Bosch Concrete Drill Bit 5.5 x 85 mm Percussion

The Bosch concrete drill bit, measuring 5.5 mm in diameter and 85 mm in total length, is a professional-grade accessory designed for percussion drilling in masonry and concrete. This drill bit is engineered to withstand the high-impact forces generated by percussion drills, ensuring consistent performance and structural integrity during demanding drilling tasks. Its robust construction allows for precise hole creation, making it a reliable choice for both professional contractors and home improvement enthusiasts who require accuracy in hard building materials.

Advantages

This drill bit offers exceptional durability due to its high-quality material composition, which resists wear and heat buildup during extended use. The design ensures efficient debris removal from the hole, preventing clogging and allowing for faster, cleaner drilling results. Its precise geometry minimizes vibration and ensures that the drill bit maintains its path, resulting in accurate hole dimensions that are essential for secure anchor installations and other construction requirements.

Suitable for

• Drilling holes in concrete walls and floors
• Working with masonry and brickwork
• Professional construction and renovation projects
• Installation of wall anchors and fasteners

This drill bit may not be suitable for drilling into reinforced concrete containing thick steel rebar, as the bit is specifically designed for masonry and concrete materials. It is also not intended for use with high-speed rotary-only drills or for drilling into metal, wood, or ceramic tiles, as these materials require specialized drill bits to prevent damage to the tool or the workpiece.

Key specifications

• Diameter: 5.5 mm
• Total length: 85 mm
• Compatibility: Percussion drills
• Material application: Concrete and masonry

To use this drill bit, ensure it is securely tightened into the chuck of your percussion drill. Mark the desired drilling location clearly before starting. Begin drilling at a low speed to establish the hole position, then increase to the recommended operating speed while applying steady, moderate pressure. Avoid excessive force, which can cause the bit to overheat or break. Periodically retract the drill bit from the hole during operation to clear out accumulated dust and debris.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the required hole diameter for your specific anchors or fasteners
• Ensure your drill supports the percussion mode for optimal performance
• Check the compatibility of your drill chuck with the bit shank size

For the best results and to extend the lifespan of your drill bit, always allow the tool to do the work by applying consistent pressure rather than forcing it. If the bit becomes hot, stop drilling and allow it to cool down before continuing. Always wear appropriate safety gear, including eye protection and a dust mask, when drilling into concrete.
