The Irwin SDS+ 8 mm drill bit IW2039414 is a masonry bit designed for drilling precise holes in concrete, brick and similar substrates. Built for use with SDS+ rotary hammers, this 8 mm diameter bit is intended for creating fixing points for anchors, plugs and light fixtures. The bit’s geometry and flute design help remove dust efficiently while maintaining hole accuracy in demanding masonry materials.

Advantages

This Irwin SDS+ 8 mm masonry bit offers consistent drilling performance with a balance of wear resistance and rigidity suited to repeated use in concrete. Its SDS+ shank provides secure engagement with compatible rotary hammers, reducing slippage and improving energy transfer. The flute profile supports effective evacuation of debris to maintain bit cutting efficiency and hole cleanliness.

Suitable for

• Drilling holes for wall plugs and anchors in concrete and brick
• Installing light fixtures, shelving brackets and cable clips
• Professional construction and renovation tasks requiring repeated masonry drilling
• DIY projects involving attachment to masonry substrates

Key specifications

• Diameter: 8 mm
• Shank type: SDS+ compatible
• Intended material: concrete, brick and similar masonry
• Typical use: rotary hammer drilling with hammer action

How to use

Secure the appropriate protective equipment such as safety glasses and hearing protection before starting. Insert the SDS+ shank into a compatible rotary hammer until it locks. Mark the drilling position on the work surface and start drilling at low speed to establish a guide point, then apply steady pressure and use the hammer function for progress through concrete. Periodically withdraw the bit to clear accumulated dust and prevent overheating. Match drill diameter and depth to the anchor or plug specifications to ensure proper fit.

Usage recommendations

For best results, use with an SDS+ rotary hammer rated for masonry work and select anchors and plugs sized for an 8 mm hole. Avoid excessive side pressure that can cause bit breakage; allow the tool’s hammer action to perform the work. Replace the bit when wear or loss of cutting effectiveness is apparent to maintain hole accuracy.
