Bosch HC2052 5/16 x 8 SDS-plus Bulldog Rotary Hammer Bit, 2 Cutter

The Bosch HC2052 is a top - notch rotary hammer bit designed for long - lasting performance in tough jobs. Its carbide - tipped design guarantees durability even in the most challenging applications. The centric tip allows for rapid starts in concrete, saving you time. A wear mark on the bit alerts you when the tip wears beyond ANSI standards, so you know when it's time for a replacement. Thanks to an improved flute design, this bit runs cooler, reducing the risk of overheating. It comes with a single bit in the package. The optimized brazing and hardening process ensure a long lifespan. It drills 15% faster compared to S4L bits. The Bosch - made carbide tip is extremely tough and can withstand heavy loads. The proprietary hardening process results in more holes per bit, making it cost - effective. Ideal for anchoring and through - hole applications in concrete, it has a length of 8 inches, a bit diameter of 5/16 inches, and fits an SDS - Plus chuck.

Using the Bosch HC2052 is easy. First, make sure your hammer drill has an SDS - Plus chuck. Insert the bit firmly into the chuck until it locks in place. When starting to drill into concrete, hold the drill steady and apply gentle pressure. The centric tip will quickly start the hole. Keep the drill perpendicular to the surface for a straight hole. As for safety, always wear safety goggles to protect your eyes from debris. When the wear mark on the bit becomes visible, it's time to replace the bit to maintain performance and safety. To keep your bit in good shape, after each use, clean it with a wire brush to remove any concrete dust or debris. Store it in a dry place to prevent rusting. This will help your bit last longer and perform at its best.
