Powered through 60-year old concrete to install transition strips.

Too much force has to be used for you to drill a hole, then the materials are ripped after hole is made

Cut thru ceramic tile quickly.

Like cutting butter is what this bit did to stucco. Save me a lot of time installing a security gate.

Having one bit that drills through so many different materials is great!! Wood, plastic, tile, concrete, metal, all are no problem with this bit!!

Did the job but didn’t last very long. Literally one day, about 15 holes.

I needed to drill 4 holes in brick to mount a flag support. I attached this bit to my Ryobi impact driver and drilled the 4 holes in less than 1 minute. This method was far superior to using a regular masonry bit on a drill.

Purchased this so I could mount a jbox to a cinderblock wall. I don’t have a hammer drill but with my M18 impact driver, this bit made easy work of the holes. Well worth it.

The drill bit worked wonderfully. Very little effort that i had to apply. Also the bit remained sharp after yhe job was complete.

Worked like a charm on thin metal track.

I actually used this bit to drill through hardened steel as nothing else seemed to be getting the job done. I will say, the hardened steel did destroy parts of the tip with each hole that was drilled. All said, I went through two of these bits, eventually completely destroying both drilling 11 holes through 1/8” hardened steel, with oil, slow speed, and lots of pressure. As I noted, no other bits were getting the job done. So, concrete bits might just be the answer if you ever find yourself in a similar tough spot.

Using it in a drill (no hammer function) with a little water and it’s going through tile great
Oma Heidenreich (verified owner) –
Yes. It was fine. No money left. Send food.

I bought this bit because the bits provided with concrete anchor sets seem to wear out too quickly. This bit has far out-performed those provided bits and it’s still sharp after two jobs.
Charley O’Conner (verified owner) –
It’s a great name and product, but like all tools… they wear out sooner if you force it. Let the tools do the work and you will have them for a very long time!

Bought it but had to switch over to a true hammer bit for a Hilti hammer drill to get the job done quickly. For a home over it fine, but for professional type jobs you need a true hammer drill and bits
