Detailed Description
Built for the accuracy anchor installation demands — the difference between a route that holds for decades and hardware that never quite sits right.
Setting a permanent bolted anchor means the hole has to be right the first time: correct diameter, straight, and clean through whatever the rock or concrete throws at the bit, including rebar in retrofit and structural work. The TE-CX's solid carbide head uses gradient technology specifically engineered to drill through rebar rather than deflect off it, so route developers and riggers get a true, on-line hole instead of a wandering one that compromises anchor placement. That same head holds tight tolerances well past where standard SDS Plus bits start drifting out of spec — up to 30% more usable lifetime — which matters on a multi-pitch bolting day when swapping bits mid-project isn't an option. A quadruple helix keeps drilling speed consistent from the first hole to the last, and two built-in wear indicators take the guesswork out of field decisions: one confirms the bit is still accurate enough for anchor-setting work, the other flags replacement eligibility in the rare case of breakage.
Features
- Solid carbide head with gradient technology for wear resistance and true rebar penetration
- Up to 30% longer usable lifetime than standard SDS Plus bits — fewer bit changes on multi-anchor jobs
- Quadruple helix and optimized head geometry maintain consistent drilling speed over the bit's full life
- Indicator mark confirms suitability for anchor-setting accuracy
- Separate wear mark on the helix for breakage/replacement assessment
- Suited to permanent anchor installation, route development, and post-installed rebar connections
