Since Armeg introduced their Twister Impact Masonry® drill bits last year, they have been a resounding success with electricians. Designed from the ground upwards for Impact Drivers with a specially engineered SQS Super Quick Spiral® flute which utilises the machine’s high rotational speed to rapidly clear spoil and deliver maximum drilling efficiency.
Crucially, the same Impact Driver can then also be used for driving screws and fixings – allowing the user to Drill. Swap. Drive – especially useful when working at height.
A depth-stop and carefully chosen size range to suit popular industry fixings make the range both application and installation specific.
Two further ‘Impact Masonry’ drill bits have just been added to the range.
Firstly, the Twister Impact Masonry XL®. This is another impact-rated bit featuring SQS flute technology, but with a longer 110mm working length for through-fixture drilling. Although designed for masonry use, these bits have multi-material capabilities, so a wooden baton can be held to masonry and the drill bit makes short work of both materials before then securely driving the baton with a frame-fixing.
Secondly, in answer to demands for a depth-stop drill bit suitable for hard materials such as concrete and engineering brick, new Impact Masonry Plus® bits bring Super Quick Spiral flute technology to SDS and hammer action drilling.
These innovative, game-changing bits are made in Armeg’s own factory on the outskirts of Sheffield, and are sold in FSC certified sustainable packs, supporting both British industry and our wider environment.
