Rebar Cutting Drills are for drilling straight through rebar embedded in concrete without relocating holes. Rebar steel can be an obstacle to the standard hammer drill bit to drill through. Before specific rebar bits, it was common for people to drill another hole to avoid rebar when encountered. Leaving multiple unnecessary holes in the concrete. These products are available to buy from Swiftfix in the brands Relton and Heller, in-store and online.
