Drill Bit Smart SDS+ 16 mm for Concrete, model 17-16200

Smart SDS+ 16 mm for Concrete, model 17-16200 is a rotary-hammer drill bit designed for drilling 16 mm diameter holes in concrete and common masonry materials. The bit uses the standard SDS+ shank to fit hammers and chucks with SDS+ interfaces, providing secure engagement and allowing fast, tool-free bit changes. It is intended for both professional and DIY tasks where a reliable 16 mm hole in solid substrates is required.

Advantages

The drill bit is manufactured for compatibility with SDS+ rotary hammers, ensuring a snug fit and efficient power transfer during impact drilling. Its 16 mm diameter provides a consistent hole size for anchors, dowels, and through-holes, and the hardened tip and flute geometry are optimized for concrete and masonry to reduce wear and improve drilling speed. The standard shank design simplifies swapping bits and maintains stability under hammer action.

Suitable for

• Drilling 16 mm anchor holes in concrete and reinforced concrete
• Making holes for wall plugs and dowels in brick and block
• Preparation of mounting points for fixtures and brackets
• General masonry drilling tasks with SDS+ rotary hammers

Key specifications

• Diameter: 16 mm
• Shank type: SDS+ compatible
• Primary materials: designed for concrete and masonry
• Intended tool type: rotary hammer with SDS+ chuck

How to use

Insert the SDS+ shank into the rotary hammer chuck until it locks. Select appropriate drilling mode (hammer drilling) and set the drill to the correct rotation and impact settings for concrete. Mark the drilling point, start at low speed to create a guide crater, then apply steady pressure while allowing the hammer action to break material. Periodically withdraw the bit to clear dust from the hole and avoid overheating. Use recommended personal protective equipment such as safety glasses, hearing protection and a dust mask when drilling.

Usage recommendations

For best results when drilling in reinforced concrete, use short drilling intervals and withdraw the bit frequently to remove debris. Match the 16 mm hole to the correct anchor or plug size and use an appropriate depth stop if a precise hole depth is required. Check the rotary hammer manufacturer's guidelines for speed and impact settings to optimize bit life.
