Drill bit Art-Pol SDS+ 8 mm, model 48258 for concrete

The Art-Pol SDS+ 8 mm drill bit (model 48258) is designed for hammer drilling into concrete and masonry. With an 8 mm diameter and SDS+ shank, this drill bit provides compatibility with SDS+ rotary hammer systems and is intended for creating holes for anchors, dowels and guide holes in structural and finishing work. The bit’s geometry and carbide tip are optimized to cut through hard substrates while maintaining hole roundness and alignment.

Advantages

The SDS+ shank ensures quick, secure mounting and efficient power transfer from the rotary hammer to the cutting tip. The carbide-tipped head improves wear resistance and maintains drilling performance in abrasive concrete and masonry. The 8 mm diameter is suitable for standard anchor and dowel sizes, allowing precise, repeatable holes. The bit is balanced for stable drilling and reduced walking at the start of the hole.

Suitable for

• Drilling anchor and dowel holes in concrete
• Creating guide holes for rebar and reinforcement work
• General masonry drilling in bricks, blocks and hard stone

Key specifications

• Drill type: SDS+ hammer drill bit
• Diameter: 8 mm
• Intended material: concrete and masonry
• Tip: carbide-tipped cutting head for increased durability
• Shank type: SDS+ for rotary hammer compatibility

How to use

Install the drill bit into the rotary hammer’s SDS+ chuck until it locks in place. Select a hammer-drilling mode and begin drilling with steady, moderate pressure; allow the tool to do the cutting rather than forcing the bit. Withdraw the bit periodically to clear dust from the hole if drilling deep cavities. Use water only if the tool and bit are rated for wet drilling; otherwise keep the bit dry and clean after use.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment, including eye protection, hearing protection and gloves. Match the drill diameter to the anchor or dowel specification for a correct fit. For improved bit life, avoid excessive side pressure and remove dust from holes to prevent overheating and premature wear.
