Drill bit Verto concrete cylindrical 8 mm 60H176

The Verto concrete cylindrical drill bit 8 mm (model 60H176) is designed for drilling into concrete and masonry. With an 8 mm cutting diameter and a cylindrical shank, this drill bit provides stable clamping in standard drill chucks and is suitable for creating holes for anchors, dowels and through-holes. The geometry and carbide tip are matched to rotary and hammer drilling modes to deliver consistent penetration in reinforced or unreinforced concrete and common masonry materials.

Advantages

The cylindrical shank ensures secure, slip-free mounting in a wide range of drills while the 8 mm diameter meets common anchoring and fixing requirements. The tip and flute design improve chip removal and reduce binding during rotary or light hammering action. The bit is balanced for straight drilling and maintains cutting performance over repeated use in construction and repair tasks.

Suitable for

• Drilling anchor and dowel holes in concrete and brick
• Preparation of through-holes for installation of fixtures
• General light-to-medium trade and maintenance work on masonry

Key specifications

• Cutting diameter: 8 mm
• Shank type: cylindrical
• Intended materials: concrete, masonry
• Compatible drill types: rotary drills, hammer drills (light-duty hammer mode)
• Typical applications: anchoring, doweling, through-holes

How to use

Secure the drill bit in the drill chuck so the cylindrical shank is fully seated and tightened to prevent slippage. Select an appropriate rotational speed and, if available, the hammer function for harder concrete; for thin masonry or finished surfaces use rotary mode only. Position the bit at the desired location, apply steady axial pressure, and allow the tool to advance at a controlled rate. Withdraw periodically to clear dust and chips, especially in deep holes, then continue until the required depth is reached. After use, clean the flutes and store the bit in a dry place to minimize corrosion.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment—safety glasses, dust mask and hearing protection—when drilling concrete or masonry. Match drill speed and hammer settings to the substrate to prolong bit life. For repeated heavy-duty hammer drilling or large-diameter holes, consider using specialized SDS-plus or masonry bits designed for high-impact applications.
