I would like to drill a hole through my 8" concrete block wall to pass a
1/2" schedule 40 PVC pipe through from the outdoor to the inside courtyard area to continue the sprinkler branch. Problem is I have a 9/16" hammer drill, I don't have a mean heavy duty demolition hammer drill. I believe a 1/2" niminal PVC pipe has an outside diameter a little bigger than 3/4". Is there a masonry bit longer than 8" and wider than 3/4" that could be used for my hammer drill? Or do I need to rent a big one from the tool store just for one hole? If there is not one big enough, is there something else I can do to get around this - for example, using 1/2" CPVC - those are much skinnier and if I can just use that for the stretch through the block...don't know, probably not a good idea. Thanks, MC |
