Drill America DAM18X1 Carbide-Tipped Masonry Bit
The Drill America DAM18X1 is a carbide-tipped masonry drill bit designed for use with portable electric drills. It targets professionals and DIY users who need to bore deep holes in brick, concrete or sandstone. The 18 inch overall length provides extended reach for through-hole applications. A black oxide finish helps resist corrosion during storage and use.
118 Degree Conventional Point and Round Shank
The 118 degree conventional point geometry determines how the bit starts and cuts in masonry materials. Wide spiral flutes are engineered to remove dust quickly in softer substrates like brick and sandstone. The 1/2 inch round shank fits standard drill chucks without requiring a specialised holder. Carbide tips are brazed to tough steel bodies and sized larger than the nominal diameter to clear anchor screws and expansion shields.
Suited for Deep Anchor Holes in Soft Masonry
This bit suits installers drilling deep clearance holes for toggle bolts, expansion shields or anchor screws in brick, concrete and sandstone. The long 18 inch body reaches through thick walls or layered materials. Users needing SDS-plus or SDS-max shank compatibility for rotary hammers should look elsewhere. The California Proposition 65 notice indicates the product contains chemicals linked to cancer and reproductive harm.

Questions about this item
How deep can the 18-inch overall length actually reach in a real job?
The 18-inch overall length lets you drill through thick masonry walls or deep anchor holes in a single pass without needing an extension.
What does the 118-degree conventional point mean for starting holes in brick or concrete?
The 118-degree conventional point centres quickly on hard surfaces and reduces wandering when you begin each hole.
Will the 1/2-inch round shank fit my standard drill chuck without an adapter?
Yes, the 1/2-inch round shank seats directly in any three-jaw chuck that accepts half-inch bits, so no adapter is required.
