Can anyone identify this SDS tool and where to buy it

[dnjr]

Dear all
Borrowed this tool on site today and want to buy one
It fits onto an SDS drill, set it on hammer and it cuts out for metal back boxes
It measures 75mm x 35mm.
I’ve searched everywhere I can think of but can’t find it
Anyone know ?

Hi teletrix. Don’t suppose you remember where you got it or what they called it ?

As others have said, it doesn't work on hard brick. I tried one for a while a few years back, but decided a selection of SDS chisels was much easier, stopped carrying it in my box of SDS bits, and I finally threw it out only a few weeks ago.

I can't seem to find anyone who has these, the only links I can find seem to be discontinued, e.g.:

I'm pretty sure I bought mine off eBay at the time, and certainly didn't pay that much for it.

Cheers for that. At least I’m not going mad. They do exist

Just to add you should have the extension lead fully unwound before using it.

much easier to stich drill and then use a sds scutch chisel. using this method, i do a double box cut-out in engineering brick in 10 minutes or less.

The correct term for that method of cutting teeth,is Scutch comb,so that would be a multi-row scutch comb.....

I'm guessing the goons in marketing,opted for something like "Box-Blaster",but i'm just a lowly engineer....

I read these threads yesterday... both for sds chisels for sinking boxes...
Then low and behold, today looking at a job where customer wants addition sockets in her living room.... all brick walls.
Looks like I’m going to need one too.

[Dave OCD]

The bloke you borrowed it off won't be too happy about that.

Especially if you use it on brick

I tried to call it that but the missus was not impressed.
