Drill Bit SDS plus EINHELL 8x160 mm, 8 mm diameter, 160 mm length

EINHELL SDS plus drill bit 8x160 mm is designed for percussion drilling with SDS-plus rotary hammers. The bit has an 8 mm working diameter and a total length of 160 mm, intended for drilling into concrete, masonry and similar mineral materials. The SDS-plus shank provides secure coupling and quick, tool-free replacement in compatible rotary hammers, maintaining correct alignment during heavy-duty impact drilling.

Advantages

The solid carbide tip and fluted body deliver efficient material removal and consistent drilling performance in concrete and masonry. The SDS-plus shank ensures reliable retention in the chuck and fast bit changes. The 160 mm overall length gives sufficient reach for medium-depth holes while the 8 mm diameter fits standard anchors and dowels. The design balances durability with straightforward use for both professional trades and home improvement projects.

Suitable for

• Drilling holes for anchors and dowels in concrete and brick
• Creating through-holes or depth-limited holes in masonry
• Installation work requiring repeated percussion drilling with an SDS-plus rotary hammer
• General construction and renovation tasks involving mineral substrates

Key specifications

• Type: SDS-plus percussion drill bit
• Working diameter: 8 mm
• Total length: 160 mm
• Intended materials: concrete, masonry and similar mineral substrates
• Shank: SDS-plus compatible shank for rotary hammers
• Tip: carbide-tipped for improved wear resistance and cutting

How to use

Install the bit into the SDS-plus chuck of a compatible rotary hammer until it locks in place according to the tool manufacturer's instructions. Select the hammer or hammer-drill mode suitable for concrete or masonry, set the required drilling depth, and apply steady axial pressure while keeping the tool aligned with the intended hole. Withdraw the bit periodically to clear dust from the hole and avoid overheating. Replace the bit if the tip becomes worn or the drilling performance decreases.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment including eye protection, hearing protection and dust mask when drilling. For reinforced concrete, check reinforcement position before drilling. Match the drill diameter to anchor and plug specifications and use a vacuum or compressed-air clearing method for efficient dust removal in confined spaces.
