Why Choose Bosch Professional?

Bosch Professional masonry drill bits stand out for their exceptional durability and cutting performance.

The precision-ground flutes remove debris efficiently, preventing bit jamming and overheating during extended use.

Professional tradesmen choose Bosch for the brand's consistent quality control and innovative technologies like the CYL-9 multi-construction geometry, which allows drilling through multiple materials without changing bits. The comprehensive range means you'll find the right bit diameter and length for any job, whilst the colour-coded systems make identification quick and easy on busy job sites. Backed by Bosch's reputation for reliability, these bits deliver outstanding value through extended service life, reducing downtime and replacement costs.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between standard and SDS masonry bits?

Standard masonry bits fit traditional 13mm chucks on hammer drills, whilst SDS (Special Direct System) bits feature a grooved shank that locks into SDS-Plus or SDS-Max chucks on rotary hammer drills. SDS systems deliver more impact energy and are more efficient for heavy-duty masonry drilling.

How long do Bosch Professional masonry bits last?

With proper use and care, Bosch Professional masonry bits significantly outlast economy alternatives. Lifespan depends on the materials drilled and drilling conditions, but professional users typically report 3-5 times longer service life compared to budget bits, making them more cost-effective over time.

Can I use Bosch masonry bits in a regular drill?

Standard Bosch masonry bits with round shanks work in any drill with hammer function. However, SDS-Plus and SDS-Max bits require compatible rotary hammer drills with the appropriate chuck system for optimal performance and safety.
