The initial use was to drill hole thru brick veneer. Like a hot knife through butter. Worked well.

The Milwaukee 3/8×18″ carbide hammer drill bit is a durable and quality bit. It tackled brick and block with ease. Drilling a fast, clean hole with a cordless hammer drill. This drill bit is long enough to drill through a regular block. The drill bit did not bend or break when it was wobbled around the hole. The flat edges on the bottom of the bit create a positive lock in the drill. Made in the USA,

First…this is a three flat shank bit suitable for use in hammer drill with a three-jaw chuck, not directly in a SDS Plus or Max chuck. They do make three-jaw chucks with SDS shafts, which is how I used the bit to drill into concrete and concrete block effortlessly using two different hammer drills—a corded Milwaukee and a cordless Ryobi. Drilling into brick took much longer. The new bit drilled smoothly, and the point stayed in position as the holes started but the hole in the CMU drifted and created an oblong hole—probably due to the material and not the bit. The flutes are much wider than some other bits—see comparative photo—which allows the dust to flow out of the hole without binding. The ”1” X 10” X 12” (25.4 mm X 254 mm X 305 mm) designation refers to the diameter, the nominal length of 1-inch diameter portion and the overall length of the bit from end to end. The flutes end 9-inches (228 mm) from the tip. This allowed me to drill through an 8-inch CMU with no problem, and I believe that the bit could handle a 10-inch block. Drilling through solid concrete looks limited to the 9 to 10-inch range with proper clearing of the hole. The shaft of the bit is reduced to fit in a 3/8-inch chuck. After drilling test holes through an 8-inch CMU and a brick and then 21 holes through 4-inch old concrete, the bit showed little wear except for some of the red paint near the tip—see photo.The smooth, red powder-coated flutes are a nice touch, but I cannot tell if they add to the functionality of the bit. The flutes are easy to clean and the paint should resist rusting. Alas, the “Milwaukee” bit is made in China.

The Milwaukee 5/8 inch Carbide Hammer Drill Bit For Concrete, Stone, and Masonry Drilling is an excellent drill bit. It cuts as good as a 4 fluted concrete bit and it is only a 2 fluted bit. Having used both types of bits, this the best 2 fluted masonry bit my husband has ever used. We would recommend it to anybody for a valuable labor saving masonry bit.

I occasionally need a concrete masonry bit for various projects and wanted to have this Milwaukee hammer drill bit for the next project. This 1” carbide hammer drill bit can be used for concrete, bricks, and cinder type blocks. This bit bores a 1’ diameter hole and has an overall length of 6”, including the 4” cutting portion. It is sure-grip, with three flat sides on the shank, which prevents slippage of the bit. It is good quality.

Excellent product! Received my 5/8 in. X 16 in. X 18 in. Carbide Hammer Drill Bit for concrete,stone and masonry and was very pleased. This bit cut through my concrete wall like butter – it was quick and easy and did exactly what I wanted it to do. I am liking this so much, that I intend to purchase a full set of the other available sizes. I highly recommend this to all.

The 1 inch by 4 inch long shorty drill bit is mainly used for concrete but I had to use it for concrete blocks. I was installing a gas pipe for a BBQ grill and found the smaller hole wasn’t quite large enough for the new pipe. It is tough, sharp and powerful making easier work for large holes. I have also used it for concrete surrounding wood posts sunk in concrete. Great job for this tough little giant. Carbide will last a long time.

I picked this bit up for a tile project, to drill holes in cement board in the shower and bath. It is not a real demanding job for this tool which is professional grade. Using a standard drill, rather than the hammer drill it calls for, it punched a hole in 1/2 inch cement board in about a second. It should last a long time, it feels very heavy duty.

Milwaukee comes through again. At a great value point.There is a rectangular deck on the front of our house that is bordered on and, attached to faux stone covered stem walls. Aka “stucco stone”. There is a large decorative fountain outside the front wall.I was replacing the old deck due to dry rot. Since I had the old deck completely torn out, I decided to add an electrical outlet and a water connection on the face of the wall for the fountain. The fountain had been on an extension cord and I had to fill it with a hose since before we moved it. Adding these features meant drilling two holes from the backside of the faux stone. Not a particularly difficult task.But, I didn’t have any masonry bits the sized I needed to accomplish this. And, I really didn’t want to spend what I assumed to be $40 to $50 for a new bit for this single use. Then along came this Milwaukee offering at under $20. I’ve never gone wrong with Milwaukee so, I picked one up.I was able to effortlessly drill the holes I needed using my hammer drill and this bit. It drilled right through the light metal flashing without the point walking away. The whole is very clean through several layers of material. There are some future uses I can see applying this ½” bit to in upcoming projects after all. I’m glad I got it.To give you an idea of the capabilities of this bit, when I drilled or, attempted to drill, a hole on the back wall opposite from the face wall, so that a water pipe could pass through, I ended up drilling 6” or more into a solid concrete step on the outside of the back wall that I miscalculated the relative height of. The bit wasn’t coming through although it was buried up to the arbor before I realized I had drilled right into the side of those steps!

The Milwaukee 9/16 carbide hammer drill bit is a durable and quality bit. It tackled brick and block with ease. Drilling a fast, clean hole with a cordless hammer drill. This drill bit was drilling through block without the hammer function. The drill bit did not bend or break when it was wobbled around the hole. The flat edges on the bottom of the bit create a positive lock in the drill. Made in the USA,

My poured concrete block exterior wall was extremely difficult to drill. This bit went right through with little resistance. Best bit I own now.

Received product timely. It appears to be a great price for the item. Although the opportunity has not yet presented itself for me to use this particular drill bit – it won’t be long, I’m sure. Thanks.
