Drill SDS+ Irwin 9.0 x 100/160 mm - carbide tip, for concrete and masonry

Irwin SDS+ drill bit 9.0 x 100/160 mm is designed for use with SDS+ rotary hammers to drill holes in concrete, masonry and natural stone. The bit has a 9.0 mm diameter, a 100 mm working length and a 160 mm overall length. A carbide tip and optimized flute geometry deliver controlled dust removal and consistent penetration in common construction materials, making this bit suitable for installation, repair and fastening tasks that require precise, repeatable holes.

Advantages

The solid carbide tip extends cutting life and maintains sharpness when drilling abrasive substrates. SDS+ shank ensures secure, wobble-free retention in compatible rotary hammers and enables quick bit changes. The flute design assists in efficient dust extraction from the hole, reducing friction and improving drilling speed while maintaining hole accuracy.

Suitable for

• Drilling holes for anchors and wall plugs in concrete
• Creating openings in masonry for installations and pipework
• Making starter holes in stone and brick for mechanical fixings

Key specifications

• Diameter: 9.0 mm
• Working length: 100 mm
• Overall length: 160 mm
• Tip material: carbide
• Shank type: SDS+
• Designed use: concrete, masonry, stone

How to use

Fit the SDS+ shank into the compatible rotary hammer according to the tool manufacturer's instructions and secure it until it locks. Select hammer-drill mode for concrete or masonry and apply steady axial pressure while allowing the tool to perform cutting. Withdraw the bit periodically to clear debris and prevent overheating; if drilling deep holes, remove dust with a blow or vacuum between passes. After use, clean the flute and store the bit in a protective case to avoid damage to the carbide tip.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment including eye protection, dust mask and hearing protection. Match drill speed and pressure to material hardness—moderate pressure works best with a hammer action. Replace the bit if the carbide tip becomes visibly worn or if drilling performance declines.
