SDS Plus Masonry Drill Bit 5mm x 160mm 244650 – Key FAQs

  • What is a 5mm SDS Plus masonry drill bit used for?
    It’s typically used for drilling fixing holes for wall plugs and light-duty fixings in concrete, masonry and blockwork where accuracy and a clean hole are important.

  • Will the Silverline 244650 drill bit fit any SDS Plus drill?
    Yes. The SDS Plus shank is designed to lock into SDS Plus chucks for secure fitting, efficient hammer action and quick bit changes.

  • Can I drill concrete with this 5mm masonry bit?
    Yes. The tungsten carbide tip is designed for drilling into concrete and other abrasive mineral materials, helping maintain cutting performance during repeated use.

  • How does the double-flute design improve drilling?
    Double flutes move dust and spoil out of the hole more effectively, reducing binding and heat build-up and helping you maintain smoother drilling progress.

  • Can I use this bit in a standard chuck drill?
    No. SDS Plus bits require an SDS Plus chuck. A standard 3-jaw chuck won’t accept the shank properly and won’t provide the correct hammer drilling action.

  • How can I help the bit last longer and drill cleaner holes?
    Use steady pressure without forcing, and withdraw the bit occasionally to clear dust. This improves efficiency and helps reduce heat and wear on the tip.
