Drill bit DeWalt DT8968-QZ, 210 mm length, pack of 10

DeWalt DT8968-QZ drill bit, 210 mm length, pack of 10, is a carbide-tipped masonry bit designed for repetitive drilling tasks in construction, renovation and workshop environments. Intended for use in compatible hammer or rotary drills, this 210 mm long bit provides the reach needed for anchor and plug holes in masonry, stone and concrete. Supplied as a set of ten identical bits, it suits jobs that require consistent hole size and depth across multiple fixing points.

Advantages

The four-flute helix design improves debris evacuation for faster drilling and cleaner hole walls. A solid piece carbide tip with four cutting faces reduces the risk of jamming when encountering rebar and maintains cutting performance over repeated use. The carbide tip and steel body are joined by a brazing technique to create a durable bond that withstands impact loads typical of hammer drilling in masonry.

Suitable for

• Drilling plug and anchor holes in masonry, concrete and all types of stone
• Preparing multiple identical fixing points in renovation and construction projects
• Workshop tasks requiring a supply of spare bits for repeated drilling

Key specifications

• Overall length: 210 mm
• Tip type: solid carbide tip with four cutting faces
• Flute design: 4-flute helix for enhanced debris removal
• Pack contents: 10 drill bits of identical size and length
• Application: masonry, concrete and natural stone drilling; suitable for hammer/rotary drilling

How to use

Choose a compatible drill and secure the DeWalt masonry bit in the chuck according to the drill manufacturer's instructions. Mark the drilling position, start at low speed to locate the point, then increase to the recommended hammering speed for masonry. Apply steady pressure without forcing the bit; allow the carbide tip and helix design to evacuate debris. Withdraw the bit occasionally to clear dust when drilling deep holes. Replace worn bits from the pack to maintain consistent hole quality.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment (eye protection, gloves, dust mask) and secure workpieces before drilling. Match drill speed and hammer action to the material: lower speeds for dense stone or reinforced concrete, and standard hammer action for common masonry. Store unused bits dry and avoid striking the carbide tip against hard surfaces to preserve tip integrity.
