Have you tried Hilti? My experience is that SDS bits that small are
quick to disintegrate, so I buy cheap and plentiful. Hilti will NOT
be cheap.

Thanks. Now all I need to do is find someplace to purchase it.

No one carries the Hilti locally. I just melted the tip of my 4th bit.
This carpet is getting expensive! I see Fastenal has their own brand. I
may try one today. I only need 3 more holes!

A selected few Home Depot stores have the Hilti line. Try chucking the
small 5/16 bit in a hammer drill instead.
