Concrete SDS+ Drill Bit Verto 8 mm model 60H628

The Concrete SDS+ Drill Bit Verto 8 mm model 60H628 is a rotary-hammer-compatible drill bit engineered for drilling holes in concrete and masonry. It fits SDS+ chucks and is intended for tasks such as setting anchors, installing plugs, and creating through-holes where a reliable, straight bore is required. The 8 mm diameter provides a common hole size used in many fastening systems and construction applications.

Advantages

This SDS+ concrete drill bit combines a carbide-tipped head for effective material penetration with a flute profile designed to evacuate dust and debris during hammer drilling. The cylindrical shank conforms to SDS+ mounting standards to allow quick and secure bit changes in compatible rotary hammers. The 8 mm diameter offers a balance between drilling speed and the hole size commonly required for many anchors and dowels.

Suitable for

• Drilling holes in concrete, cement blocks and general masonry
• Preparing holes for plastic plugs, anchors and expansion fasteners
• Construction, renovation and installation work with SDS+ rotary hammers
• Tasks requiring an 8 mm hole diameter for fixtures and fittings

When it may not be suitable

This drill bit is designed specifically for rotary hammers with SDS+ chucks and for use in concrete or masonry. It is not suitable for use in standard drill chucks that do not accept SDS+ shanks or for drilling in soft materials where a twist drill would be more efficient. For deeply reinforced concrete or very large-diameter holes, a specialist core bit or larger-diameter SDS-max system may be more appropriate.

Key specifications

• Compatible chuck type: SDS+
• Diameter: 8 mm
• Intended materials: concrete and masonry
• Tip type: carbide-tipped head for hammer drilling
• Typical applications: anchor and plug holes, through-holes

How to use

Secure the drill bit in an SDS+ rotary hammer according to the tool manufacturer's instructions. Mark the drilling point, start at low speed to position the bit, then engage the hammer function and apply steady, moderate pressure to let the bit and hammer action do the cutting. Periodically withdraw the bit to clear dust from the hole for efficient drilling and to reduce wear. Use appropriate personal protective equipment such as safety glasses, ear protection and a dust mask when drilling.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm your rotary hammer accepts SDS+ shanks
• Ensure an 8 mm hole diameter matches the anchors or plugs you plan to use
• Check whether your task requires carbide-tipped bits or a different tip geometry for reinforced concrete

Usage recommendations

For clean, accurate holes in concrete, maintain steady pressure and clear the hole regularly. Match drill bit diameter to anchoring hardware and choose an SDS+ rotary hammer with appropriate impact energy for the material thickness.
