Does anyone know if such a thing is available?
I'm after an adaptor to fit an SDS+ drill chuck that will accept an SDS
Max bit.


Can't say I have ever seen one that converts that way around.

The other way round is widely available.
Otherwise I'll machine the shank down and use it in a hammer drill.


SDS bits don't tend to cut that well without the high energy SDS style
hammer action.

Is it a particularly exotic bit?

That
seems rather a shame though.


Or a justification for a SDS max drill ;-)


Thanks,
nothing exotic. Bog std 22mm bit that I want to use to open out some
existing 16mm holes. I bought SDS max in error but it was cheap enough.
I don't think I want or need an SDS max drill. Have got by for 60yrs
without one.
