FAQs

Can I use this bit in a standard cordless drill?

No, this bit is specifically designed for SDS drill machines and will not fit a standard three-jaw chuck.

Is this bit suitable for drilling through tiles?

While it can drill through brick and stone, it is not recommended for ceramic or porcelain tiles as the hammer action may crack the surface.

What is the total length of this drill bit?

The total length of this specific bit is 160mm.

Does this bit require a special lubricant?

No, masonry drilling is performed dry. Using lubricants can cause dust to clump and clog the flute.

Can this be used for drilling into wood?

No, this bit is designed exclusively for masonry materials. It will not provide a clean hole in wood and may damage the material.

Troubleshooting

Bit is getting stuck in the hole

Ensure you are using the hammer setting on your drill and occasionally pull the bit back while rotating to clear out the masonry dust.

Drill bit is slipping in the chuck

Verify that the SDS shank is fully seated in the drill chuck and locked into position.

Excessive heat build-up during use

Apply less pressure to allow the carbide tip to work and ensure you are removing the bit frequently to evacuate dust.

Pros and Cons

Pros

High-grade carbide tip for long-lasting sharpness
Heat-treated steel resists deformation under stress
Secure SDS fitting prevents slippage in the drill
Effective debris removal due to specialized geometry

Cons

Not compatible with standard keyless or keyed drill chucks
Cannot be used for drilling through metal or wood
160mm length may be too long for some tight-clearance drilling tasks

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install, simply slide the shank into the SDS chuck of your drill until you hear a click. Ensure the drill is set to the appropriate percussion mode. Compatibility is limited to SDS-plus or standard SDS drilling machines; it will not fit drills without an SDS chuck system.

To prolong the life of your bit, avoid overheating. If drilling a deep hole, remove the bit periodically to clear out dust and allow it to cool. Always store the bit in a dry, rust-free environment. After use, inspect the carbide tip for chips or excessive wear; if the tip becomes blunt, it should be replaced to prevent excessive strain on the drill motor.
