SKU CH-X8CV-17KNM

Extra-length masonry drill bit with a 13-inch reach and 1/4-inch shank for deep holes in brick, block and tile

  • Drills cinder block, brick, plaster and tile with 13 inch reach
  • Positive point angle gives quick, accurate penetration in masonry
  • 1/4 inch shank fits standard drill chucks for easy use
  • Zinc surface finish resists corrosion during storage and work
  • Extra length design reaches deep holes in hard-to-access spots

Application and suitability

The DISSTON COMPANY 233759 is a 5/16" masonry drill bit with a 13" overall length and a 1/4" shank. It is designed for tradespeople and DIY users who need to reach deeper into block, brick or tile without changing tools. The extra length suits through-fixing jobs and installations where standard bits fall short.

Design features in practice

A positive point angle allows the tip to start cleanly and penetrate quickly, reducing wandering on hard surfaces. The zinc surface finish protects the steel from corrosion during storage and on damp job sites. The bit is carded for retail display and easy identification in a tool bag.

Who should buy and who should not

This bit suits installers fixing into cinder block, common brick, plaster and ceramic tile, plus moderate work in hard brick, glazed tile and dry concrete. Users who need SDS-plus or SDS-max shanks for rotary hammers, or who require carbide-tipped bits rated for continuous heavy-duty concrete drilling, should look at other options.

Questions about this item

Will the 1/4" shank on this 5/16" bit eventually wear out or need replacing?

The 1/4" shank is integral to the bit; if it wears or damages the chuck grip, the entire 233759 bit must be replaced.

What stops the 13" extra-length bit from drilling deeper in hard materials?

The 13" overall length limits hole depth, and the positive point angle is rated only for moderate use in hard brick or dry concrete.

Does the zinc surface finish keep the bit cool during all-day drilling in cinder block?

The zinc finish resists corrosion; heat builds with continuous use, so pause periodically to let the 5/16" tip cool.
