Drill bit AWTools AW43745, model AW43745, weight 1.2 kg

AWTools AW43745 drill bit is a professional accessory designed for heavy-duty drilling in masonry, concrete, natural stone, granite, brick and ceramic tiles. Made of high-quality alloy steel with a tungsten carbide tip, this 1.2 kg drill bit features a wide flute and a double-spiral design to evacuate debris efficiently and reduce vibration during operation. The 130° self-centering point allows precise starts without a separate pilot hole, while the grooved SDS-MAX shank secures the bit in compatible hammer drills and rotary hammers.

Advantages

The tungsten carbide cutting tip and two-cutting-edge geometry deliver improved wear resistance and consistent cutting performance in abrasive materials. The double-spiral flute evacuates material quickly, helps prevent overheating and keeps the drilling line stable. The 130° self-centering point simplifies positioning and reduces walking at the start, and the SDS-MAX grooved shank ensures secure retention and fast fitting in compatible tools. The alloy steel body provides a balance of toughness and rigidity for reliable use in construction and renovation tasks.

Suitable for

• Drilling holes in concrete and reinforced concrete
• Creating openings in natural stone, granite and brick
• Installing anchors, dowels and fasteners in masonry
• Tile and ceramic drilling for plumbing and electrical fixtures
• Use with hammer drills and rotary hammers equipped with SDS-MAX chucks

How to use

Select a hammer drill or rotary hammer with an SDS-MAX chuck compatible with the AWTools AW43745 and fit the bit until it locks into place. Mark the drilling location and position the self-centering tip against the surface. Start drilling at low speed to ensure the point finds its position, then apply steady pressure and increase speed as appropriate for the material. Use periodic retraction to clear debris from deep holes and allow the bit to cool as needed. For reinforced concrete or very hard stone, use controlled operating intervals to avoid overheating of the carbide tip.

Использование и рекомендации

Use appropriate personal protective equipment (safety glasses, gloves, hearing protection) and secure the workpiece. Verify drill compatibility and follow the tool manufacturer's guidelines for speed and impact settings. For cleaner holes and longer bit life, remove dust frequently and avoid excessive lateral force; maintain moderate pressure and let the bit cut at its own rate.
