Drill bit AWTools AW43755 – 1.6 kg weight, metal drilling accessory

AWTools AW43755 drill bit is a metalworking accessory designed for use with compatible drills and drill presses. With a total weight of 1.6 kg and a robust construction from high-quality alloy steel, this drill bit is fitted with a tungsten carbide tip and a wide flute to handle demanding drilling tasks. The 130° self-centering point enables accurate hole starting without a separate pilot hole, and the double spiral geometry promotes efficient material evacuation while reducing vibration and heat build-up. The grooved SDS-MAX shank secures the bit in the chuck to prevent accidental loss during operation.

Advantages

The combination of alloy steel body and tungsten carbide tip provides durability and sustained cutting performance on hard materials. The 130° self-centering point improves entry accuracy and reduces walking at the start of the hole. A double spiral flute design enhances debris removal and cooling, which reduces the risk of overheating and extends tool life. The SDS-MAX grooved shank ensures secure retention in compatible hammer drills and rotary hammers, minimizing play and improving user safety.

Suitable for

• Drilling holes in masonry and concrete
• Working with granite, natural stone and brick
• Cutting through ceramic tiles during installation or renovation
• Use with hammer drills and rotary hammers for construction and workshop tasks

Key specifications

• Material: high-quality alloy steel body with tungsten carbide tip
• Tip geometry: 130° self-centering point
• Flute design: double spiral wide flute for efficient debris evacuation
• Shank type: grooved SDS-MAX shank for secure retention
• Weight: 1.6 kg total
• Suitable for: hammer drills and rotary hammers

How to use

Install the drill bit into a compatible SDS-MAX chuck following the tool manufacturer’s instructions, ensuring it locks firmly in place. Select the appropriate drill mode (hammer action for masonry and stone, rotary-only where applicable) and set an appropriate rotational speed according to material hardness. Begin drilling with steady, even pressure, allowing the double spiral flutes to evacuate material. Periodically withdraw the bit to clear debris and reduce heat accumulation. For best results on tiles and delicate surfaces, start at low speed and avoid sudden lateral force to prevent chipping.

Usage recommendations

Use suitable personal protective equipment (safety glasses, gloves, ear protection and dust mask) and secure the workpiece before drilling. For extended drilling sessions, allow intermittent breaks to prevent overheating and inspect the carbide tip for wear; replace the bit when cutting efficiency noticeably declines.
