Frequently Asked Questions | FAQs
What is a 22mm Blacksmith drill bit?
Blacksmith drill bits (also known as reduced-shank bits) have a large 22mm cutting head but a stepped-down base (typically 10mm or 13mm). This design allows you to drill large 22mm holes into heavy-duty metals like steel and iron using a standard drill chuck, without needing to invest in a larger, specialised power tool.
What is the best 22mm drill bit for routing thick pipes through joists?
For routing large 22mm plumbing pipes or thick cables through structural timber, a 22mm auger bit or a flat wood (spade) bit is the best choice. Flat wood bits are great for fast, rough clearance, while auger bits feature a threaded tip and deep spiral flutes that pull the bit smoothly through thick timber, efficiently clearing large amounts of sawdust to prevent jamming.
Can I use a 22mm SDS Plus bit in a standard hammer drill?
No, SDS Plus and SDS Max drill bits have specialised slotted shanks designed specifically for the spring-loaded chucks of SDS rotary hammer drills. They will not fit securely into a standard 3-jaw chuck found on typical combi or hammer drills. If you are using a standard drill, you will need to look for a masonry bit with a straight or hex shank.
