Did the job using a regular drill, but would have been much easier with an impact drill.

I really like these Milwaukee 5/32″ hammer drill bits. They are made from hard steel. Nice and long. In this series the hexagonal shanks are all the same size. They shaft locks into the chuck really well. No slipping. Sometimes bits this small are a bit fragile and will break pretty easily. I saw no evidence that this one would have that issue. It zipped right through a hard fired brick with just normal pressure. I will buy Shockwave when and if I wear these out.

Drills very fast and after drilling 8 holes no visible damage or wear to the bit.

This is my review of the Milwaukee 1/4 inch shockwave carbide hammer drill bits 48-20-9162 designed for use in impact and hammer drills. I just had the opportunity to try these bits while replacing some drain lines that had to be secured to concrete columns. I used the bits in a cordless hammer drill and they did the job. Drilling was fast and effortless, The bits did not walk when starting a hole. After installing over 25 straps (50) holes I was still using the same bit. I would recommend these. If I need other size bits for concrete I will buy this brand.

This 5 pack hard carbide drill bits from Milwaukee, in sizes of 5/32″, 3/16″, 1/4″. 5/16″ and 3/8″ is the perfect combination concrete carbide drill bits for all concrete / masonry use, including granite. The hardened steel bit is sharpened for easy starting into hard masonry use. Drills easily into brick, block and tested on harder granite material, where these bits didn’t wobble, and easily drilled a clean hole. The 1/4″ shank is a added convenient feature making this product easy to use.

Very good drill. It is precise and fast when you drilling a concrete.

this bit did the job! i had previously purchased three different brands of bits for concrete that burned on the first hole. 1 of these completed five holes.

Works much better than the tap-con brand ones. But, what do you expect? Its Milwaukee.

Used them on a brick exterior wall. They start working really great but wear down after 10-12 holes. Having the 5 pack was good. I would’ve hated going back for a second or third bit.

These 3/16″ Milwaukee Hammer Drill bits are great. I really like that the shanks are hexagonal. They locked very nicely into my 3 jaw chuck. I didn’t need to murder the chuck key to get it tight enough to not spin. I had some very hard fired bricks to try them on. This little bit zipped right into the brick with no issues. The bits are long enough to go totally through a brick like this. I experienced zero flex on the shaft while drilling. These smaller bits are sometimes a little fragile when side torque is applied. Not this one. It was great. I have a new favorite hammer drill bit.

Got 6 holes in hard a** concrete out of one bit so far. So far better than the Bosch I bought last time.

These bits worked great. Less susceptible to dulling out the tip than the internet no-named brands. Used them in my handheld impact drill for a quick job.

You can’t go wrong with a Milwaukee product. These bits are hex head bits that can be mounted in any chuck that that uses that head and even has a locking kerf. They are well made and fluted for quick material removal. They are carbide tipped for durability. It is a fast cutting bit. It is rated to drill several different hard materials. This model carbide hammer drill bit (48-20-9162) is six inches long.

These bits allowed be to drill into masonry as if it were pine. Super sharp and efficient. I didn’t feel like my motor was being over worked at all. When this pack is done I will definitely purchase some more.

Milwaukee carbide drill bits last and cut through the toughest materials. Concrete, block or brick will not stand in your way. You will drill quickly through it and install what you need in a breeze. The drill bit was tough to bend or break. The hexagon end gives the bit positive contact with your drill. This Milwaukee drill bit comes in a five pack.

Designed for impact or hammer drills, these drill bits are engineered to drill through concrete, block or brick. You will get 5x the life from these bits and their design makes them twice a fast as other bits (cuts your drill time in half). They are not recommended to be used in an impact driver for concrete. An impact driver can be used if you are drill brick or block. Great for high speed in a hammer drill for concrete, brick or block.These bits are 1/4″ by 4″ by 6″ and come 5 to a pack.
