Choose the Correct Fit
Check the route for concealed services. Suitable materials include brick, block, concrete, steel, aluminum, ceramic tile, backerboard, wood, PVC, stucco and drywall.
Match the 1/4 in hex shank to the drill or impact connection and follow the tool’s speed guidance for the material.
Installation & Care
Hammer mode is intended for masonry and concrete. Select the appropriate mode for other layers rather than using percussion throughout.
Disconnect the tool before attaching wire to the tip hole. Clear debris and inspect the carbide tip after the bit cools.

Important Product Questions
Can it drill both masonry and metal?
Yes. It is designed for materials including brick, block, concrete, steel and aluminum, as well as wood and common wall materials.
Should I use hammer mode in every material?
No. Milwaukee calls out hammer mode for masonry and concrete. Choose the operating mode required for the other material you are drilling.
Does 18 in overall length mean 18 in drilling depth?
No. The bit has 16 in of usable length. Allow for the shank and the installed tool’s clearance when planning the route.
