Drill bit for concrete Irwin 10 mm cylindrical shank model 10501911

Irwin 10 mm concrete drill bit with a cylindrical shank, model 10501911, is designed for drilling precise holes in concrete, masonry and similar substrates. The 10 mm diameter and carbide tip provide durable cutting performance and resistance to wear when used with rotary and hammer drills that accept cylindrical shanks. This bit is intended for creating anchor holes, through-holes and dowel installations in walls, floors and structural elements.

Advantages

The carbide tip maintains sharpness for longer life and improves drilling speed in hard materials such as concrete and brick. The straight cylindrical shank fits standard chucks and offers stable rotation without the need for special adapters. The bit is manufactured to Irwin quality standards to ensure consistent diameter and straightness for accurate hole placement.

Suitable for

• Drilling holes for anchors and dowels in concrete and masonry
• Creating through-holes for pipes and conduits in block and brick
• General repair and installation tasks on construction sites and at home

Key specifications

• Diameter: 10 mm
• Tip material: carbide
• Shank type: cylindrical (straight) shank compatible with standard chucks
• Primary use: concrete, masonry and similar hard substrates
• Typical compatible tools: rotary drills and hammer drills that accept cylindrical shanks

How to use

Choose a drill with a chuck that securely accepts a cylindrical shank and select an appropriate speed and hammer mode if available. Mark the drilling point and start at low speed to establish a guide, then increase speed and use steady, moderate pressure. For deeper holes, periodically withdraw the bit to clear dust and reduce heat buildup. Observe standard safety precautions: wear eye protection, hearing protection, and a dust mask when drilling into concrete and masonry.

Usage recommendations

For best results when installing anchors, drill to the recommended depth for the anchor type and clean the hole thoroughly before inserting fixings. Use water sparingly only if compatible with the drill and the substrate; excessive coolant can cause slippage in certain chucks. Replace the bit when wear affects drilling performance or hole accuracy.
