Sutton D612 SDS Masonry Drill Bit

The Sutton D612 is a 5 x 110mm SDS masonry drill bit built for drilling concrete, brick, aerated concrete, stone and granite. Sutton describes it as up to 30 percent faster than conventional SDS drills, thanks to the patented destructor carbide tip with a Z-shape self-centring point and wavy cutting edges. The combination spiral flute clears dust away from the tip as you drill, keeping the hole clean and the bit cutting.

What You Need To Complete The Job

Use this SDS masonry bit with a rotary hammer drill, and pair it with a holesaw arbor for cutting larger openings or a pilot drill for clean starts. Drilling masonry throws dust, so add clear safety glasses and a dust mask. Browse the full General Hand Tools range for more drilling gear.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes the destructor tip different?

The patented destructor carbide tip has an aggressive Z-shape self-centring point with wavy cutting edges. The shape bites into the masonry on the point and cuts with a wavy edge that breaks the material away more aggressively than a standard tip, which is how Sutton achieves the faster drilling claim.

Is this bit for a rotary hammer drill?

Yes. The SDS shank is designed for SDS and SDS Plus rotary hammer drills, which combine rotation with a hammer action for drilling into masonry. It is not a straight shank bit for a standard drill, so check your drill chuck accepts SDS shanks before use.

What materials can I drill with this bit?

The listing covers concrete, brick, aerated concrete, stone and granite. These are the common masonry materials for anchors, fixings and penetrations in building work. For steel, timber or plasterboard you would switch to the appropriate HSS or specialist bit.

What drill should I use with an SDS bit?

An SDS bit needs a rotary hammer drill with an SDS or SDS Plus chuck, which combines rotation with a hammer action to break up masonry. A standard drill chuck will not hold an SDS shank properly. Match the drill size to the anchor or fixing you plan to install, and keep the bit cool by letting it do the work rather than forcing it.
