The icon is a little different to what I’ve seen on others and I don’t know how to tell otherwise. I have a job that involves drilling through a breeze block wall about 20cm and I don’t want the expense of buying an SDS if I can help it.

This drill was given to me a long time ago, hence not knowing what I have here.

Thanks!

    Working up in size doesn’t work all that well in my experience for masonry bits. They don’t cut material, they pulverize it. Trying to run a larger bit through an existing hole is prone to jamming.

    Can you get more connectors and a crimper and put on a new connector after running the cable through a smaller hole? That’s better for sealing anyway.

      Thanks. It’s a weird cable with 3 ends: RJ45, power barrel connector and reset switch. The RJ45 is the biggest, but the others aren’t too much smaller. I thought about having a junction box on the outside, but I’d like to keep it clean and tidy without.
