If you need a long reach bit for anchoring holes or drilling through dense masonry, the Firecore 3/16-inch x 12-inch SDS-Plus rotary hammer drill bit is built for impact-style drilling in concrete and similar surfaces. It uses a four-cutter carbide-tipped head to help keep the bit from binding, while the centering tip supports more controlled starts when accuracy matters.

The dual-flute spiral design is made to pull dust and debris out of the hole more efficiently, which can reduce wear and keep drilling progress steadierāespecially on deeper holes where dust buildup becomes a problem. With a standard 10mm SDS-Plus shank, itās designed to fit SDS-Plus rotary hammers from brands such as Bosch, DeWalt, Milwaukee, Hilti, Makita, and Hitachi.
- 3/16 in (4.76 mm) cutting diameter and 12 in length for longer reach drilling
- 4-cutter carbide-tipped head with centering tip to help reduce sticking and improve accuracy
- 2-flute spiral design to pull dust/debris from the hole for more efficient drilling
- Standard 10mm SDS-Plus shank for SDS-Plus rotary hammer compatibility
- Made from 40CrMo alloy steel with industrial finish for durability in heavy-duty use
Good fit for DIYers and contractors working with concrete, masonry, ceramic tile, cement walls, brick, rock, and stone. For best results, pair it with an SDS-Plus rotary hammer (not a standard drill/driver chuck) and clear dust from deep holes as you go.
