Drill Bit GEKO SDS+ 8 mm G60821 – SDS+ masonry drilling bit 8mm

GEKO SDS+ 8 mm G60821 is an SDS+ shank masonry drilling bit with an 8 mm diameter designed for drilling in concrete, brick and other masonry materials. It is intended for use with SDS+ compatible rotary hammers and hammer drills to perform percussion drilling for anchor holes, dowel installation and general construction fastening tasks.

Advantages

The GEKO SDS+ 8 mm bit features a carbide tip geometry suitable for efficient material removal and extended tip life when used in masonry. Its SDS+ shank ensures secure, play-free engagement with compatible hammer drill chucks, facilitating consistent blow transmission and reduced bit slipping. The 8 mm diameter offers a balance between hole size and drilling speed for common fastening and anchoring requirements.

Suitable for

• Drilling anchor holes in concrete for bolts and anchors
• Making dowel holes in brick and blockwork
• General percussion drilling in masonry during construction and renovation

Key specifications

• Shank type: SDS+
• Diameter: 8 mm
• Intended material: concrete, brick, masonry
• Drilling method: rotary hammer percussion drilling
• Tip material: carbide-tipped (carbide cutting head)

How to use

Install the GEKO SDS+ 8 mm bit into an SDS+ compatible rotary hammer or hammer drill by inserting the shank until it locks in place. Select the hammer drilling mode and position the bit perpendicular to the work surface. Start drilling at low speed to create a guide point, then apply steady pressure while allowing the tool’s percussion action to perform the cutting. Withdraw the bit periodically to clear dust and debris from the hole for more efficient progress and cleaner holes.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment such as safety glasses, ear protection and dust mask when drilling masonry. For best results, select drill depth and anchor size matching the fixing specifications. Avoid excessive lateral force on the bit to prevent premature wear; if drilling extensive volumes, allow the bit to cool periodically and use dust extraction where possible.
