SDS+ drill bit MEGA 5 mm for concrete, model 80516

SDS+ drill bit MEGA 5 mm for concrete, model 80516 is a rotary masonry bit designed for drilling precise holes in concrete, brick and other hard building materials. The 5 mm diameter and SDS+ shank enable secure fitment in compatible rotary hammer drills, allowing efficient percussive drilling for anchors, dowels and fasteners during construction and installation work. The bit's tip geometry and hardened steel construction provide stable drilling performance and accurate hole sizing for light-to-medium anchoring tasks.

Advantages

The SDS+ shank ensures fast and secure bit changes and reliable torque transfer under hammering load. Hardened tip and body materials improve wear resistance when drilling abrasive masonry surfaces. The compact 5 mm diameter produces clean, accurately sized holes for small anchors and fasteners while keeping drilling effort and dust generation moderate. Compatibility with standard SDS+ rotary hammers makes this bit suitable for a wide range of common building tools.

Suitable for

• Drilling 5 mm holes in concrete and reinforced concrete for small anchors
• Preparing holes in brick or block for dowels and wall plugs
• Installation of light fixtures, cable clips and conduit fastenings
• General construction and renovation tasks requiring precise small-diameter holes

Key specifications

• Diameter: 5 mm
• Shank type: SDS+
• Intended material: concrete, brick, masonry
• Drill type: rotary hammer / masonry bit
• Typical use: percussive drilling for anchors and dowels

How to use

Fit the SDS+ shank into a compatible rotary hammer drill and ensure the tool is set to hammer-drill mode. Mark the drilling point and, when applicable, use a center punch to reduce bit wandering. Start drilling at low speed to seat the bit, then apply steady pressure and allow the hammer action to advance the hole; avoid excessive side-loads to prevent bit breakage. Withdraw the bit periodically to clear dust from the hole and maintain drilling efficiency. Use appropriate personal protective equipment, including eye and ear protection and a dust mask or extraction when drilling in confined spaces.

Usage recommendations

For best results in reinforced concrete, use progressive drilling pressure and clear debris frequently. Select a drill with sufficient impact energy for the material and avoid forcing the bit; replace the bit when tip wear causes oversized or wandering holes.
