The Simpson 5/8 in. x 6 in. Straight Shank Carbide-Tipped Drill Bit is a professional-grade masonry and concrete drilling tool engineered to deliver precise, consistent results on demanding job sites. Built to exacting tolerances and conforming to ANSI Standard B212.15, this bit combines a hardened chromium-nickel-molybdenum steel alloy body with a carbide-tipped cutting edge to handle heavy hammering applications while maintaining accuracy from the first hole to the last.

Key Features

• Uniformly brazed carbide inserts - secure, consistent carbide bonding means the cutting tip stays intact longer, reducing the need for frequent bit replacement during extended drilling sessions.
• Centering tip design - helps you spot and start each hole accurately without wandering, saving time on layout-critical work where precise hole placement matters.
• Chromium-nickel-molybdenum steel alloy body - withstands the repeated impact forces of hammer drilling, maintaining structural integrity and extending overall service life under heavy use.
• Heat-treatment procedures and shot-peened finish - increase surface hardness and drilling speed, reduce drill bit wear, and improve resistance to bending forces so the bit holds up through tough materials.
• Straight shank design - fits standard drill chucks, making this bit compatible with a wide range of rotary and hammer drill equipment without the need for adapters.
• ANSI Standard B212.15 compliance - ensures the bit meets established industry dimensional and performance requirements, giving contractors confidence in consistent, repeatable results.

Why This Product

• Premium construction built for professional demands - the combination of a carbide-tipped cutting edge and a chromium-nickel-molybdenum alloy body delivers both cutting performance and structural durability that stand up to high-frequency, heavy-duty concrete and masonry drilling.
• Engineered to tight tolerances - proprietary design features enhance drilling speed and accuracy, making this bit a reliable choice for work where clean, precisely sized holes are required.
• Longer service life means lower cost per hole - uniformly brazed carbide inserts and a hardened, shot-peened finish work together to slow wear and reduce how often bits need to be swapped out on the job.
• Versatile and easy to deploy - the straight shank configuration works with standard drill chucks found on most rotary and hammer drills, so there is no compatibility guesswork when moving between tools or job sites.
