Milwaukee Tool 48-20-8061 Sds-plus Drill Bit 12mm

Product Description

The MILWAUKEE TOOL 48-20-8061 is a carbide-tipped SDS-Plus rotary hammer drill bit engineered for demanding concrete, masonry, and block drilling applications. The spear cutting geometry drives material clearance efficiently, while the carbide tip maintains edge integrity through repeated impact cycles. At 12mm in diameter with a 310mm overall length and a 260mm usable flute length, this bit fits directly into any SDS-Plus rotary hammer without additional adapters. Weighing 0.31 pounds, it is light enough for overhead and confined-space work without sacrificing rigidity. Licensed electricians, plumbers, HVAC mechanics, and general contractors routinely reach for bits in this class when running conduit sleeves, pipe penetrations, or anchor holes through structural concrete.

This bit is sized for residential and light commercial applications where a 12mm bore is required. Common tasks include drilling through poured concrete slabs, CMU block walls, and brick veneer for mechanical anchors, threaded rod, or penetration sleeves. The SDS-Plus shank provides positive locking and automatic release in compatible rotary hammer chucks, making bit swaps fast on the job. It ships individually and is stocked as a single-piece replacement or supplemental bit for crews that need to match an existing set without purchasing a full kit.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified tradesperson familiar with rotary hammer operation and applicable codes. Before inserting or removing the bit, power down and disconnect the tool from its power source or battery. Ensure the SDS-Plus chuck is fully seated and locked before beginning drilling. Always wear appropriate eye protection and dust controls when drilling concrete or masonry, particularly in occupied spaces.
