I purchased the Bosch 11247 with a few hex-shanked chisels. I would like to get drill bits for it; do I need an adapter to use the SDS bits?

The hammer uses a spline bit. I have several and they work fine. I am not aware of an adapter.Here is a link:http://www.boschtools.com/Products/Tools/Pages/boschproductdetail.aspx?pid=11247#workswithDon

Yes, you will need a spline to SDS adapter. I have a Milwaukee but Bosch makes one also.

The shaft size is actually not relevant for these tools...ALL SDS Plus bits have the same size shaft for connecting to the tool. There are many different drill diameters for the SDS plus bits, but the part that connects into the tools are all the same size. Hope this clarifies the issue.

I believe no because I don't see where the description of the 11247 at the Bosh site mentions that it uses SDS-Plus bits.

I am quite sure they are interchangeable. This Bosch hammer has SDS-Max chuck. I recently purchased a Hilti point chisel and it was marked SDS-MAX and it fit fine.

No, standard bits do not work. Does not have a standard chuck. Only SDS bits fit.

No but since it is an SDS (most likely SDS+) drill there is no reason it will not work. I use mine in my Hilti TE15 for all non-hammerdrill applications. A high torque, low speed drill is very useful for a lot of things.Most accessory chucks like this are not designed to be used in hammerdrill mode and certainly not in chipping mode. This one is built pretty stout so it might do limitted duty in hammerdrill mode but the SDS+ connection is far better for that than smooth shank.

The tool has standard 1/4" drive so you'd have to use some type of adapter to use a drill bit. It doesn't have a chuck mechanism.

No. You will need to buy SDS-plus bits. Amazon recommends several different sets. I have been very happy with the Bosch bits.

Amazon has the adapter chuck and it works...i have one my self....Bosch HA3JAW 1/2 inch 3-jaw keyless Chuck with SDS plus Shank...the cost is 40 bucks..

Its a great drill but you'll need to buy the chuck adapter if you only have regular round drill bits.

No - This is an SDS-Max tool so it will only accept those type of bits. It does not have a standard drill chuck type of head. However, you can buy a separate ground rod driving bit to use in the tool. I have one and have used it with this tool several times and it works extremely well.

The bits are called SDS MAX. It refers ro the type of shank on the bit that fits into the drill.

That's correct - it is a fixed chuck size. It only accepts SDS+ bits (Bosch, Hilti, DeWalt all manufacture these and you can get them from Amazon and most home improvement stores). The SDS+ design uses a common shaft size, regardless of the gauge of the bit.

There are 4 types of masonry bits out there:1) - "simple" - round shank of various diameters - what you'd use in a regular drill chuck. OK for a few small holes2) splined bits - the "old" American standard. Think Hilti and similar brand tools.3) SDS, or SDS-Plus - the newer international standard - the default for what you'll find outside the US, and also now supported by American toolmakers. 4) SDS-Max - a heavier duty version of SDS - larger diameter shanks (typically over 1-1/8" dia hole size).If your tool says SDS - then option #3 should fit all brands. If SDS-Max - then you'll need option #4. There are 4 types of masonry bits out there:1) - "simple" - round shank of various diameters - what you'd use in a regular drill chuck.

SDS - PLUS and SDS - MAX are two different size chuck bits, the SDS PLUS ihas a smaller shaft, however AMAZON sells a chuck that will fit into a SDS MAX chuck so you can use SDS - PLUS bits.Here is the shortcut for the adapter: Bosch SDS-max Adapters Type: Connection SDS-max®/SDS-plus Female (part# HA1030)

I used it on hammr drill with 1/2" Chuck. It worked very well. It has hex shaped shaft and doesn't fit anything smaller than 1/2" chuck. When my happer drill broke, I used wrench adapter and smaller drill to make some holes on marble. That worked too. but hammer action would have been much faster. I don't own SDS drill, but I would think hex bit should fit as long as the chuck is big enough.

I have some SDS bits and they don't look anything like the jackhammer bit. So, I would think it's not going to work.
