Drill bit DeWalt DT6673 SDS+ for concrete, 5 mm

The DeWalt DT6673 SDS+ 5 mm drill bit is engineered for drilling 5 mm diameter holes in concrete and masonry. Designed to fit SDS+ rotary hammers, this bit is intended for light to medium drilling tasks in solid substrates. It provides a compact solution for creating anchor and plug holes, and for passing small-diameter services through concrete surfaces while maintaining compatibility with common SDS+ hammer tools.

Advantages

The design ensures stable engagement with SDS+ chucks for consistent rotation and impact transfer during drilling. Its 5 mm diameter is suited to common fixing sizes, enabling precise holes for anchors and plugs. The bit is optimized for efficient removal of dust from the hole, reducing binding and facilitating faster progress in typical masonry and concrete materials. The specification focuses on straightforward, reliable performance for routine installation tasks.

Suitable for

• Drilling 5 mm holes in concrete, brick and other masonry
• Installing anchors and wall plugs for light fixtures or fittings
• Routing small-diameter services or conduits through solid substrates
• General light to medium duty construction and renovation work

Key specifications

• Shank type: SDS+ compatible shank for rotary hammers
• Drill diameter: 5 mm nominal cutting diameter
• Intended material: concrete, brick and similar masonry
• Typical use case: light to medium drilling tasks for anchors and plugs

How to use

Mount the SDS+ shank securely into the rotary hammer’s chuck according to the tool manufacturer’s instructions. Mark the drilling location and begin drilling at low speed to establish the starting point, then apply steady pressure and full hammer action to advance the bit through concrete or masonry. Periodically withdraw the bit to clear dust from the hole and reduce heat buildup. For deep holes, remove accumulated debris frequently to maintain drilling efficiency and prevent jamming.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment including eye protection, hearing protection and gloves. Select a rotary hammer with SDS+ compatibility and appropriate power for the task. For anchor installations, verify hole depth and diameter match the anchor manufacturer’s instructions and clean the hole of dust before inserting fixings.
