The
Hammer Drill Is Just The Ticket. At times,
it is the hammer drill that is just the ticket.
This is especially true when it comes to drilling
into concrete. This drill has a double action.
It hammers the bit into the material being
drilled with a back and forth pounding action
at the same time that it rotates the bit. The
idea is to help the cutting edge of the bit
gain a better purchase in extremely hard materials.
For most of these drills the hammer action
can be turned off when it is not needed.

hammer drill bits are excellent tools for
drilling into concrete or brick. These bits
are carbide tipped and much harder than tempered
steel bits used in most drills. These bits
may also be called diamond tipped bits because
the carbide, like diamond, is essentially very
tightly compressed carbon. The material is
extremely hard, holds a sharpened edge well
and will hold up under the abuse of drilling
into concrete or brick.

useful for drilling into very hard materials
such as concrete, stone or brick. It is just
as useful for working with other materials such
