The icon is a little different to what I've seen on others and I don't know how to tell otherwise. I have a job that involves drilling through a breeze block wall about 20cm and I don't want the expense of buying an SDS if I can help it.

This drill was given to me a long time ago, hence not knowing what I have here.

Thanks!

For your project you need an actual hammer drill. This might work to plow an anchor into some mortar between bricks but I would get the right tool.

Rent it or check to see if you have a local tool library.

But buy a new bit. Fresh bit makes a huge difference.
