Specifications

Which one do I need?

This is the 6 x 150mm Impactor. Pick the 150mm length when your fixing needs a deeper hole or has to pass through a thick render. Both are aimed at hammer cordless drills, where the battery saving applies.

How to use

1. Scan the wall for pipes and cables before you start.
2. Fit the bit in the chuck and tighten it fully.
3. Mark the hole and begin slowly without hammer action to locate the tip.
4. Switch to hammer mode once the hole is started and keep the drill square to the wall.
