Drill bit FORTE 26767SENU for reinforced concrete, SDS-PL shank

FORTE 26767SENU drill bit is designed for impact drilling in reinforced concrete. It has an SDS-PL shank compatible with rotary hammer tools that accept this connection type and a tip geometry optimized to penetrate concrete with embedded rebar. The bit is intended for professional and renovation tasks where reliable drilling through concrete and occasional contact with reinforcement is expected; it is suitable for making anchor holes and through-holes in structural and non-structural concrete elements.

Advantages

The SDS-PL shank provides secure retention in compatible rotary hammers and enables quick tool changes. The cutting geometry and carbide tip are engineered to maintain drilling performance when encountering aggregate and reinforcement, reducing the risk of jamming. The bit’s construction balances toughness and wear resistance for a consistent drilling rate in reinforced concrete environments.

Suitable for

• Drilling anchor holes in reinforced concrete
• Creating through-holes for anchors, sleeves, and conduits
• Renovation and structural retrofit works that require impact drilling
• Professional construction tasks involving concrete with rebar

Key specifications

• SDS-PL shank for rotary hammer retention
• Tip geometry optimized for reinforced concrete
• Carbide cutting head for improved wear resistance
• Designed for rotary hammer impact drilling mode

How to use

Select a rotary hammer that accepts SDS-PL shanks and set it to the impact drilling mode. Mark the drilling position and, if necessary, start with a pilot position using a smaller diameter bit. Secure the workpiece and hold the tool perpendicular to the surface. Apply steady axial pressure while allowing the tool to do the work; avoid excessive side load. If the bit contacts rebar, maintain steady pressure and allow the carbide tip to penetrate rather than forcing the bit. Periodically withdraw the bit to clear dust and debris for efficient cutting and cooling.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment (eye protection, hearing protection, dust mask) and, when drilling overhead or producing significant dust, employ dust extraction or water suppression as required. Replace the bit if excessive wear or tip damage is observed to maintain drilling accuracy and safety.
