Makita D-00527 SDS-Plus Hammer Drill Bit 8 x 100 / 160mm

8 mm diameter, 160 mm length, SDS-Plus shank for quick tool changes, carbide tip for durability, optimized drilling speed, high-quality steel body for wear resistance, precise cutting edges for clean holes, and reduced vibration for better control.

The SDS-Plus shank securely locks into compatible hammer drills, enables faster bit changes, and minimizes slippage, which translates to more consistent drilling and better power transfer during tough masonry tasks.

It's optimized for concrete, masonry, brick, and similar hard surfaces. The carbide tip and precision edges improve longevity and produce cleaner holes, even in tough substrates.

Use with an SDS-Plus hammer drill, set to the appropriate hammer action, and apply steady, moderate pressure. Let the bit cut and cool as needed; avoid forcing it, which helps prevent bit wear and breakout.

Wear eye protection and gloves, keep hands clear of the rotating bit, and ensure the workpiece is secure. Allow the bit to cool during breaks and avoid overheating; use proper dust collection if possible.

Ensure your drill is compatible with SDS-Plus bits, inspect the bit for any signs of wear or damage, and confirm the drill’s speed and hammer settings match your material and hole depth requirements.
