonderful handy machine perfect to carry out some heavy-duty tasks.

The 2 types of SDS hammer drill

When it comes to buying a hammer drill SDS, one comes across a large variety of manufacturers and authentic brands. While features of the machine largely remains similar, there is one marked difference which defines your scope of work with this tool.

1. Corded Version

Like all corded tools, this one draws energy from the mains source, eliminating the hassle of replenishing batteries every now and then. Nevertheless, they must be plugged in a socket to function, which might limit their access. The biggest plus of a corded model is that they exude more power compared to the battery operated versions and almost always extend a higher torque.

2. Cordless Option

The cordless variety is available in a wide range of power options starting from 18 volt SDS drill to a much more potent 110v SDS drill. Because of their enhanced movement and convinince, these are favored by most homeowners and DIYers who can work with a slightly less power. Conversely though, since they are powered by batteries, you will have to stay aware of the charge status all the time.

Common utilities of the 18v SDS drill:

  • Drills through harder materials for do-it-yourself projects and professionals.
  • A variety of settings are available on these machines like Rotary, Hammer, or a rotary plus hammer mode.
  • The hammer action only is commonly employed for flattening and breaking tasks.
  • The rotary only mode is perfect for workign with softer things such as wood that wouldnt require advanced action.

 

Did you know?

Here is an interesting fact about the name: S.D.S. Even though it is generally believed that it stands for ‘Slotted Drive System’, also sometimes called Slotted drive shaft or even Special direct system; this may not entirely be true.

Since it was invented in Germany out of the primary need to penetrate through concrete blocks, it was then termed as Stecken Drehen Sichern which in English means "Insert. Twist. Secure". Or it may have been ‘Steck dreh sitzt’; another Deutsche phrase translating to insert, twist, and fit.

But we may never be perfectly sure.
