Diablo Tools, which offers products for professional users, is revolutionising concrete drilling with the introduction of the AMPED™ Rebar Demon™ 4-Cutter Full Carbide Head Dust Extraction Hammer Drill Bit System. Another first-of-its-kind for the industry, the AMPED™ Rebar Demon™ range redefines concrete drilling by offering ultra-clean holes and working environments, unmatched speed, and extreme durability. This ultimate drilling solution allows users to minimise debris, maximise labour savings, and increase efficiency when drilling into clean concrete or reinforced concrete.
With higher-strength concrete and rebar continuing to dominate building trends, power tool manufacturers have had to develop more powerful drills for concrete drilling, demolition, and anchor setting. Construction codes are also stricter, causing professional users to seek out safer solutions that reduce dust for safety and OSHA compliance.
In 2019, Diablo introduced its Rebar Demon™ 4-cutter full carbide head hammer drill bit range - the strongest, fastest, and most durable solutions on the market for drilling precise holes in concrete. This premium range enables professionals to drill through reinforced concrete efficiently without having to switch to a rebar cutter.
Diablo Tools is elevating this industry changing technology even further with its new the AMPED™ Rebar Demon™ 4-Cutter Full Carbide Head Dust Extraction Hammer Drill Bit System that links each Rebar Demon™ drill bit to a patented vacuum/stainless steel dust sleeve that captures in-hole dust particles and reduces airborne silica. Users can now receive ultra-clean holes, ready for epoxy and anchor placement, while also removing up to 97% dust and debris in clean concrete, reinforced concrete (concrete with rebar), concrete, stone, rebar, and brick. In addition to ultra-clean holes, this innovation virtually eliminates the "Blow-Brush-Blow" cleaning method by simultaneously extracting dust debris while drilling holes, streamlining the five-step process down to two-steps, resulting in labour savings of up to 66%. This "Drill-to-Fill" solution increases speed and efficiencies by unlocking up to 3X faster hole preparation versus conventional drilling applications and eliminating the overall need for rebar cutters while also creating a safer work environment.
"Diablo is once again 'stepping up' to the demand of our professional users with a never-before-seen innovation," says Russell Kohl, President and CEO of Diablo/Freud Tools. "Our AMPED™ Rebar Demon™ Dust Extraction Hammer Drill Bit System is revolutionising the industry by creating a clean hole at unmatched speed and with extreme durability that makes the jobsite safer, and a more efficient work environment. With the Rebar Demon™, we reduce concrete to rubble. With our Dust Extraction Hammer Drill Bit System, we're going one step further and removing dust and debris. The AMPED™ Rebar Demon™ Hammer Drill Bits are the ultimate solution for professionals and deliver strong innovation and productivity enhancements that are unmatched on the market today! The excitement of these bits doesn't stop there. I am thrilled to announce that the AMPED™ Rebar Demon™ Dust Extraction Hammer Drill Bits have been recognised by the industry leader, Simpson Strong-Tie as an approved option for the Simpson Strong-Tie epoxy anchors at AT-3G, ET-3G or SET-3G. This is a true testament to the groundbreaking technology of this system, and I am beyond excited to see another industry leader recognising Diablo as the best."
