About This Product

Milwaukee(R) SDS-Plus Masonry Core Bits are ideal for drilling large holes in brick, block, and concrete with SDS-Plus rotary hammers. Asymmetrical carbide teeth break up material more effectively resulting in up to 20% faster drilling speeds. Centering bits allow for easy alignment of the hole and precise spot drilling. The versatile two-piece design allows users to drill with several different core bit sizes using one adapter. The spiral core body design minimizes friction in the hole and aids in dust removal during the application. Core bits cut with the outer edge only, therefore the operator must remove the inner core continue drilling for holes deeper than 3".

Highlights

  • Two-piece design for maximum versatility
  • Works with SDS Plus Masonry Core Bits
  • Threaded shank design for easy core bit removal
  • 13" overall length including centering bit
  • Requires Allen key for centering bit removal
  • Designed for SDS-Plus rotary hammers
  • Includes centering bit (48-20-3580)

    Hi, Maxx. The Milwaukee 4-3/8 in. Carbide SDS-PLUS Masonry Core Bit is designed to be used with SDS-Plus rotary hammers. This means it should be run on a hammer drill setting rather than a standard drill setting.

            am looking to drill a hole for the mounting post of a gazebo into pool decking concrete. Gazebo post brackets have 1/2 hole, I don't want to crack the pool decking.

            Answer This Question

            Drilling into pool decking concrete requires careful planning and execution to avoid cracks. Here's a step-by-step guide: 1. **Mark the Hole:** Accurately mark the center of the hole you need to drill. Double-check your measurements to ensure proper placement of the gazebo post. 2. **Choose the Right Drill and Bit:** Use a hammer drill with a carbide-tipped masonry bit specifically designed for concrete. For a 1/2" hole, select a bit slightly larger to accommodate the anchor bolt or fastener you'll be using. 3. **Pilot Hole:** Start by drilling a pilot hole. This small hole helps guide the larger bit and prevents it from wandering or chipping the concrete. 4. **Drilling the Main Hole:** Position the drill bit over the pilot hole and begin drilling. Apply firm, even pressure and let the drill do the work. Avoid pushing too hard, as this can cause the concrete to crack. If the bit binds, stop and back it out slightly to clear debris. 5. **Cooling and Dust Removal:** Concrete drilling generates heat and dust. Periodically stop drilling and spray water on the bit and hole to cool it down and reduce dust. A shop vacuum can also be used to remove dust and debris during the drilling process. 6. **Depth:** Drill to the required depth for your anchor bolt or fastener. It's crucial to not drill too deep, as this can weaken the concrete. 7. **Clean the Hole:** After drilling, thoroughly clean the hole of any dust and debris. Use a brush or compressed air to ensure a secure fit for the anchor.

              Guess I'm going to have to start paying attention to Milwaukee Reviews....
              I never even check reviews on Milwaukee, one of the very few brands I just naturally trust will be better than most but, I will be checking Milwaukee reviews now. Go with Bosch and save yourself time and money.

                Junk
                Bought it last week, used it for 15 minutes, 3 carbide teeth fell off, then the company said you shouldn’t use it to drill through foundations, apparently you’re supposed to use sds max, even though in 4 different FAQ they answered and said it is designed for drilling into concrete foundations. Do not buy Milwaukee bits or hand tools. They will fail the first day. Go with a reputable brand like Diablo, or Bosch. Milwaukee- do not leave a comment about I should reach out to you to fix this issue, I already tried, your customer service is always “sorry, it wasn’t designed for that, tough luck”

                    Failed on an old concrete foundation
                    I bought this to drill through a 6" thick concrete foundation for a dryer vent. I would say the bit got 1/2" in, and that's being generous. The material was apparently too hard for the bit.

                      This tool was a 2 part tool, I also purchased the 4" concrete bit. Hand and hand with my Dewalt hammer drill it sliced through brick, the Air space and the cmu. Perfect circle, like hot knife through butter. Very Impressive.

                      Was very pleased to find that these are made in Germany, as anyone in the trades that does any amount of masonry drilling knows is what you want in a carbide bit. I don't always carry my large corded SDS-Max rotary hammer with me in the truck, so these are great to keep in with my M18 Fuel cordless SDS-Plus that I do keep with me, for the times that I didn't realize ahead of time that I would be needing to make a larger hole in concrete. Saves me a trip back to the house. Note that these are sold as just the core bit itself, and you will need an SDS-Plus thin-wall core bit shank adapter, of which Milwaukee has available in several lengths.
