Drill Bit MEGA SDS+ 16 mm for Concrete, model 81616

MEGA SDS+ 16 mm drill bit model 81616 is designed specifically for drilling clean, accurate 16 mm diameter holes in concrete and masonry. The SDS+ shank provides fast, secure insertion into compatible rotary hammers and hammer drills, while the optimized flute geometry and wear-resistant cutting head deliver consistent performance when installing anchors, dowels or routing small conduits through reinforced concrete.

Advantages

The SDS+ connection ensures rapid tool changes and stable locking in rotary hammers, reducing play and improving drilling precision. A robust carbide tip and reinforced body improve wear resistance and extend service life under frequent use. The flute profile evacuates dust efficiently, maintaining drilling speed and reducing heat buildup during prolonged operation.

Suitable for

• Drilling 16 mm holes in concrete, masonry and reinforced concrete
• Preparing anchor and dowel points for mechanical fixing
• Routing small electrical conduits or pipes through walls
• Professional construction and on-site installation tasks
• DIY renovation and repair projects involving concrete substrates

Key specifications

• Drill diameter: 16 mm
• Shank type: SDS+
• Primary material: carbide-tipped cutting head
• Intended material: concrete and masonry, including reinforced concrete
• Typical applications: anchor holes, dowel installation, conduit routing

How to use

Install the MEGA SDS+ 16 mm drill bit into a compatible rotary hammer or SDS+ hammer drill until it locks securely. Mark the drilling location and, if necessary, use a center punch to prevent bit walking. Begin drilling at low to moderate speed to establish the hole, then apply steady pressure while allowing the hammer action to perform the cutting. Periodically withdraw the bit to clear dust from the hole for improved efficiency and to avoid overheating. For drilling reinforced concrete, use steady, controlled pressure and avoid excessive lateral force.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment such as safety glasses, hearing protection and dust mask. Select a rotary hammer with SDS+ compatibility and adequate power for concrete work. For clean anchor holes, check hole depth and clear debris before inserting anchors or dowels. Replace the bit when cutting performance decreases significantly or when the carbide tip shows visible wear.
