SDS MAX to SDS PLUS Adapter GEKO G00576 for 50/56 mm shank conversions

The GEKO G00576 SDS MAX to SDS PLUS Adapter allows SDS MAX tool holders to accept SDS PLUS bits, enabling compatibility between two common rotary hammer standards. Designed for 50/56 mm shank conversions, this adapter is intended to expand the range of drill bits and accessories usable with SDS MAX chucks, simplifying jobsite logistics and reducing the need for multiple tools.

Advantages

This adapter provides a stable mechanical connection between SDS MAX spindles and SDS PLUS bits while preserving tool balance and transmission of impact energy. It supports quick bit changes and helps avoid interruptions caused by incompatible shank sizes. The design focuses on reliable engagement and wear resistance to endure typical construction and renovation workloads.

Suitable for

• Converting SDS MAX rotary hammers to accept SDS PLUS drill bits and chisels
• Renovation and repair tasks requiring a wider range of accessory options
• Sites where tool standard compatibility reduces equipment variety

Key specifications

• Compatibility: converts SDS MAX tool holder to accept SDS PLUS accessories
• Suitable shank sizes: for 50 mm and 56 mm shank configurations
• Intended use: rotary hammers and demolition drills with SDS MAX chucks
• Material focus: engineered for wear resistance and reliable engagement under impact load

How to use

Insert the adapter into the SDS MAX chuck according to the rotary hammer manufacturer’s guidance, ensuring it seats fully and locks into the tool holder. Then insert the SDS PLUS bit into the adapter until it engages. Verify the adapter and bit are properly secured before applying impact or rotational force. Follow the host tool’s operational instructions for speed and impact settings to suit the selected bit and material.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment and select drill bit types and diameters that match the material and task. Periodically inspect the adapter and bits for wear or damage and replace if engagement becomes loose or if visible deformation appears.
