- Masonry
- Concrete
- Brick
The right consumable for concrete: carbide full-head tips plus an SDS-plus shank turn a rotary hammer into an anchor-hole machine, with the durability to shrug off rebar.
Pros
- Full-head carbide tip survives rebar strikes that chip standard 2-cutter masonry bits
- SDS-plus shank locks into a rotary hammer for hammering force no keyless chuck can match
- Variable flute clears dust aggressively, cutting faster and reducing bit-jamming heat
Cons
- Requires an SDS-plus rotary hammer - these will not fit a standard keyed/keyless drill chuck
- Overkill (and awkward) for soft brick or a single small anchor hole
- Longer bits can wander at the start until the centering tip bites
