Hammer Drill Bit - Bosch EXPERT SDS plus-7X, 6 x 150 x 215 mm, 2608900073

Bosch EXPERT SDS plus-7X Hammer Drill Bit 6 x 150 x 215 mm, 2 608 900 073

The Bosch EXPERT SDS plus-7X 2 608 900 073 has a diameter of 6 mm, a working length of 150 mm and a total length of 215 mm. The shank is SDS plus, so it fits every rotary hammer with that chuck, whatever the make of the machine.

Full carbide head with four cutters

The head of the 7X range is made from a single piece of carbide - not two brazed plates, but one solid part - and it has four cutting edges instead of the usual two. That matters in reinforced concrete: a two-cutter bit jams when it hits rebar and eventually breaks, while the four edges of the solid head punch through the steel with no need to stop, re-target or change bits.

Service life

Bosch states up to 3x longer life than the Bosch SDS plus-3 drill bit. Two things are behind that: the carbide itself, made with Bosch Carbide Technology, and the special welding process that joins the head to the body - the point at which a hammer drill bit most often fails under load.

Flute and dust removal

The body carries a helical flute that clears dust out of the hole. Withdrawing the bit periodically on deep holes helps the flute do its job, and a cooler bit keeps its carbide edge longer.

Applications

Drilling reinforced concrete, concrete, natural stone and masonry - anchors, plugs, chemical anchors, suspended ceilings, electrical installations and plumbing runs. The bit is for hammer mode only; drilling concrete without percussion simply wears the carbide away to no purpose.
