Drill Bit Set Bosch CYL-5 2608588165

The Bosch CYL-5 Drill Bit Set 2608588165 contains carbide-reinforced masonry drill bits designed for drilling holes in concrete, natural and artificial stone. The bits combine Bosch's in-house carbide blend with diamond-ground cutting edges and a 2-flute vario design to reduce wear and improve dust removal. The Power Grip shank system ensures direct power transfer from impact drills with cylindrical shanks, providing precise holes and firm fixing retention. The set is intended for use with corded and cordless impact drills and is marked with the PGM Masonry Drill Bit Association quality test mark, confirming tight tolerances and reliable performance.

Advantages

The CYL-5 geometry delivers extra-long durability through a carbide blend and diamond-ground cutting edges that increase wear resistance. A 2-flute vario design with a short variable incline reduces friction on the flute and improves dust evacuation, which lowers wear. The Bosch Power Grip Shank System provides 100% power transfer from machine to bit to minimise power loss and reduce stress on the cutting edges. The PGM quality mark verifies consistent hole size and dependable fixing retention.

How to use

Secure the appropriate drill bit from the set in the chuck of a compatible corded or cordless impact drill with a cylindrical shank system. Use the drill in impact mode when penetrating concrete or masonry; apply steady pressure without forcing the bit. Periodically withdraw the bit to clear dust and allow cooling. Match the drill speed and feed to the material and bit diameter to maintain cutting-edge life.

Recommendations

For best results, select the correct bit size for the fixing, use impact mode for masonry, and ensure your drill supports cylindrical shanks with the Power Grip system. Regularly clear dust from the hole and avoid excessive side pressure to prolong bit life.
