Drill Bit Smart SDS+ 8 mm for Concrete, model 20-0800160

Smart SDS+ 8 mm concrete drill bit, model 20-0800160, is made for rotary-hammer drilling in concrete and masonry. The 8 mm diameter carbide-tipped flute is intended to provide reliable penetration for anchor holes, cable routings and installation tasks. The SDS+ shank ensures quick and secure fitting in compatible hammer drills, allowing rapid tool changes on professional and DIY jobs where durable concrete performance is required.

Advantages

The SDS+ 8 mm drill bit offers precise centring and stable rotation in masonry work, reducing walking on the surface before drilling starts. Carbide tip geometry improves wear resistance and maintains drilling speed in reinforced concrete and aggregate. The SDS+ connection delivers secure retention and fast insertion/removal without additional tools, simplifying repetitive drilling tasks. The 8 mm diameter balances hole size suitability for common anchors and cable conduits with high drilling efficiency.

Suitable for

• Drilling anchor holes in concrete and masonry
• Creating openings for cable routing and electrical installations
• General installation work that requires reliable 8 mm holes
• Use with SDS+ rotary-hammer drills on construction and renovation sites

Key specifications

• Shank type: SDS+ for compatible rotary-hammer drills
• Drill diameter: 8 mm
• Intended material: concrete, masonry, reinforced concrete
• Tip: carbide-tipped for improved wear resistance
• Primary use: rotary-hammer drilling (hammer mode)

How to use

Insert the SDS+ shank into the tool chuck until it locks, then set the rotary-hammer drill to hammer or rotary-hammer mode as required. Mark and centre the drilling point, start drilling at low speed to create a guide impression, then increase speed and apply steady pressure without forcing the bit. Periodically withdraw the bit to clear dust from the hole and allow cooling; when drilling reinforced concrete, use moderate pressure and steady feed to protect the carbide tip.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment such as safety glasses, gloves and hearing protection. Match the SDS+ 8 mm bit with a hammer drill that supports SDS+ shanks and select the hammer mode for efficient penetration; for clean holes, remove dust with a blower or brush before setting anchors or inserting cables.
