Robert Bosch Tool Group HC2163 Sds Plus Rotary Hammer Bit

Product Description

The ROBERT BOSCH TOOL GROUP HC2163 is an SDS Plus rotary hammer bit designed for drilling in concrete and masonry. It measures 1 inch in diameter with an 8-inch working length and 10-inch overall length. The carbide tip is manufactured using an optimized brazing and hardening process that improves durability under heavy loads and extends service life in demanding applications. A centric tip geometry allows fast starts in concrete without wandering. An improved flute design reduces heat buildup during drilling, and a wear mark on the tip indicates when the bit has reached the ANSI wear limit. This bit is installed by electricians, plumbers, HVAC technicians, and general contractors who require anchor and through-hole penetrations in concrete.

The HC2163 is suited for residential and commercial concrete drilling applications, including anchor setting and through-hole work. It is compatible with SDS Plus rotary hammers and is particularly well matched to high-cycle anchoring tasks where consistent hole quality and bit longevity are required. Bosch rates this bit at 15 percent faster drilling compared to previous designs, making it practical for production drilling scenarios where downtime from bit changes affects job efficiency.

Key Features

• Carbide tip produced with optimized brazing and hardening process for extended service life
• Centric tip geometry provides quick, accurate starts in concrete
• Improved flute design dissipates heat to keep bit running cooler during extended use
• Wear mark alerts user when tip has worn beyond ANSI specification
• Rated 15 percent faster than previous-generation design
• Ideal for anchor setting and through-hole applications in concrete

Compatibility

Designed for use with SDS Plus rotary hammer chucks. Fits any tool equipped with a standard SDS Plus interface.

Installation Notes

This bit is installed by licensed tradespeople using SDS Plus rotary hammers. Before changing or inspecting bits, power down the tool and confirm the chuck is fully released. Inspect the wear mark before each use and replace the bit when the tip has worn to or beyond the ANSI indicator. Follow applicable OSHA and jobsite safety requirements when drilling overhead or near embedded utilities.
