Bosch HCFC2044 Sds-plus Rotary Hammer Drill Bit 1/4 in

Product Description

The ROBERT BOSCH TOOL GROUP HCFC2044 is a carbide SDS-Plus rotary hammer drill bit from the Bulldog Xtreme series, designed for heavy-duty concrete and masonry drilling. The bit measures 0.25 inches in diameter, with a 10-inch flute length, 10-inch useable length, and a 12-inch overall length. Diffusion Bonding Technology creates a stronger carbide-to-steel bond, extending service life compared to standard SDS-Plus bits. A centric conical tip guides the bit through concrete for rounder, more accurate holes, and a wear mark confirms that the hole diameter remains within spec throughout the bit's life. Licensed HVAC and plumbing contractors, electricians, and general tradespeople who core through concrete slabs, CMU walls, or rebar-reinforced structures will find consistent performance across demanding applications.

The HCFC2044 is optimized for use with heavy-duty SDS-Plus rotary hammers in residential and commercial construction. It is especially effective in rebar-reinforced concrete, delivering 4 times the service life in rebar compared to a standard SDS-Plus bit and 40 percent more life in concrete than competitive full-head carbide bits. The reduced carbide wear versus 2-cutter designs means each bit stays productive longer, lowering cost-per-hole on production drilling jobs. This SKU ships in a package quantity of 125 units, making it practical for stocking a job trailer or supply room.

Compatibility

Designed for use with heavy-duty SDS-Plus rotary hammers. The SDS-Plus shank interface is a standard fitment across a wide range of professional-grade rotary hammer models that accept SDS-Plus tooling.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by tradespeople using SDS-Plus rotary hammers in hammer-drill or rotary-hammer mode. Before changing or inspecting a bit, power down the tool and confirm the chuck release collar is fully engaged before inserting or removing the shank. Eye protection and hearing protection are required when operating rotary hammer equipment. Follow applicable OSHA and site-specific PPE requirements when drilling in rebar-reinforced or post-tensioned concrete structures.
