Shockwave 5/8 In. X 6 In. Carbide Masonry Drill Bit

The Milwaukee 48-20-9040 SHOCKWAVE Carbide Masonry Drill Bit is a professional-grade drilling tool engineered for concrete, brick, and block. This 5/8-inch diameter bit delivers up to 5 times longer life in concrete and up to 2 times faster drilling into masonry materials compared to standard drill bits, making it an essential choice for contractors, construction workers, and serious DIY enthusiasts tackling heavy-duty drilling tasks.

The wide flute design actively removes dust and debris during drilling, which reduces heat buildup and extends battery life on cordless hammer drills—a critical advantage when working on larger projects or multiple installations. The precision ground tip delivers faster starts and less walking when drilling into concrete, brick, and block, ensuring straighter, more accurate holes.

Features and Benefits

• Carbide Construction: Sharpened carbide tips deliver superior durability and extended life, reducing the frequency of bit replacement on job sites.
• Precision Ground Tip: Engineered for faster initial penetration and minimal walking, ensuring accurate holes in concrete, brick, and block.
• Wide Flute Design: Rapidly evacuates dust and debris to reduce heat generation and maximize drilling efficiency, allowing more holes per battery charge on cordless tools.
