The Milwaukee 1" X 10" X 12" Carbide Hammer Drill Bit is a quality product, just as one would expect from Milwaukee.
It is designed for use on concrete, cinder block and red brick, all at high speed. It claims to drill up to 2X faster and last up to 5X longer in concrete. I often have need to drill into structural concrete and have destroyed name-brand bits in just a couple of uses. My 3" test hole using this Milwaukee bit cut quick and cleanly while showing minimal wear on the tip. If it holds up I suspect I just might achieve the 5X longer claim.
End-to-end is 11 7/8" long, functional length is 9" tip to last of the spiral. The shank has 3 flat edges for the drill to grip better. Made in China.

I admit I was a bit skeptical that this percussion type drill bit would work twice as fast as other hammer drill bits I have used but after trying it I am now convinced that twice as fast might be an understatement but then again I'm comparing it to used drill bits that admittedly might be worn some.
For bits smaller than 1/2" I usually reach for my cordless drill but for larger ones I much prefer my big powerful corded Milwaukee for the torque and speed you simply can't get with cordless, at least not for very long. In any event I mostly use a 3/4" bit for running 1/2" PVC conduit through cement block or masonry for things like outdoor lighting.
These aren't cheap but that doesn't seem very important when time and effort are truly minimized.

I am so glad that they had these carbide hammer drill bit in stock,now i wont have to borrow my neighbors concrete drill bit .It will definitely come in handy when i have to fasten something to my concrete deck and i have alot of cement deck.my wife is very happy that I got this.She got mad when we lost our first canopy to straight winds and ended up on driveway.

Wow, this is one excellent carbide hammer drill bit from Milwaukee. Cuts through concrete, cinder block and brick like butter. It has a centering tip which helps keep the bit in place when you are starting your cut. The bit is 3/4 inches in diameter, the cutting portion of the bit is 10 inches long and has a 2 inch shank. The shank also has three flat sections which keep the bit tight in your chuck. It worked exceptionally well using my cordless hammer drill. I can only imagine what speed it will cut using a corded hammer drill.
all is good ----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Easily drilled into an older flagstone floor to set new anchor bolts in place. No issues with overheating (did use water of course). Didn't drill a ton of holes, but no issues whatsoever with getting through the material.

Outstanding bit
My hammer drill (Rigid) bit the dust but that's another story. Anyway, I used the bit on a strait drill, kept it wet and it ripped through the concrete.

The drill bit worked great in drilling holes into concrete. I drilled 8 holes in a matter of minutes.

Beats Bosch, hands down
Twice the cost of the equivalent Bosch bit, but requires less than half the effort. I wish I used this Milwaukee bit from the start of the job.
