Diablo DMAPLRC1040 5/8″ x 12″ SDS-Plus Rebar Cutter

When you hit steel, switch to Diablo. The Diablo DMAPLRC1040 is a mission-critical tool designed specifically for one of the toughest jobsite challenges: rebar embedded in concrete. While standard hammer bits will dull or snap upon contact with steel, the DMAPLRC1040 uses advanced Cermet II Carbide to slice through rebar, allowing you to finish your hole without moving the anchor location.

Engineered for High-Stress Demolition:

• Cermet II Carbide Teeth: Offers superior heat resistance and hardness compared to standard carbide, providing up to 3X longer life when cutting through heavy-gauge steel.
• Tapered Core Design: The bit body tapers toward the shank to reduce friction and facilitate faster dust and chip evacuation, preventing the bit from binding in deep 12-inch holes.
• Rotary-Only Performance: Optimized for "drill only" mode. This allows the carbide teeth to grind through the steel efficiently rather than being shattered by the hammering action of a rotary hammer.
• Precision SDS-Plus Shank: Fits all SDS-Plus (TE-C) chucks. Designed to maintain a secure grip and transfer maximum torque from the tool to the cutting face.
• Heat-Treated Steel Body: Provides the rigidity necessary to maintain a straight path through reinforced slabs, ensuring your anchors seat perfectly.
