Drill bit AWTools AW43760 — model AW43760, weight 1.8 kg

The AWTools AW43760 drill bit is a professional accessory designed for heavy-duty drilling in masonry and stone materials. Made of high-quality alloy steel with a tungsten carbide tip, this bit features a wide flute and a double-spiral design that helps evacuate debris efficiently and reduces heat buildup and vibration during use. The grooved SDS-MAX shank provides a secure connection with compatible hammer drills and rotary hammers, while the 130° self-centering point enables accurate starts without a separate pilot hole.

Advantages

This drill bit combines a robust alloy steel body with a tungsten carbide cutting head for extended edge life when drilling abrasive materials. The double-cutting-edge geometry and wide flute improve cutting efficiency and chip removal, reducing workload on the tool and lowering the risk of overheating. The grooved SDS-MAX shank ensures stable retention in the chuck and minimizes the chance of the bit slipping or falling out under hammering force. The self-centering point simplifies positioning and helps produce cleaner entry holes.

Suitable for

• Drilling holes in concrete and reinforced concrete
• Work on natural stone, granite and masonry
• Installing anchors and fixings in brick and blockwork
• Cutting openings in ceramic tiles during fitting and repair
• Use with hammer drills and rotary hammers for construction and renovation tasks

How to use

Fit the drill bit into the tool’s SDS-MAX chuck until it locks securely. Select appropriate rotation speed and hammer setting according to the drill manufacturer’s guidelines and the material being worked. Position the self-centering point at the intended drilling location and apply steady pressure while allowing the hammer action and cutting geometry to do the work. Withdraw the bit periodically to clear accumulated debris and prevent overheating. For best results when drilling deep holes, clear chips frequently and avoid excessive lateral force that could damage the tip.

Usage recommendations

Use personal protective equipment such as safety glasses, hearing protection and dust mask when drilling. Match the drill speed and hammer impact to the material hardness, and replace the bit when the carbide tip shows significant wear to maintain drilling accuracy and safety.
