Drill Bit Smart SDS+ 5 mm for Concrete, model 20-0500160

SDS+ concrete drill bit Smart 5 mm (model 20-0500160) is designed for drilling precise 5 mm holes in concrete and masonry using SDS+ compatible rotary hammer drills. The carbide-tipped cutting head maintains diameter accuracy for anchor bolts, dowels and through-holes for electrical and plumbing installations. The SDS+ shank ensures secure retention in the hammer drill chuck and fast bit changes, making the bit suitable for repetitive drilling tasks in construction and renovation.

Advantages

The carbide tip delivers wear-resistant cutting performance and consistent hole size in reinforced concrete and normal masonry. The SDS+ shank guarantees reliable fixation and efficient power transfer from the rotary hammer, reducing slippage during heavy-duty use. The 5 mm diameter provides compatibility with standard anchors and fasteners used for light fixtures, sockets and conduit entries.

Suitable for

• Drilling holes for 5 mm anchor bolts and dowels in concrete
• Creating passage holes for electrical cables and small plumbing lines
• Installation work in renovation and construction requiring repeated precise holes
• Professional trades and DIY projects using SDS+ rotary hammer drills

Key specifications

• Drill tip material: carbide-tipped cutting head for concrete
• Shank type: SDS+ shank for rotary hammer compatibility
• Nominal diameter: 5 mm hole diameter
• Primary use: concrete and masonry drilling
• Typical applications: anchors, dowels, electrical and plumbing pass-throughs

How to use

Mount the SDS+ shank securely into a compatible rotary hammer drill. Mark the drilling point and set the drill to the hammer or rotary-hammer mode appropriate for concrete. Apply steady, moderate pressure and allow the carbide tip to cut without excessive force; withdraw periodically to clear dust from the hole and maintain drilling speed. For deeper holes, remove debris regularly to avoid overheating and bit binding. After drilling, clean the hole before inserting anchors or conduits.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment including safety glasses, hearing protection and dust mask when drilling concrete. Select drill speed and hammer settings according to the rotary hammer manufacturer’s guidelines and the hardness of the material. Replace the bit if excessive wear or damage to the carbide tip is observed to maintain hole accuracy and safe operation.
