Bosch Hammer drill bit SDS Plus-5

The Bosch SDS Plus-5 hammer drill bit (model 1618596177, Ø 10 mm) is designed for use with rotary hammers that accept SDS-plus holders. Made in Germany and PGM-certified, the bit is intended for precise drilling and reliable anchoring in masonry and similar materials. A visible wear mark shows whether the drilled hole diameter is still within tolerance for metal anchor setting.

Advantages

The Activeteq centring tip guides drilling starts to prevent jarring and wandering. AWB brazing and hardening technology reduces vibration and user strain while improving tool life. The wear mark provides an immediate visual check of hole diameter, and PGM certification confirms compliance with tight tolerances and consistent drilling performance.

How to use

Fit the 10 mm Bosch SDS Plus-5 bit into an SDS-plus rotary hammer according to the tool manufacturer's instructions. Use the Activeteq centring tip to position the bit and start drilling at low speed until the tip has established the hole, then continue at the appropriate hammer/drill setting for the material. Monitor the wear mark to ensure the hole diameter remains within tolerance for metal anchor installation.

Recommendations

Use personal protective equipment (eye and ear protection, dust mask) and select the correct hammer setting for masonry. Replace the bit when the wear mark indicates the diameter is out of tolerance or when cutting performance diminishes.
