1/2" x 18" SDS-Plus Hammer Bit

This carbide-tipped drill bit is built for rotary hammers with an SDS-Plus chuck. It targets professional contractors and serious DIY users who need to drill stone or concrete. The 18-inch overall length reaches deep holes in masonry walls or slabs. Premium auto-weld construction on German and Swiss equipment ensures consistent tip bonding.

Fits SDS-Plus rotary hammers directly

The SDS-Plus shank locks into the tool without a separate chuck key, freeing the user from key changes on site. Carbide cutting edges handle abrasive aggregate while the steel shank absorbs impact energy. No adapter is required for standard SDS-Plus machines. The bit clears dust through its flute geometry during drilling.

Carbide tip resists wear in abrasive aggregate

Heat generated in normal masonry drilling is dissipated through the steel body, keeping the tip sharp longer. The auto-weld process reduces the risk of tip separation under heavy percussion. Proposition 65 warnings apply to chemicals in the product. Standard personal protective equipment is recommended during use.
