Drill Bit RAWLPLUG SDS+ 16 mm RT-SDSR-16/260

RAWLPLUG SDS+ 16 mm RT-SDSR-16/260 is a rotary hammer drill bit engineered for use with SDS+ chucks. With a 16 mm diameter and a length suited to general construction tasks, this bit is intended for drilling through and anchor holes in concrete, masonry and natural stone. The carbide tip and flute geometry are designed to remove material efficiently while maintaining stable bit guidance in impact drilling applications.

Advantages

The RAWLPLUG SDS+ 16 mm drill bit combines a robust carbide cutting head with a reinforced shank to withstand repeated hammering in hard substrates. Its flute profile evacuates dust and debris effectively, reducing binding and heat build-up during extended use. Compatibility with SDS+ rotary hammers ensures secure retention and quick changeovers, enabling consistent drilling performance on construction and installation sites.

Suitable for

• Drilling through holes for anchors and through-bolts in concrete
• Creating fixing points in masonry and brickwork
• Preparing holes in natural stone for installation tasks
• General rotary hammer drilling where SDS+ system is used

Key specifications

• Diameter: 16 mm
• Shank type: SDS+ compatible
• Intended materials: concrete, masonry, natural stone
• Application: through holes, anchor holes
• Cutting tip: carbide-tipped for improved wear resistance

How to use

Insert the RT-SDSR-16/260 into the SDS+ chuck of a compatible rotary hammer and secure according to the tool manufacturer's instructions. Use the appropriate hammering speed and feed pressure for concrete or masonry: moderate pressure with steady feed provides efficient material removal while avoiding excessive stress on the bit. Retract occasionally to clear dust from the hole and allow the flutes to evacuate debris. For anchor holes, verify hole diameter and depth against anchor specifications before installation.

Usage recommendations

Use personal protective equipment such as safety goggles, dust mask and hearing protection when drilling. Match drill diameter and depth to the anchor or fixings you intend to use. Avoid excessive side loads and bending; use the drill primarily for axial drilling to maximize bit life.
