PEAK PERFORMANCE WITH TUNGSTEN-CARBIDE MASONRY & CONCRETE DRILL BITS

Drilling into concrete is one of the toughest tasks in construction – and when you encounter steel rebar, things get complicated quickly. Although a hammer drill is excellent for powering through tough concrete, it can come to a screeching halt if you don’t have the right type of concrete drill bit to go with it.

To drill through rebar effectively, you need two things: a hammer drill and a carbide-tipped drill bit. Drilling into rebar requires a drill bit that can resist wear and heat while maintaining speed. The best hammer drill bit for concrete is full carbide; it can keep up with the most powerful hammer drills and outperforms standard embedded carbide heads.

POWERFUL DRILLING WITH A FULL CARBIDE HEAD DRILL BIT

The Bosch Professional Accessories range features some of the best concrete drill bits with a full carbide head. These types of drill bits feature a single piece of shaped carbide at the tip. This serves to eliminate weak points, making these drill bits highly resistant to wear and temperature. The carbide tip also ensures for maximum transfer of impact energy. This means no loss of speed or drilling efficiency - no matter how tough the material.

LONG LIFETIME DRILLING

Tungsten-carbide masonry and concrete drill bits are the hardest wearing and most aggressive of all metal bits, capable of cutting through heavy-duty steel rebar over and over again. Almost indestructible, these drill bits offer a high level of robustness that directly translates to a longer product lifespan.

The higher quality tip also allows for greater speed when drilling. Withstanding temperatures of up to 1000°C, professionals can cut faster for longer with a full carbide head.
