Drill bit SDS-plus Bosch SDS-plus-5, length 115 mm

Bosch SDS-plus-5 drill bit, length 115 mm, is designed for rotary and hammer drills with SDS-plus chucks. The bit is intended for drilling into concrete, masonry and similar building materials encountered in construction, renovation and repair work. Its SDS-plus shank ensures secure engagement in compatible drill chucks and efficient power transfer during rotary-percussion operation.

Advantages

The drill bit combines a hardened carbide tip with a flute geometry optimized for fast removal of dust and debris, reducing heat build-up and maintaining drilling speed. Its SDS-plus shank provides quick, tool-free bit changes and a reliable hold during heavy-duty drilling cycles. The 115 mm working length gives a balance between reach and stiffness for common-through and partial-depth holes in masonry.

Suitable for

• Drilling holes for anchors and fasteners in concrete and hollow block
• Installing electrical boxes, conduits and plumbing penetrations in masonry walls
• General renovation and repair tasks requiring rotary-percussion drilling

Key specifications

• Shank type: SDS-plus
• Overall length: 115 mm
• Intended materials: concrete, masonry and similar building materials
• Tip material: carbide-tipped (hardened cutting edge)
• Flute design: optimized for dust removal during percussion drilling

How to use

Install the Bosch SDS-plus-5 drill bit into an SDS-plus compatible drill by aligning the shank and pushing until it locks. Select the rotary-percussion mode on the drill for masonry and concrete. Start drilling at low speed to create a guide indentation, then increase to steady pressure while keeping the drill perpendicular to the surface. Periodically withdraw the bit to clear dust and allow cooling when drilling deep holes. After completion, release the bit by pulling the chuck sleeve or following the drill manufacturer's release procedure.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment, including eye and hearing protection and a dust mask. Match drill speed and percussion settings to the material and hole diameter. For reinforced concrete, proceed cautiously and consider using a dedicated concrete or rebar-cutting bit when encountering steel.
