Drill Bit (SDS‑Max) Smart 280 mm — point tip, model 12-011

Smart SDS‑Max drill bit, 280 mm length, with a point tip designed to improve centring and penetration when drilling into concrete, masonry and other hard substrates. The 280 mm working length provides deep drilling capacity for construction and renovation tasks, while the SDS‑Max shank ensures secure retention and fast changes in compatible rotary hammers. This model is intended for rotary hammer use where stable axial guidance and consistent drilling speed are required.

Advantages

The point tip reduces wandering at the start of the hole and improves bite into dense materials, enabling more accurate hole positioning. The SDS‑Max shank offers reliable connection with rotary hammers designed for SDS‑Max tooling, delivering stable rotation and reduced slippage under load. The 280 mm length allows for deeper anchoring and through-holes in thicker elements without changing bits frequently.

Suitable for

• Drilling anchor and fixing holes in concrete and reinforced concrete
• Creating passage holes through masonry and brick walls
• Preparing boreholes for dowels, sleeves and chemical anchors
• Renovation tasks requiring deep or repeatable holes in hard substrates

Key specifications

• Overall length: 280 mm
• Shank type: SDS‑Max compatible
• Tip geometry: point tip for improved centring and penetration
• Intended materials: concrete, masonry and other hard substrates

How to use

Install the SDS‑Max shank into a rotary hammer with an SDS‑Max chuck according to the tool manufacturer's instructions and ensure the bit locks securely. Mark and, if necessary, centre-punch the drilling location. Use steady axial pressure and allow the rotary hammer's percussion action to advance the bit; avoid excessive lateral force to prolong bit life. For reinforced concrete, apply moderate pressure and withdraw occasionally to clear debris. Wear appropriate PPE including eye and hearing protection and a dust mask when drilling.

Usage recommendations

For best results, match drill diameter and length to the fixing system and follow anchor manufacturer guidelines. Begin drilling at low speed to establish the hole, then use normal operating speed and percussion mode suited to the material. Clear dust from the hole with compressed air or a brush before inserting anchors. Replace the bit when wear affects centring or cutting performance.
