White Cap has the right tools and equipment for your jobs, no matter how big or small, and in the quantities you need.Īt White Cap Supply, we have an incredible selection of concrete and masonry bits, plus standard bits, to get your jobs done with perfection. With concrete, the stakes are considerably higher than with other materials. To drill concrete, use the pulverizing action of a rotary hammer drill with a spline or slotted design system to get the job done quickly, easily, and perfectly.Ĭoncrete/Masonry Bits Types Finding the right bit type can be the difference between a costly mistake and a precisely drilled hole. You can use some masonry bits in a standard drill for small, low impact jobs with good results, but for the best results, use a hammer drill. Masonry tips are made from hardened steel and heat-bonded to a black oxide coating to retain lubricants and prevent overheating.ĭrills: Concrete and masonry use different drills. Tips: In order to drill through hard surfaces, such as concrete, stone, even rebar, concrete tips are made from one of the world’s hardest materials: tungsten carbide.

This includes slotted design systems (SDS, SDS-Plus, SDS-Max, or Spline) chucks. Concrete bits have notched shanks to fit the slotted-design systems of rotary hammer drills. Shanks: Masonry shanks, designed to fit a 3-prong hammer drill chuck, are usually round or hex-shaped and smooth. They are not interchangeable with bits designed for glass, wood, tile, and metal surfaces unless you are using a specialty multi-material bit. Let’s look at how they differ.įabrication: Concrete and masonry bits are specifically constructed for the heavy duty pounding that they get from everyday use in hammer and rotary hammer drills. How Concrete and Masonry Bits are Different Not all bits are created equal. When drilling into concrete/masonry material, there are a few key distinctions and things you should know before choosing your masonry bit. Both the material and the size of the hole are going to determine which drill bit is right for the job.

Drilling is the biggest part of any build job.
