Drill bit GRAPHITE SDS‑MAX 32 mm for concrete (57H540)

GRAPHITE SDS‑MAX 32 mm drill bit is designed for drilling through concrete and other masonry materials using SDS‑MAX rotary hammers. The 32 mm diameter and reinforced shank provide stable bit seating and reliable power transfer, enabling efficient removal of debris and consistent hole geometry for anchor and through holes. This bit is intended for professional and DIY construction tasks where precise, deep drilling in concrete is required.

Advantages

The SDS‑MAX design ensures secure coupling with compatible rotary hammers, reducing slippage during heavy-duty impact drilling. The cutting head and flute geometry are optimized to evacuate dust and chips quickly, which speeds up drilling and reduces overheating. Robust construction increases resistance to wear when working in aggregate concrete and masonry layers. The 32 mm diameter offers a balance between hole size for common anchors and the ability to maintain straight, accurate drilling in demanding conditions.

Suitable for

• Drilling anchor holes in concrete and reinforced concrete
• Creating through-holes in masonry for pipes and conduits
• Heavy-duty renovation and construction tasks requiring deep holes
• Professional trades and DIY projects with SDS‑MAX rotary hammers

Key specifications

• Shank type: SDS‑MAX compatible
• Nominal diameter: 32 mm
• Intended material: concrete and general masonry
• Drilling type: impact/rotary hammer drilling for through and anchor holes
• Flute design: optimized for dust and chip evacuation

How to use

Select an SDS‑MAX rotary hammer with an appropriate power rating for 32 mm drilling in concrete. Secure the drill bit in the tool according to the rotary hammer manufacturer’s instructions until it locks into the SDS‑MAX coupling. Mark the drilling point, start the hammer at low speed to position the bit, then apply steady pressure while engaging the hammer function for impact drilling. Periodically withdraw the bit to clear accumulated dust and chips for faster progress and to prevent jamming. After completing the hole, remove the bit carefully and inspect the tip for wear before subsequent use.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment (eye protection, hearing protection, dust mask) and, when possible, use dust extraction or wet drilling methods to reduce airborne concrete dust. Match the drill speed and applied pressure to the concrete hardness and monitor the bit condition; replace the bit if cutting performance declines or the tip shows significant wear.
