Drill Bit Smart SDS+ 8 mm for Concrete, model 17-08260

Smart SDS+ 8 mm concrete drill bit (model 17-08260) is designed for use with SDS+ rotary hammers to drill accurate holes in concrete, masonry and natural stone. The 8 mm diameter and SDS+ shank ensure a secure fit in compatible hammer drills, enabling stable transfer of hammering energy for efficient material removal. The bit is intended for tasks such as fixing anchors, dowels and through-holes during construction and renovation work.

Advantages

The SDS+ design provides quick, secure insertion and prevents slippage during drilling. The 8 mm cutting head is optimized for small-diameter anchor and dowel holes, offering consistent hole size and straightness. The bit's construction balances hardness and toughness to withstand repeated hammering in concrete without excessive wear. Compatibility with standard SDS+ rotary hammers makes it a convenient choice for professional and DIY applications.

Suitable for

• Drilling holes for anchors and dowels in concrete walls and floors
• Installing fixtures and brackets on masonry surfaces
• Creating starter holes for larger drilling or chiselling operations
• Renovation and repair work involving stone or concrete substrates

Key specifications

• Diameter: 8 mm
• Shank type: SDS+
• Intended materials: concrete, masonry, natural stone
• Tool compatibility: SDS+ rotary hammer drills
• Primary use: rotary hammer drilling (percussion + rotation)

How to use

Select an SDS+ rotary hammer compatible with an 8 mm bit and set the tool to the hammer-drill mode. Insert the bit fully into the SDS+ chuck until it clicks to ensure a secure connection. Mark the drilling point, start the drill at low speed to establish the hole, then apply steady pressure while allowing the hammer action and rotation to do the work. Withdraw periodically to clear dust from the hole for cleaner cuts and improved progress. Use appropriate personal protective equipment including eye protection, hearing protection and gloves.

Usage recommendations

For best results when installing anchors, drill to the recommended depth and clean the hole of dust before inserting the anchor. Avoid excessive side pressure and keep the drill aligned with the intended hole axis to maintain bit life and hole accuracy.
