Suitable for

• Masonry and brickwork
• Concrete drilling
• Wood and timber applications
• Metal drilling
• Renovation and construction projects

When it may not be suitable

This drill bit is not intended for use in high-impact demolition tasks or for drilling into hardened steel or reinforced concrete with heavy rebar. It is also not compatible with standard three-jaw drill chucks without an appropriate adapter.

Key specifications

• Diameter: 12 mm
• Total length: 160 mm
• Shank type: SDS-plus
• Material: Carbide-tipped steel

How to use

Insert the drill bit into the SDS-plus chuck of your rotary hammer until it clicks into place. Ensure the tool is set to the appropriate mode for the material being drilled. Apply steady, moderate pressure and allow the carbide tips to do the work. For metal, use a lower speed setting to prevent overheating, and for masonry or concrete, ensure the hammer action is engaged if required by the specific material density.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your power tool is equipped with an SDS-plus compatible chuck.
• Ensure the 12mm diameter meets your specific hole size requirements.
• Check the material compatibility to ensure it aligns with your project needs.

Usage recommendations

Always wear appropriate eye and ear protection when operating power tools. Allow the drill bit to cool down after extended use in hard materials to preserve the integrity of the carbide tips.
