Makita HR3541FC SDS Max Demolition Hammer Drill - SDS+ Hammer Drills - SDS+ Drills - Drills, Drivers & Screwdrivers - Power Tools | Axminster.co.uk

Will drill 35mm in concrete

 

[Masood]

Do you know if SDS Plus bits are compatible with SDS Max drills?

I've got the older model of this (no light) fantastic drill, can be a bit big for some jobs but eats through everything!
even cored upto 127mm with no problems.

 

[Killy Bing]

You need an adaptor but it makes it that much bigger

DeWalt SDS Max to SDS Plus Adaptor : Tooled-Up.com

to be honest with an sds max its mainly for chiselling and large drill bits.

or drilling into something seriously tough

Cheers Killy I'm reserving mine in sitting bourse NOW!!!

 

[gasmanrob]

It says 199 inc vat but just tried to order one and it ends up at £289

 

[Howsie]

Exactly. Pricing error. It's almost £100 too cheap.

 

[Killy Bing]

Damnit.....

got an email through and everything.

ring em up for it!

 

[Killy Bing]

Actually, i would screenshot the price, tweet, email, buy it, take it away, and demand a refund for the extra charge......

 

[Howsie]

Keep quiet and see what turns up. That's what I'd do.

 

[Killy Bing]

Actually book it for delivery!!

its still at 200 then

 

[gasmanrob]

Ok just tried again and it's back at 199

 

[gasmanrob]

Also not available in 110v

 

[rocketmanbkk]

Is it 240v or will I need a 110 pack?

 

[rocketmanbkk]

Just read gasman, so plug her in! Ordering now. It's cheap.

 

[gasmanrob]

Right I have just called to check if this is available in 110v and it is but it will cost £500!!!!!!!!!

the £199 is a genuine price as it is end of line. Mine is being delivered Monday put it on plastic it's a done deal!

For a £300 saving I'll gladly carry a 230v extension lead for this 1 item!

this couldn't have turned up at a better time as my baby chisel drill blew up yesterday

 

[gasmanrob]

Think if you order 1 Killy needs a thanks! Nice find

 

[rocketmanbkk]

Just ordered mine. Don't know when or where I'll use it but it is cheap, looked at other places and they want up to £450 odd for one. Thanks for this post. Just gotta tell the wife!! I'll buy her some chow mein to soften the blow! Yes, I'm cheap (&tight).

 

[rocketmanbkk]

Just recommended it to my mate also. He likes Makita.

By the way, how did you come across it?
