Bosch SDS Plus-5X Hammer Drill Bit 13x200/260mm

The Bosch SDS Plus-5X hammer drill bit is a high-performance tool engineered for demanding drilling applications in concrete and masonry. With a diameter of 13mm and a working length of 200mm, this drill bit provides the stability and precision required for professional construction projects. The advanced 4-cutter head geometry is specifically designed to handle reinforced concrete, effectively preventing the bit from jamming or catching on steel rebar during operation.

Advantages

This drill bit stands out due to its exceptional durability and efficient material removal capabilities. The 4-cutter design ensures that dust is quickly transported away from the drill hole, which reduces heat buildup and extends the overall service life of the tool. Furthermore, the centering tip allows for accurate hole starting, ensuring that your drilling remains precise even when working on hard surfaces. The robust construction minimizes vibrations, providing a smoother drilling experience and reducing operator fatigue during extended use.

Suitable for

• Drilling into reinforced concrete
• Masonry and brickwork applications
• Professional construction and renovation projects
• Installing anchors and heavy-duty fixings

When it may not be suitable

This drill bit is not intended for use on wood, metal, or ceramic tiles, as the specialized carbide head is optimized specifically for mineral-based materials. It is also not suitable for use in standard drill chucks that do not support the SDS Plus system.

Key specifications

• Diameter: 13mm
• Working length: 200mm
• Total length: 260mm
• Shank type: SDS Plus
• Head design: 4-cutter carbide

How to use

To use the Bosch SDS Plus-5X hammer drill bit, insert the shank into the SDS Plus chuck of your rotary hammer drill until it clicks into place. Ensure the drill is set to hammer-drilling mode. Position the centering tip at the desired mark and apply steady, moderate pressure while maintaining a perpendicular angle to the surface. Allow the drill bit to do the work, and periodically retract the bit from the hole to clear out accumulated dust, especially when drilling deep holes.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your power tool is compatible with the SDS Plus shank system.
• Ensure the 13mm diameter matches the requirements of your anchors or fasteners.
• Check that the 200mm working length is sufficient for the depth of the holes you intend to drill.

Usage recommendations

Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment, including safety goggles and hearing protection, when operating a rotary hammer. Inspect the drill bit for signs of wear or damage before each use to ensure optimal performance and safety.
