Diablo SDS-Plus Rebar Cutter DMAPLRC1060 7/8 Inch Masonry Coring Tool (12 Inch Total Length Carbide Tip Concrete Embedded Steel Rotary Drilling)

Diablo DMAPLRC1060 7/8" x 12" SDS-Plus Carbide-Tipped Concrete Embedded Rebar Cutter

The Diablo DMAPLRC1060 7/8-inch SDS-Plus rebar cutter cores through structural grade rebar and steel mesh embedded inside cured concrete foundations without fracturing surrounding masonry or dulling standard hammer bits. Measuring 12 inches in overall length with a 5-inch usable cutting depth, this specialized rotary-only coring tool utilizes high-density carbide cutting teeth attached via a high-temperature brazing and hardening process to resist extreme thermal stress and severe rotational impact. Outfitted with high-volume debris evacuation flutes that rapidly eject metal shavings and pulverized concrete dust to keep the cutting head cool, it equips commercial concrete contractors, structural ironworkers, and MEP installers with smooth, fast steel penetration using standard corded or cordless SDS-Plus rotary hammers in rotation-only mode.

Best Used For:

• Structural Embedded Rebar Coring: Drilling through #4, #5, #6, and #7 embedded steel reinforcing rebar bars encountered inside poured concrete walls, bridge piers, and floor slabs.
• Post-Installed Mechanical and Chemical Anchor Holes: Clearing hidden steel rebar obstructions in pre-drilled 7/8-inch anchor holes for seismic tie-downs, baseplates, and threaded all-thread rods.
• Commercial MEP Pathway Penetration: Coring clean pass-throughs through reinforced precast concrete decks and masonry foundation footings when standard SDS hammer bits strike rebar.

Key Performance & Safety Features

• Precision 7/8-Inch Rebar Penetration: Specifically engineered to core through embedded steel rebar bars up to 7/8" in diameter without binding or jamming inside pilot holes.
• High-Temperature Carbide Teeth: Premium high-density carbide cutters withstand extreme thermal buildup and mechanical friction during prolonged steel cutting.
• Advanced Brazing and Hardening Process: Specialized metallurgical bond securely locks carbide tips to the alloy steel body to prevent tooth detachment under heavy torque.
• High-Efficiency Extraction Flutes: Optimized spiral flute geometry channels concrete dust and steel shavings away from the head to maintain cooler cutting temperatures.
• Extended 12-Inch Shank Reach: Provides 5 inches of usable cutting depth to reach deep rebar strikes embedded beneath thick structural concrete cover.
• SDS-Plus Rotary Mode Operation: Precision-machined SDS-Plus drive shank ensures positive torque transfer in cordless and corded rotary hammers operating in rotation-only mode.

Technical Specifications

Pro-Tip: Always switch your rotary hammer to rotary-only mode before engaging the rebar cutter, as hammer impact will shatter the carbide teeth; once the embedded steel bar is fully severed, switch back to your standard SDS-Plus masonry drill bit in hammer mode to finish drilling the hole into the concrete.
