Drill Bit Art-Pol SDS+ 12 mm AR48312 for Concrete

The Art-Pol SDS+ 12 mm AR48312 drill bit is a masonry bit designed for drilling into concrete. Made for use with SDS+ rotary hammer drills, this 12 mm diameter bit enables fast creation of holes for anchors, dowels and fixing elements in construction, installation and renovation work. The tool is intended to provide controlled penetration and maintain drilling accuracy when working with solid concrete and similar masonry materials.

Advantages

This SDS+ 12 mm drill bit offers compatibility with standard SDS+ rotary hammers, a consistent 12 mm hole diameter for common anchor and dowel sizes, and a carbide tip designed to withstand the abrasive nature of concrete. The bit’s shank geometry ensures secure fitting in the drill chuck, while the flute profile aids in efficient debris removal to reduce friction and maintain drilling speed. Designed for professional and DIY use where reliable concrete penetration is required.

Suitable for

• Drilling holes in concrete for anchors and dowels
• Installation of fixtures and fittings on masonry walls
• Construction and renovation tasks requiring precise anchor holes
• Electrical and plumbing installation where concrete penetration is needed

Key specifications

• Diameter: 12 mm
• Shank type: SDS+ compatible shank
• Material tip: carbide cutting tip for masonry
• Intended material: concrete and related masonry
• Typical use: rotary hammer drilling in percussion mode

How to use

Insert the SDS+ shank into the rotary hammer’s chuck until it locks. Select the rotary hammer’s percussion/drilling mode suitable for concrete. Mark the drilling position and, if needed, start with a shallow pilot hole to stabilize the bit. Apply steady pressure and allow the tool’s impact action to do the cutting; avoid excessive lateral force. Periodically withdraw the bit to clear dust from the hole, improving debris removal and cooling the cutting tip. After reaching the required depth, retract the bit and clean the hole before installing anchors or dowels.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment including eye protection, hearing protection and dust mask when drilling concrete. For prolonged drilling or larger diameters, consider intermittent operation to prevent overheating. Ensure the rotary hammer is set to SDS+ mode and matched to the bit diameter for safe and efficient performance.
