    Carbide-Tipped Drill Bits for Masonry and Concrete

    Crush rather than cut material so bits don’t jam or overheat while drilling masonry and concrete. The ultra-hard carbide tip breaks masonry into pieces and the widely spaced flutes channel them out of the hole. These bits stay sharp, resisting wear and heat that will dull or break other bits.

    SDS-Max

    Shank

    The slotted shank is compatible with SDS-Max-drive rotary hammers. These bits use simultaneous rotary and hammering action to penetrate material. Also known as percussion or impact bits.

    Changeable-Size Carbide-Tipped Core Drill Bits for Masonry and Concrete

    Instead of investing in multiple bits, change the bit body to drill a different-sized hole. These hollow bits remove a large core of material from concrete, brick, and masonry for installing pipe and conduit. The carbide tip resists wear and heat to stay sharp. Bits include a pilot drill to make starting holes easier.

    Dust-Collecting Carbide-Tipped Drill Bits for Masonry and Concrete

    Connect these hollow bits to a vacuum system, and they'll suck up dust while drilling. Use them to meet OSHA standards for silica dust exposure when drilling in concrete, brick, and other powdery masonry material. These bits are especially useful for cutting holes for adhesive anchors—you don't need to clean out the hole before installing. They have a titanium nitride (TiN)-coated carbide tip that resists wear and heat to stay sharp.

    Carbide-Tipped Core Drill Bits for Masonry and Concrete

    Remove a core of material with these hollow bits to make larger holes than fluted masonry bits. They're often used for installing pipe and conduit through brick and concrete. The carbide tip resists wear and heat to stay sharp.

    Style E

    Use the rotary-only mode for general purpose drilling and driving fasteners (requires a chuck adapter or a magnetic bit holder). In rotary-percussion mode, the tool provides both a rotary drilling and hammering action. In the percussion-only mode, the tool provides only the hammering action. Use this mode when working with chisels and other masonry tools (see Chisels for Rotary Hammers). All have a variable speed motor—the further you depress the trigger, the faster the drill rotates.
    For SDS-Max Bit Shanks—A deeper drive system minimizes wobble for straighter, more accurate holes and better overall performance to other rotary hammers. A powerful and durable hammer mechanism lets you drill deeper, larger holes in masonry and concrete in less time than with hammer drills. Use with SDS-Max drill bits (see SDS-Max-Shank Masonry Drill Bits and SDS-Max-Shank Core Drill Bits). Note: SDS-Plus and SDS-Max bits are not interchangeable.
    12 Chisel Lock Positions—A chisel lock allows you to choose from 12 or 36 chisel positions to match the angle of many surfaces.
    Model Number RH1255VC—Model number RH1255VC provides smooth starts and won't slow down as you drill deeper.
    Built-In Safety Clutch—A built-in safety clutch protects you and the hammer if the bit gets stuck in your material.
