Drill Bit Bosch 2 608 596 118 Length 460 mm

The Bosch 2 608 596 118 drill bit, length 460 mm, is engineered for precise rotary-hammer drilling in demanding building materials. With a 14 mm diameter and an extended total length of 460 mm (working length 400 mm), this SDS-plus shank bit enables deep, accurate holes in masonry, concrete and reinforced concrete. The design balances rigidity and chip evacuation to maintain drilling performance over prolonged use and to deliver consistent hole quality for professional and DIY applications.

Advantages

This drill bit offers a long working reach and stable centring for straight, clean holes. The SDS-plus shank ensures quick, secure coupling with compatible rotary hammers while allowing efficient power transfer. Optimised flute geometry facilitates chip removal and reduces friction, contributing to longer tool life and consistent drilling speed in hard materials. The 14 mm diameter size provides a reliable balance between bore size and material removal rate.

Suitable for

• Drilling holes in masonry and concrete for anchors and through-fixings
• Creating deep holes in reinforced concrete for dowels and fixing bolts
• Use with SDS-plus rotary hammers for construction and renovation tasks

Key specifications

• Diameter: 14 mm
• Working length: 400 mm
• Total length: 460 mm
• Shank type: SDS-plus
• Material compatibility: masonry, concrete, reinforced concrete

How to use

Install the bit into an SDS-plus rotary hammer according to the tool manufacturer's instructions, ensuring the shank is fully engaged and locked. Select appropriate hammer or rotation mode for concrete work and mark the drilling position. Start at low speed to establish the hole, then apply steady pressure while maintaining the tool perpendicular to the work surface. Periodically withdraw the bit to clear dust and chips, especially when drilling deep holes, to maintain cutting efficiency and prevent jamming.

Usage recommendations

Wear appropriate personal protective equipment including eye and hearing protection and a dust mask when drilling. Use lubricant or cooling only if recommended for the specific material; for standard masonry and concrete, intermittent drilling and chip clearing are typically sufficient. Match drill diameter and depth to the fixing system manufacturer's requirements for anchors or bolts, and inspect the bit for wear before use to ensure safe, effective operation.
